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

Scaling with Simplicity - How to Eliminate Complexity in Large Agile Programs As agile thought leaders debate if agile at scale is really "agile" many of us who work in the trenches understand that scaling is sometimes necessary. We work in legacy environments and on complex codebases that require coordination. Our organizations may be working towards independent teams and a microservices architecture, but even the migrations required to get there demand scaling. This talk will help participants reduce complexity in scaled organizations and simplify their program framework. Attendees will receive actionable recommendations to help them execute more efficiently starting today. With a heavy focus on eliminating dependencies and effective planning, the presentation will help attendees bring simplicity to even the most complex scaled programs. Interspersed through the presentation will be real-life examples of successes and failures so attendees can understand how to put ideas into action. Attendees will also receive tips on influencing leadership to adopt these recommendations, empowering them to drive sustainable change. Key takeaways: How to simplify a program's operating model Tips for eliminating dependencies and managing through dependencies that can't be cut How to overcome two problems no amount of planning can solve for: bad requirements and unstable priorities Strategies to reduce the impact of prioritization changes How to influence the change necessary to build a better managed program

What Leaders Need to Know About Unconscious Bias How many decisions have you made today that were driven by impulse or bias? If your answer is "none" or "very few," then two things are almost certainly true: you are human you are wrong. Every second, our brains receive more than 11 million bits of information, but our conscious minds can only process 40 bits per second. What this means is that most of the information that we take in from the world around us gets processed at a level below our conscious awareness. In this presentation, we will explore aspects of brain science related to bias, examining some of the more prevalent cognitive biases that exist. We will take a look at some of the shocking data around unconscious bias and investigate its impact in the workplace. Finally, we'll learn about the work that the most forward-thinking companies - like Google and Facebook - are doing to help their employees understand, recognize, and mitigate the effects of unconscious bias in the workplace.

Lead with Joy! You won't get to joy by leading the way you always led. You, the leader, will need to make a change, serious change. In this talk, Rich will explore his own journey to joy, how he had to learn to lead in a completely different way, by doing so, witnessed results that exceeded his wildest expectations. In this talk, Rich will use this example and by analogy apply it to the human teams we are leading. The message is simple: when we finally understand the relevant principles (in flight, or in teams), we can fly to heights and distances that were previously unimaginable. Rich will take you on a journey of change and bring you to the place he is now ... that we stand at the vanguard of understanding what it takes to unleash the human potential of the people who work for us and around us. He will explain how the common, unchanging, disengagement statistics are a fundamental failure of leadership and what simple things we can do to get our teams off the ground and flying.
