Beyond One Happy Team: Self-Selection for a Better Culture The talent shortage is real. According to CareerBuilder research, 60% of US organizations today can't fill their open positions in 12 weeks or more. Combined with a high turnover rate, this leads to a massive loss of profit opportunities.How can we create a culture that attracts people and keeps them engaged, motivated, and well-jelled with their teams? And after they join, how do we build resilience into our teams and the organization? Empowering people to choose their own teams - a 'self-selection' - is a great vehicle to build happiness, resilience and a better culture.In this session I will share stories from running successful self-selection events in New York, Dublin and Chicago, and how I prepare technology teams and management for their first self-selection events. Participants will learn about the ingredients of successful self-selection and its positive effects on employee retention and company resiliency. They will leave this session with actionable steps, excited about their first self-selection experiment. 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.

Persuading the Bear Learn How to Build Engaged Communities Through Horizontal Influencing It was 9 pm on a Friday and I was at work. My spouse called asking when I'd be home; my boss was all over me. I had been working on a proposal for 5 months and couldn't get team, vendor and client's buy in! I became insufferable (even Ron, my best friend, declined our traditional Wednesday beer date). I changed jobs frequently, feeling disengaged, until I became physically ill. After a third round of antibiotics, I decided to quit another position and start working for myself.My feeling of disengagement was not unique. According to the Gallup engagement study, nearly 70% of employees suffer from work place disengagement - a true epidemic!For over 20 years, my personal transformation journey as a consultant and later as a leadership agile coach taught me to look for patterns in organizations. I have recognized recurring behaviours that plague unsuccessful and disengaged organizations.The overarching problem is the traditional approach to organizational power/influence which I named vertical influencing. Unsuccessful organizations suffer from high employee disengagement since they adopt vertical influence patterns.On the other hand, I discovered that successful organizations adopt a fresh paradigm of horizontal influencing. Presently, these horizontal influencing structures manifest themselves in lean agile approaches.Horizontal influencing includes a set of skills fundamental to building Dyad and Triad relationships; creating a true win-win environment at the individual, team and organizational level. Experience how to create engaged communities together, through building Horizontal influencing.

Operational Excellence Across 3 Critical Spheres Having worked in just about every corner of the world, Dr. Zeitoun has seen firsthand how challenging it is for organizations to achieve operational excellence in the midst of uncertainty. Reflecting on the opportunities he has had working across the globe, Dr. Zeitoun will explore a model for operational excellence that supports a foundation for creating a dynamic, high agility environment poised to deal with the ever-increasing pace of change.The model consists of three critical spheres or enablers: process autonomy, digitally capable people, and agile delivery-focused governance. A fast and delicate balance is needed between the spheres, and each has its own individual gauge and impact. These spheres also have an integrated effect, as they work in tandem to achieve a higher excellence scale and shape the way we work into the future.
