This presentation discusses how to do portfolio planning and prioritization at scale based on experiences within one of the largest banks in The Netherlands. It presents practices that have been developed, shows examples and explains how to plan for short term (< 3 months) and longer term.
Prioritization and planning across over 25 autonomous Agile teams is hard. Especially when all work on their own contribution to department and organization goals. It gets harder when there are more than a dozen departments like this and some of them have dependencies with your own department. For over a year we have been collecting practices on how to encourage autonomy whilst keeping alignment over the departments and within teams.
This talk elaborates on these practices, shows examples of how the bank has designed portfolio walls and meetings, how they prioritize work and create options in their workload and how the teams balance between achieving their own goals and helping others achieve theirs. The organization has conducted experiments on what works best for them in over 10 departments at the same time which has provided a nice collection of practices to choose from.
