10 Year Retrospective of Agile Workshop

Workshop Approach
10 subject areas with a facilitator
Define strengths and weaknesses (the last 10 years) opportunities and threats (the next 10 years).
‘ Open Space’ - Go to the next subject area that interests you
Every 10 minutes move to another subject area. Review what has been created by others & add your views in separate post-its.
15 people maximum during any 10 minutes slot at one subject area location
Facilitator ensure the post-it notes are arranged so that they can be photographed for dissemination at the end of the workshop.

10 Year Retrospective of Agile
01
Agile Manifesto & Principles Does this still reflect the agile community? Should it be changed?

02
Agile Frameworks
Is there any one ‘single answer’? Do the agile frameworks integrate? Do we have the business coverage we need?

03
Agile Implementations
Have implementations of agile within organisations been agile or ‘fragile’? Is the world really changing to ‘Disciplined Agile’ or is it ‘ Wagile ’ (Agile within Waterfall)?

04
Enterprise Agile
Is Agile only really still within individual teams? Or have we seen implementations across portfolio, programme and project management as well?

05
Business / Corporate Agile
Has Agile penetrated the non-IT space? Is it likely to?

06
Agile & People
Is enough emphasis placed on the human aspects of change to Agile? Should emphasis be placed in this area? Will it be?

07
Agile & the Public Sector
We saw some movement in 2011 towards Agile implementation within the public sector. Has this happened previously? Will it happen in the future?

08
Agile in Regulated Environments
Agile and fixed price contracts. Implementation of Agile in environments where certain things must be legally implemented.

09
Agile Tooling
Do we have a good portfolio of Agile planning and delivery tools available? Are certain environments lacking? What will the next generation of tools be?

10
Agile & the BCS
Have we done any work in this area before? What should we do in the future?
