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

Big Agile: It's Not Just For Small Projects Anymore One of the stereotypes of Agile approaches is that they only work for small projects. However, over the last several years, Agile techniques are now being applied to increasingly larger and more complex environments. From the largest telecom in Europe to the largest chip-maker in the world, large organizations are changing the way they do work. But how is this possible? How does self-organization work for a thousand people? How do programs run without plans? How can a massive solution go to market in a matter of weeks? In this illuminating session, we will explore both a common, repeatable approach and case studies from the real world. Come learn both recent trends and actionable tips for growing out of small Agile to big Agile. This and other IIL Learning in Minutes presentations qualify for PDUs. Some titles, such as Agile-related topics may qualify for other continuing education credits such as SEUs, or CEUs. Each professional development activity yields one PDU for one hour spent engaged in the activity. Some limitations apply and can be found in the Ways to Earn PDUs section that discusses PDU activities and associated policies. Fractions of PDUs may also be reported. The smallest increment of a PDU that can be reported is 0.25. This means that if you spent 15 minutes participating in a qualifying PDU activity, you may report 0.25 PDU. If you spend 30 minutes in a qualifying PDU activity, you may report 0.50 PDU.

Creating Your Organization's Business Agility Strategy Optimally, your organization's business strategy and business agility strategy are completely coupled together, one seamlessly supporting the other. Practically, what many organizations experience today is a tug-of-war between their business strategy and this thing called 'business agility.' Or, a lack of business agility strategy altogether, leaving the business strategy more susceptible, and even fragile, when unforeseen changes inevitably occur. We need a way to think about business agility, coupled with business strategy, so that we can live into the reality of harnessing change for good. This session will expose you to a recently published body of work, Domains of Business Agility, which serves as a model for creating business agility strategy. Think of it as a skeleton, or a thinking tool. Used this way, the model allows leaders to answer the question, 'How much business agility do we need in various parts of our organization as a seamless support to our overall business strategy?' In this session, Lyssa Adkins, author of Coaching Agile Teams and Agile/Leadership Coach, leads you through the key steps for creating such a business agility/business strategy. This and other IIL Learning in Minutes presentations qualify for PDUs. Some titles, such as Agile-related topics may qualify for other continuing education credits such as SEUs, or CEUs.

eduScrum: Turning Education Upside Down Our world is transforming at a rapid and exponential rate. The adoption rate for new inventions is ever decreasing and requires flexible and responsive organizations with people with the right skills rather than with knowledge. Although, when we look at schools we still see the remains of an industrial age, while we have already moved to an information age and now about to enter the age of creativity. This is not so in schools, students are still sitting in rows like factory lines and only required to come up with a single right answer as provided by the teacher. Teachers are no longer the owners of the 'well of information'. Information is abundant and it is a challenge to deal with that. Creativity is needed to come up with new approaches and insights. That's what our children will need when they enter the market. Many schools know that they will have to do something with 21st century skills but very few are successful in making it happen. EduScrum, a framework adapted from Scrum, has already baked in some of the 21st century skills and can provide guidance for other skills to be used. A shift is needed to help students to develop as human beings, and let them make progress in their personal qualities.

Bridging the Gap with Agile Learn how a large cloud-computing enterprise used Flawless ExecutionSM, a remarkably scalable agile business framework, across diverse business teams including their Marketing Team, Legal Team, C-Suite and even the Sales Group functional teams that are notorious for avoiding agile methodologies. As part of a major merger, the company sought to unite two sales teams that were not strategically aligned and didn't have a customer-focused mindset. Just as agile methodologies help developers keep the customer at the forefront of the conversation, this sales organization used the agile techniques and practices of Flawless ExecutionSM, to align around the customer's needs, scale best practices, and shift the culture to a more customer-centric mindset. Result: after an abysmal first half in 2016, the team rallied together after implementing Flawless Execution as their process of record over the summer and beat their sales forecast by 17% in Q4. This had an impact on morale for the 22,000-person company and even increased the stock price by 10%. This and other IILLearning in Minutes presentations qualify for PDUs.
