As a Scrum Master / Team Coach, I have in my team a junior developer who is struggling with delivering in time. As an ADD:er and therefore a creative mind, I asked myself the question "Can ACA's 12 steps be used to help they?" I first tried to ask ChatGPT to adapt the steps to agile, but the service was down so I did it myself. Here is the result. Not bad if you ask me.
1. We recognized that we had a stopper, and we were powerless before the effects of our working situation had become unmanageable. We could risk not delivering in time.
2. Come to believe that a power greater than ourselves could restore our sanity.
3. Made a decision to surrender our will and our stopper to the team's care, as we perceived the team.
4. Took a thorough and fearless moral inventory of ourselves.
5. Confessed to the team, ourselves, and another colleague we trust, the exact meaning of our faults.
6. We became completely ready to let the team remove all these code defects and our character defects.
7. Humbly asked the team to remove our shortcomings.
8. Made a list of all the colleagues we had hurt and became willing to make amends to them all.
9. Made direct reparations to these people wherever possible, except then this
would harm them or others.
10. Continued to do personal inventory and when we were wrong we admitted it right away.
11. Seeking through prayer and meditation to improve our conscious contact with the team, such we perceive the team, and then only ask for knowledge of the team's will with us and power to perform it.
12. When we had an agile awakening as a result of these steps, we tried to pass this message on to others who were still suffering and to apply these principles in all our affairs.
Character defect is often egoism. You don't want to be seen as a junior not knowing everything.
