So, I’m a first-level manager and we basically run an ad-hoc for our team that looks like a blend of spiral and milestones.
For me, the problems arise when methodologies intended for large-scale are applied at a small scale.
What’s a methodology for anyways? To help communicate and to reason-at-scale. If you can’t communicate or reason with a single team, process isn’t going to help. But once you have 200+, then you need process!
And my larger organization does have process, it looks waterfallish repeated every six months. I just don’t apply it to my team.
