Here is a causal loop diagram on long release cycles, taken from “Lean from the Trenches” [Kniberg, 2011] and slightly modified.
Use the up and down arrows in the nodes in the model to:
- Make a release slightly bigger;
- Reduce the manual work required;
- Release a bit more often.
What happens to Delayed Revenue? What changes do you see? Do you like all the changes you see? Can you think of any structural changes you can put to use to change the dynamics of this model?
All causal loop diagrams are models
and thus they're wrong and useful at the same time.
You can remix a model to make it more closely represent your context.
Please share your remixed model with the world!
