If you're excited to leverage #WardleyMapping, #DDD, #ValueStreamManagement, and #TeamTopologies, order of execution can help smooth the journey.

First, clarify needs, objectives, obstacles, and a vision for your future state. You can use Outcome Mapping or a press release formula for this (ideally both).
Working backwards always helps you avoid wandering or drift from working forwards, and brings a team into alignment.

Wardley Mapping helps understand your current ecosystem and what the future could look like if you change things. This is a great place to start to discover current work streams and focus your efforts.
I just talked with a very good friend working as Senior Engineer about what I would recommend him to learn as the next steps.
He is quite a product-mindset person. He is genuinely interested in why we do things from a customer perspective.
So, next steps? ...

To have a more significant impact on the products, I suggested learning about:
- Fast Flow of Change with @TeamTopologies
- Situational Awareness with #WardleyMapping
- Domain Modelling to support Fast Flow of Change with #DDDesign

Learning those points can unlock a new way to understand how _Value is delivered_ and why/how socio-technical systems impact a product, team, and business.

Ok. This feels like an absolute anchor around my neck, but it's probably why I should do it.
Sooooo. I've been a big admirer of @swardley and sometime practitioner of #wardleymaps
Yet I don't feel like I've really developed a mapping practice that is regular and consistent. đ

This thread by @aleixmorgadas really struck a chord for me. Wardley mapping takes time and commitment. It's easy to start and stop without some catalyst to keep you on track.

I'm also confident there are many other would-be Wardley mappers like me. Solid on the theory. Avidly consumed content and dabbled in mapping, but lack confidence in taking it to the next level.
So in the spirit of building in public, I'm going to learn in public. đ

@ddd_eu 2/ During the same conference, I attended the open discussion with Dave Snowden, Andra Sonea, and Simon Wardley.
I was amazed at how they were able to communicate complexity. Yet, I was so far into understanding the concepts!

@ddd_eu 3/ The concepts described during the talks, remained back in my mind and I rewatched the videos several times during the past years.

Hoy hemos compartido algo parecido a un #wardleymap. Esta técnica nos estå ayudando mucho a:
- despejar incógnitas sobre qué se estå haciendo
- priorizar quĂ© se deberĂa estar haciendo
- comunicarlo a todos los miembros de los equipos
- poner a todo el mundo en la misma pĂĄgina

El mapa lo hemos elaborado fundamentalmente con POs (que en nuestro caso tienen muchos conocimientos tĂ©cnicos y saben bien los componentes que se estĂĄn construyendo y por quĂ©). El verano nos ha dificultado poder contar con perfiles mĂĄs tĂ©cnicos (arquitectos, lĂderes tĂ©cnicos...)
Por supuesto, tambiĂ©n estamos contando con algĂșn mando intermedio y con el CTO. La participaciĂłn de este Ășltimo estĂĄ siendo muy Ăștil porque nos ayuda a centrarnos en responder *tambiĂ©n* a sus necesidades y hacer aportaciones a su estrategia.
#wardleymapping fans. I was about to make this list myself, but figured it would be more fun as a group activity. Care to add some?

So a little while ago I wrote a reasonably popular blog about the future of EPRs and how the current crop are the walking dead, because proprietary data models are being attacked and eroded. Just a quick updated forecast: The Amazon/Cerner partnership is actually..... THREAD...
A play by Amazon. Amazon will buy Cerner, and incorporate their information model into their health platform. If they are as smart as they seem to be, they will open the code up to make an open platform. Then see what grows best, cannibalise that, further strengthening their....
Platform even further. Its classic moat and castle play in #wardleymapping. It was always going to happen, and one of the big companies was always going to do this and everyone in the old world will die. At least that's my prediction anyway đ€·ââïž
Yesterday I gave a brief introduction about #WardleyMapping at a Scrum community event in Munich. As it's currently strong beer time, I used a simple brewery example.
So let's say we are a brewery and attempt to map our main product - the beer - from a customer's perspective. The customer becomes the anchor and he craves a bottle of our beer.
To create a bottle of beer you definitely need two more components: a bottle and beer. As we are a pretty big brewery (thanks to avid Bavarian drinkers!) we put those components into the quite industrialised space already. We make our own beer and we buy standardised beer bottles
#wardleymapping #wardleymaps Time to look back and map a horrible project that didn't work because too much custom build and didn't bring right evolution axis- it was an online shop, it cost millions and is not working. lets start with easy user needs. very much simplified
#wardleymapping #wardleymaps lets maps the User needs and the components. project leader was a developer and he like to develop most things from himself. time delay of the project min 1 year
#wardleymapping #wardleymaps lets look a little bit more about the details and what was commodity. first mistake: we dont need digital marketing competencies. developer - good at java - doesnt know much about digital marketing. only a few hundret visits in a month
A few days back @swardley kindly mentioned that I have been working with Wardley maps for a long time... so I thought I would answer some questions - and if you want to know anything specific - please shout. đđ

When did you first discover mapping?
Xmas 2010 - bored - I accidentally applied to write a paper on cybersecurity in the cloud, and like many at that time I was struggling to work out what "cloud" meant - which lead me to Simon's @oscon presentation: (2/n)

This was the first time cloud made sense - and the influence is clear in the final paper (slideshare.net/JosephPindar/câŠ). After finishing the paper I read and watched everything I could find on mapping. (3/n)
Whenever I see a tool become popular (e.g. #wardleymapping #cynefin, [insert tool here]), I have a tinge of sadness (amidst a lot of gratitude).
Why? Bc it reinforces for some ppl that the lack of âtoolâ was âthe problemâ all along. Tools help. But itâs not âthe problemâ .(1/3)

I remember a decade ago having an awesome whiteboarding session. We werenât âdoing Xâ exactly, but we were improvising well. We were grounded in first principles. We got so much mileage from those conversations.

Whenever you have a new Way ... you have the Way of Ways. As you move further along this path, youâll get shallower and shallower interpretations. Less context. Less awareness of the influences, prior work. More silver-bullet-ism (3/4)
