The Liberators Podcast
This is the podcast of The Liberators. Our mission is to unleash organizations and teams all across the globe from ineffective product development. We rely on insights from scientific research as much as possible so that you don't have to take our word for it.
In each episode, we look at the challenges faced by Agile teams, software teams, and product teams. We discuss relevant research, share our experiences, or challenge existing beliefs. Each episode ends with practical and actionable recommendations on what you can do with your teams.
Most episodes are written and presented by Christiaan Verwijs. Our music was written and performed by Jasper Huiskamp a.k.a. Basanite. Post-production by Jasper Huiskamp. The music for episodes before 91 is licensed from Yummy Sounds.

Troika Consulting: "My team is unable to deliver Done increments because they are struggling to slice work vertically"
In this episode we're using the Liberating Structure "Troika Consulting" to offer help to one of our listeners. Its an experiment, so let us know what you think.
One of our patrons, Sven de Koning, provided us with the following challenge: "My team is unable to deliver a done increment because they don't know how to slice items on their Product Backlog vertically. How can I help them?". In true Troika-fashion, we briefly explored the challenge in 2 minutes and then started generating ideas for what might be helpful. Although based on many assumptions, the idea here is that simply listening to other people talk about your challenge can generate ideas that you haven't considered before.
