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

Toyota Kata - What is it. Where Might it Fit. and Why? Future solutions are getting less and less likely to be ones we've used before. And even if we can draw on 'experience', it may represent the lowest form of innovation which may not be good enough; we are limiting ourselves to only what we know now.Agile is about mindset, not about process.
