Pull & Swarm | #66

Pull & Swarm is a technique for approaching the workload in front of a small team. It amounts to pulling one story from our queue at a time, and throwing all of our resources and humans at the same story at the same time. P&S can be useful to Scrum-based teams, but also to any small team using any method. Some teams I have worked with have done *pure* P&S. No planning as a group at all, no ceremonies, just make a queue with a half-dozen things in it, pull one, finish it, on to the next. But even within a Scrum framework, P&S is valuable: in that context it's more about how we work between sprint planning and sprint review.  --- You can read the full transcription of this podcast over on GeePawHill.org.
