I was interested in understanding what have influenced me for coming up with such recipe. I did use a retrospective activity for it. I used <a href=\"https:\/\/www.funretrospectives.com\/the-story-of-a-story\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">the story of a story retrospective activity<\/a>. The activity result helped me understanding the path that took me to the ToThePoint book. Looking at my own timeline (from 2006 to today), I have created the following mindmap which summarizes it.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1450\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/caroli.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2015\/04\/mindmap1.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1450\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1450\" src=\"https:\/\/caroli.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2015\/04\/mindmap1-300x199.png\" alt=\"mindmap\" width=\"300\" height=\"199\" srcset=\"https:\/\/caroli.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2015\/04\/mindmap1-300x199.png 300w, https:\/\/caroli.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2015\/04\/mindmap1-1024x680.png 1024w, https:\/\/caroli.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2015\/04\/mindmap1.png 1423w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-1450\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">ToThePoint book mindmap<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Basically there were three major influences on this book:<\/p>\n<h2>Lean Start-up<\/h2>\n<p>I have lived on Silicon Valley from 2000 to 2007. I worked on several start-ups back on these days. But I felt the learning cycle&#8211;from idea to a real product\u2014was way too long. \u00a0Such feeling drove me towards the Lean Start-up movement, which culminated with <a href=\"https:\/\/theleanstartup.com\/book\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Eric Ries amazing Lean Start-up book (2010)<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>Agile<\/h2>\n<p>Since 2000 I have been using Agile Methodologies. In 2000 I met Kent Beck at the <a href=\"https:\/\/caroli.org\/en\/oopsla-2000\/\">OOPSLA conference.<\/a> I bought his newly released book and started using XP practices as a developer. In 2006 I joined <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thoughtworks.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Thoughtworks<\/a> and got exposed to many people using all sorts of agile methodologies. \u00a0Scrum, Kanban and FDD are some of the names that influenced me the most. After a few years my understanding was beyond a framework or its practices. Principles and value started being natural to me.<\/p>\n<h2>Design Thinking<\/h2>\n<p>I was first introduced to <em>Design Thinking<\/em> several years ago by Jeff Patton. It was 2006 when I was introduced to the collaborative agile inceptions, and many activities around personas, user journeys and story mapping. Then I got <em>Design Thinking<\/em> into every day development and product planning meetings. When I started leading the product discovery phase, design thinking was my facilitation and work style.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Post update: ToThePoint was the eBook that evolved into the Lean Inception book. &#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212; Last night I did a mindmap on the ToThePoint book.
