A taxonomy of instruments for Agile [juin 2018]

To market the business tools created by its Paris based SME, Tru Do-Khac needed to make a taxonomy.

A first taxonomy was figured out :

1. Shared language
2. Design canvas on kanban board
3. Joyful collaborative tool
4. Coaching game [1].

Unfortunately,  when applied to  Luke Hohmann's  "Innovation Games" family [2] which features 12 games / workshops, it was felt not satisfactory enough.

So a second one was thought out, starting with four branches as well.

1. Framework
2. Method
3. Design canvas
4. Agile game.

The result is shown with the matrix underneath, where the 12 games / workshops come in the same order as in the official site [3]

An Agile instruments taxonomy : POC with Luke Hohmann "Innovation games" family

The taxonomy was then used to make a revision of  the study "Instruments for Agile IT" realised early 2018 by Tru [4].

So far, the taxonomy seems to work all right and Tru has refined it since [5].
