And yet the only conversation in my daily stand up is a request to make sure the tickets are all in the right column on the board and deep consternation if the ticket has to be changed or gasp dropped in some way.
If I can look at a board such that I don't have to ask in standup what's going on with a ticket (unless it's going much longer than expected), then we can use that for more valuable conversations.
The whole point of the standup should be to handle learnings like "we don't need this work" or "we're doing the wrong thing. Let's fix that!"
"Individuals and interactions over processes and tools" does not mean no processes and tools. It means the processes and tools used in the organization should facilitate and enhance individual interactions. Everything on the right is still there, it just is used to enhance and promote what's on the left.
The best term I've heard used for this is Minimum Viable Bureaucracy. You can't ever get rid of all of it, and you shouldn't.
