A Practical Guide to Introducing Agile "Don't throw your baby out with the bath Water(fall)". This is not a deep conversation about Agile v Waterfall or where to use them (that is for other talks and much deeper thinkers /agile purists). Instead, this talk acknowledges that the world we are living in is complex, where every delivery is different and not binary, i.e., Agile or Waterfall. This talk is aimed at "Non Agilists" and focuses on how they shouldn't be scared of agile and that it isn't about throwing away everything you have learnt from delivering in a more traditional/Waterfall way. It is about building on them and embracing the true mindset and heart and soul of Agile. The key takeaways of the session include: An introduction to some of the basic concepts of agile and which to focus on first How to start your journey from "Non Agilist" to a person that can deliver irrespective of environment Some of the real-life examples and approaches that have been successfully used kick start the journey for both individuals and teams
Agile's Easy, The Adoption of Agile Isn't Agile's easy, but the adoption of Agile isn't! Having spent 20 years at the front line of Agile adoptions, spanning organisations ranging from small to Enterprise in both the Private and Public sectors, this presentation will highlight some best practices for Agile adoption, including: the importance of understanding the organizational and cultural landscape, how to avoid the common bear traps and how to lay the foundations for a sustainable adoption.

If you spend 30 minutes in a qualifying PDU activity, you may report 0.50 PDU.
