After over a decade of agile transformations. many organizations have several years of agile experience of agile are naturally looking for signs that the change is complete. Attention turns to the level of skill or maturity an organization needs in order to declare the transformation a success. As a result. models of agile maturity have emerged that promise to somehow measure how agile you are.The good news is that agile. by definition. should be iteratively delivering value from the moment a transformation starts. Looking back. your ability to deliver has already changed immeasurably. You are already faster. more focused. and delivering a product with higher quality. The bad news is that you have only just started your journey. Change itself has changed. as Gary Hamel said. What looks mature today will be 'bare essentials' tomorrow.Using the concept of Wardley Maps. we will talk about what agile maturity looks like today. and where agile maturity will go in the future. We will learn how iterative value delivery is the price to pay to move along the experience curve. The more frequently you deliver value. the faster you move along the experience curve. By introducing a model of increasing agility. you will be able to map out the path of your transformation. filling in any gaps that you may have and beginning to understand what direction your transformation may take you in the future. What you will Learn Key Takeaways: Differentiate between maturity models and development models. and apply the right model in the right situation Learn how to apply Wardley Mapping to your agile transformation strategy

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.

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.

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. Mindset can support agile behaviors or can hinder them. Improvement exercises involve multiple people or groups working on different parts of the puzzle; how they understand customer needs and how they collaborate to create a cohesive whole can greatly influence success. So the most important question becomes, 'How might we develop an Agile mindset?'The connection between Agile and Toyota Kata is intriguing. When you look into why, it's actually quite plain and simple. Further, when you have an understanding of Toyota Kata, how it came about and why, then its potential value to those adopting Agile shines through even more so. You will recognize the potential of the 2 unintentionally hidden managerial routines at Toyota from which 'Toyota Kata' was born."One of the best, compact introductions to Toyota Kata that I've seen!" (Quote by Mike Rother, author of 'Toyota Kata', following a presentation by Oscar in Austin TX in Feb 2020.) In this session you will: See the connection between Agile and Toyota Kata and their common ancestry See why the most success in the future will come to those who can rapidly adapt and innovate Understand that a concept or model alone generally won't change behaviors (and why), but a practice routine will Understand the 2 'Kata' patterns and get a feel for how you can start your application of them, one in particular

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.

Use Fast Feedback to Accelerate Business Agility w/ David Grabel Software engineers get feedback from their development environment and automated test suites in real-time. Errors can be fixed and verified in minutes. However, when organizations extend Agile beyond technology, feedback from stakeholders takes days and the 'feedback frenzies' can drag on for weeks or even months. Completing a story within a sprint seems impossible. It is time for 'the business' to dramatically reduce lead time and stop getting blamed for delays. This talk will show you how to quickly create a value stream mapping with your team. This map will expose needless delays and help you find ways to shorten cycle time to minutes, reducing overall lead time by 80% or more. It will include a way to overlay feedback loops on the value stream map, which can help you find the source of significant delays. You will also hear how creative teams are adapting mob programming techniques into their work in ways that build feedback into their processes in order to accelerate delivery from business teams.
