Peter Zylka-Greger

Hi, I’m Peter!

For years I have been fortunate enough to work with teams all over the world. It is something that I thoroughly enjoy and that helped me to see what a great team is capable of achieving.

But it also showed me that it is not just done by putting individuals into a group and mixing them with others. Having a variety of techniques, emotional intelligence and a good toolkit at hand are very helpful.

I currently spend my working time working as a Lead Enablement Coach at a fintech company in Switzerland and also do spend some time working on our fun project called “LetPeopleWork” with my colleague Benjamin Huser-Berta.

I do like the combination as it allows me to experiment a lot and see what actually works in the “real life” and what does not.
At my fintech company we are framework agnostic and this proved to be the best thing that could have happened to us and therefore can focus a lot on the things that matter, hence also the inspiration for the talk which combines the experience with the knowledge from the stuff we do at LetPeopleWork.

How it's all connected: From Flow Metrics to Product KPIs

Shipping fast is good, knowing when you’ll ship is better.

Shipping the right thing, at the right moment, is what moves the needle.

In this short talk we’ll show how linking Flow Metrics & Forecasts with clear Product KPIs closes the gap between delivery performance and business outcomes.

Using a lightweight “Value Architecture” canvas and real team data, we’ll walk end-to-end through:
1. Innovation funnel – capture & score ideas against strategic KPIs.
2. Flow & Forecasting – using data and MC Simulations to forecast when a feature will ship.
3. KPI impact modeling – predict when the metric will move—and by how much.
4. Go-to-Market loop – validate the prediction, learn, and feed the next bets.

Imagine being able to change the conversation from “When is Feature X done?” to “Metric Y is slipping: Here are three bets and the potential dates they’ll restore the trend.”

Peter will speak together with Benjamin Huser-Berta.

Workshop—Flowbeya: How visualizing Flow Metrics can guide your Team

In this highly interactive workshop, the participants will be introduced to two concepts: Flow Metrics and Obeya. Through hands-on exercises, they'll learn how to those concepts on their own can help their teams and organization to improve their effectiveness. In the second part of the workshop, the participants will learn how to combine both concepts and how this will support teams in their journey to self-management by visualizing this data.
Throughout the workshop, there will be hands-on exercises. The participants will either use their own experience or be based on real examples we've experienced throughout our careers.

After the workshop, the participants can apply what they learned in their environments. In detail, the participants will
1. Understand what flow metrics are and how they can be useful to drive continuous improvement
2. Know what an Obeya is (compared to a regular Dashboard) and how it helps drive self-management
3. Learn how blending both concepts will increase effectiveness
4. Know how to get started in their environment

Peter will do the workshop together with Benjamin Huser-Berta.
