What would the A-Team do? by Andrew Hiles

The success of Agile relies heavily on the performance of “the team”. The Agile manifesto principles refer to the team directly and on closer inspection relies heavily on the team as a key component to the success of the Agile principle. Frameworks such as Scrum, XP, DSDM all refer to the team, but all in a very different composition. In my talk I hope to cover the essential meaning of what an Agile team is and show directly an example of a team evolution. The main premise is to look at the organizational dysfunctions such as constraints, processes and rules that not only hurt teams, but teams and organizations could use to their advantage to make sure they are at the top of their game.

There must be something
else going on here?

Business people and developers
must work together daily throughout
the project

Build projects around motivated
individuals. Give them the
environment and support they
need, and trust them to get the
job done

The most efﬁcient and effective
method of conveying information
to and within a development
team is face-to-face
conversation

The best architectures,
requirements, and designs
emerge from self-organizing
teams.

Respect for People is one of the pillars of Lean. If you read the Lean-Agile literature or attend conferences, you will hear plenty about culture. However, these ideas usually aren’t presented as systematically and tangibly as the process tools. Most of the Lean principles that we study are focused on the other pillar, Continuous Improvement. Cultural ideas may be mixed in there but in a way that’s hard to untangle. Or, at the risk of ruffling some feathers, they may seem overly touchy-feely or theoretical brain science-y. That’s a real shame. A business can’t just be a nice place to work, full of nice people; it must deliver a steady stream of results for customers and financial stakeholders. But the best long-term results come from providing a sustainable, healthy work environment. So investing in a strong culture is a wise decision for executives and managers. This talk will explore some key ideas around team structure and the responsibilities of both team members and managers in a respectful Lean-Agile company. It will present a candidate set of seven principles to spell out Respect for People to match those for Continuous Improvement. And it will share some of the source material from which these ideas are derived.

Respect for People - Lean's neglected pillar

Creatives want planners to give them inspiring insights, single-minded propositions, and clear problem statements. Clients want frameworks, effectiveness, a bit of retro-engineering every now and then, and lately also crisis management advice. Planning heads want gut, empathy, curiosity, and interesting methods to unearth human truths. Suits usually want pretty PowerPoint decks. But what about agency heads? Do they even care? This talk aims at giving a (slightly biased) perspective on agency leaders’ expectations for strategists. It will answer questions such as ‘what’s the value of strategy from an agency leadership perspective’ or ‘how do planners fit into the company’s overall growth agenda’. The topics covered also provide a blueprint for convincing agency leaders of strategy’s worth in case they’re too short-sighted to see it.

The Digital Conversationalist

Keynote for the AICPA Global Manufacturing ConferenceThe number one issue facing businesses is a need to innovate. Innovationis fundamentally about learning and how to keep your rate of learning (as individuals and as organizations) greater than the rate of change and greater than your competition. We think (and research supports this) it is time for a “paradigm shift” in talent development and learning. The need for a strategic and systematic approach to talent development already is under way in many high-performing organizations. Are you ready for these sweeping, even disruptive trends? Participants will learn: • The latest trends in learning and talent development facing organizations • How to approach learning and talent development in a strategic and systematic way and develop five action steps to take back with the

Having a badass team doesn't "just happen" — you have to work on it. These guys have done that and with the very best, so we decided to fly them over to Paris so you can learn from their exceptional experiences. Daniel Pepper, who was early engineer and manager at Facebook. He spent almost five years at Facebook in the early days, helping build technology to scale the company to a billion users and tackling everything from distributed compilers to running an international engineering training program. Niket Desai, entrepreneur & previously Chief of Staff at Flipkart. This awesome guy previously co-founded Punchd, a mobile loyalty startup, which was acquired by Google and recently was Chief of Staff at Flipkart in Bangalore. Flipkart is the leading online shopping site in the fast growing Indian market, and Amazon's main local competitor.
