Personal Agility: Being Agile Starts with You The emphasis of agile has always been on the power of the team and the agility of the organization. However, we have skipped one important part: YOU as an individual! Being agile isn't about the processes or practices (we are just doing agile at that point) but about the shift needed in culture and mindset. The only way to change the culture is to take a human-centered approach by starting with ourselves first to understand our current beliefs and biases. During this session, participants will explore through a series of exercises how they currently embody the agile values and principles and where they struggle. Understand your own personal agility Understand the impact your agility has on how you operate within your teams and your organization Gain some new tools to support others in discovering their own personal agility and self-reflection
