#Scrumtisch #Cologne: Valuable Insights for Our #Research on the #AgileMindset
(Deutsche Version unten)
Last week, I had the opportunity to facilitate an Open Space session at Scrumtisch Cologne, where I shared insights about our new research on the agile mindset, conducted in collaboration with Christiaan Verwijs from #Columinity.
After a brief scientific introduction, I presented our new research model, which builds upon the work of other researchers (e.g., Kristin Geffers, Necmettin Özkan, Tabea Augner, Prof. Dr. Carsten C. Schermuly, Christoph Peters).
Many questions remain open:
What factors support the development of an agile mindset? What obstacles stand in the way? Is the agile mindset an individual trait, or can it develop at the team level? Does everyone on the team need to have an agile mindset? How does an agile mindset impact team effectiveness and morale?
We immediately tested our #survey to validate the new research model. Thanks to the valuable #feedback, we can further refine both the model and the survey.
A huge thank you to all participants for the insightful exchange – during the session, before, and after! It's always amazing to immerse myself in the agile community in Cologne.

#Scrumtisch #Köln: Wertvolle Impulse für unsere #Forschung zum #AgileMindset
Letzte Woche hatte ich die Gelegenheit, eine Open Space Session beim Scrumtisch Köln zu moderieren. Dort habe ich von unserer neuen Forschung zum agilen Mindset erzählt, die wir gemeinsam mit Christiaan Verwijs von #Columinity durchführen.
Nach einem kurzen wissenschaftlichen Einstieg habe ich unser neues Forschungsmodell vorgestellt, das auf der Arbeit anderer Wissenschaftler*innen aufbaut (z. B. Kristin Geffers, Necmettin Özkan, Tabea Augner, Prof. Dr. Carsten C. Schermuly, Christoph Peters).
Es gibt noch viele offene Fragen: Welche Faktoren fördern die Entwicklung eines agilen Mindsets? Welche Hindernisse stehen im Weg? Ist das agile Mindset eine individuelle Eigenschaft oder kann es sich auf Team-Ebene entwickeln? Muss jede*r im Team ein agiles Mindset haben? Wie beeinflusst ein agiles Mindset die Team-Effektivität und -Moral?
Wir haben direkt unsere #Umfrage zur Validierung des neuen Forschungsmodells getestet. Dank des wertvollen #Feedbacks können wir das Modell und die Umfrage weiter verfeinern.
Danke an alle Teilnehmenden für den spannenden Austausch – in der Session, davor und danach! Es ist immer großartig, in die agile Community in Köln einzutauchen.

Does species richness ensure #resilience? Karatayev et al. show that it does not: Alternative consumer- or resource-dominated states can arise in #foodWebs with low trait #diversity or high functional redundancy. Thus diversity only limits the #feedbacks that can produce #alternativeStableStates.

"Such “laws” thus are really rules of thumb, statistical regularities that admit many exceptions and variations. Why do such regularities exist at all? Do they represent something unique to the number of species on islands? Or are they the natural consequences of a set of local rules of interaction that are common to a whole class of #ComplexAdaptiveSystems [...]?" [1]

"#Ecosystem development becomes channeled into one of a limited number of typical #patterns determined by local environmental conditions as well as by initial events early in their [...] development. If we were to classify each system type in terms of a basic organizational plan, we would have a powerful tool in developing a general theory of ecosystem structure and functioning" [1]
No hay nada como leerse constantemente la bibliografía para ver cómo los investigadores están cada día más preocupados por la posibilidad real de un colapso ecológico y social.

Here’s a (low-res) snapshot from SWIM model. Cogs represent science modules. The main cause-effect loop goes clockwise, from #demography through to #climate, but some #feedbacks cut across. Adjust any parameter (of ~250), and plots respond immediately, showing relative sensitivity to options and uncertainties. (Note: plots are SVG - wish we could post #svg directly to mastodon, more efficient for graphics - open the model with a big screen, try how it zooms - https://swim.benmatthews.eu

"Over the past 20 years, wetland methane emissions have risen by 1.2-1.4m tonnes per year. This is faster than the average projection under the most pessimistic emission scenario (RCP8.5), which shows growth of 0.9m tonnes of methane per year.
The paper “adds further weight to conclusions made in many other recent studies that #methane emissions associated with #wetlands are rising fast in response to positive #climate #Feedbacks "

Before Christmas I had a long chat with Dan Bennettt of the BBC about #viruses in the #Arctic and the risks they pose in the context of #climate change.
It may sound like it, but I promise I wasn't speaking down a drainpipe, just in my office's questionable acoustics - but a wide ranging chat about #microbes, #permafrost, #glaciers #feedbacks #genomics #WelshWeather https://www.sciencefocus.com/planet-earth/instant-genius-podcast-zombie-viruses-arctic/
Proponents of capitalism and economic libertarianism are constantly demagoguing that world conditions are "better than ever."
Every year this gets more false. Particularly because fossil fueled climate change is wiping out prior gains.
Growth in renewable energy has reduced the increase in temperature in the past 5 years. But we're still far off track from meeting #climate goals. Runaway climate #feedbacks are still a looming threat.
#Capitalism is the disease, and can never be the cure.
