Communities
An AI & Agile Alignment Ecosystem
Eco – “From Community” – is critical to alignment. Agile and Lean frameworks too often form politically charged cults. In the XSCALE Alliance we leverage the XSCALE patterns to align our decisions to mutual benefit.
Commerce is critical for any organization to grow so we must serve competing commercial interests. Our Alliance lives in the positive-sum intersection of these, enabling us to interoperate and collaborate in the mode of contributors to the Linux ecosystem.
Don’t let it be forgot
That once there was a spot …
XSCALE’s Camelot Model powers our communities’ ability to to align themselves. Xscale.co makes a platform for this purpose combining virtual spaces, 3D Kanban, and social network groups across our three principal communities:
Coaches: seasoned, independent pros delivering AI & Agile Alignment.
Practitioners: change leaders applying XSCALE practices.
Partners: consultancies and professional groups invested in the AI & AA Manifesto.
Open-book, Open-core
Open Platform
XSCALE’s model is Open Core. Everything is licensed CC-BY-SA except course collateral shared as CC-BY-NC-ND. XSCALE Coaches gain a commercial license to this core, and contribute to it too under a Harmony CLA.
To work as an open platform for independent coaches, XSCALE takes no margin on coaching fees, only training and event fees in a globally standardized A+B+C split:
A: 15% to XSCALE for licensing
B: 25% to sales & relationship partners
C: 60% to engaged coaches.
