The key benefit of Agile and Lean approaches is delivered customer value with less haste, with seamless workload and higher quality, all at the same time. This is what makes our customers and delivery teams happy, right? But how can we achieve this state? How to implement Agile/Lean over the whole value delivery chain? The only sustainable approach is to start with the mindset and cultural change linked to enterprise strategy, openly communicate and collaborate. This step is long term effort and is not easy. We will share our lessons (covering tools and our approach) about coaching delivery teams towards improving and independent teams.

Structuring for success - Developing a dynamic structure for your marketing t...B2B Marketing
With marketing evolving rapidly in response to adoption of emerging digital communication techniques and changing buyer behaviour, it's imperative that the skill set of the marketing function evolves too, to reflect this and to enable the brand to compete effectively in the digital age.
Furthermore, marketing must be able to concisely communicate and report on the value of what they are delivering for the organisation, to all departments and particularly to the board. Fresh from delivering Deloitte's Olympics sponsorship, brand and marketing director Annabel Pritchard will focus on how to build a marketing function that's fit for purpose and structured around delivering clear and measurable business benefits. This session will cover:
•Structuring the team - ensuring a dynamic mix of specialisms across the marketing function
•Managing and nurturing the marketing team - encouraging learning and skills development
•Raising the profile of marketing - reporting value to the Board and championing the value of marketing across the business.

Idea a simple framework for complex alliances -asap 20120306-issue1Subhojit Roye
Tuesday, March 6, 2012 at 6:30PM
In one of the first of several Tuesday afternoon 2012 Global Alliance Summit sessions, Subhojit Roye, head of alliances at Infosys BPO Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of Infosys Limited, revealed the company’s IDEA (Identify, Define, Establish, Assess) partner development process. The four stages of Infosys’ partner framework can be summarized as follows:
Identify– What to do before meeting with a new partner
Define– What to do when you meet a new partner for the first time
Establish– How do you win the first clients with your new partner?
Assess– How do you improve upon the relationship moving forward after the initial win(s)?
Roye took the attendees through his company’s “2+2+2” engagement process—”my two, your two, plus our two.”
My two– Introduce your new partner to select clients of your organization.
Your two– Have your partner take you into TWO of its clients where your company has no presence, then practice pitching each other and articulating the new partner’s value proposition.
Our two– Choose TWO accounts where neither are present and invest in joint marketing for these prospects.
The three Enterprise Innovation Networks The Irish Software Association (ISIN), Industry Research & Development Group (IRDG) and the Construction IT Alliance (CITA) EIN, all funded by Enterprise Ireland hosted a joint seminar on Tuesday 23rd October 2012 in the Dublin City Council offices on Wood Quay from 08.00am - 11.00am. There were 80 delegates in attendance and an additional 20 viewing the event online. The intention of this event was to focus on the need to Collaborate to Innovate for a successful future.
The Opening address was given by Mr Greg Treston from Enterprise Ireland. Greg is Head of Research & Innovation. There was then a short Introduction to each of the Enterprise Innovation Networks. Speakers included Paul Sweetman of ISIN, Denis Hayes of IRDG and Suzanne Purcell of CITA EIN. This was followed by presentation on Collaborating with Third Level Research Institutes by John Whelan, Trinity College Technology Transfer Office and Tom Flanagan, DIT Hothouse. Three case Studies followed. Case Study 1: Dr. Yvonne Traynor, Henkel Case. Study 2: Sean Giblin, Cylon Controls. Case Study 3: Anthony McCauley, Fujitsu
This presentation was prepared for local Agile meetup and proposes 4 evolution phases of Agile in organization. It is not based on data research nor is it a formal framework, but rather intuitive phases based on my experience with dozens of companies implementing Agile in middle Europe.
Each phases describes its goal as well as a phase checklist to know in which phase you fit. I also enclosed the proposed role of Scrum Master as an important contributor in each phase.
What is your opinion? What is missing?
Jdete za kolegou, protože potřebujete dokončit svůj úkol v termínu a ptáte se ho na radu jak to udělal posledně... Překvapivou odpovědí je vám otázka: „... a jak bys to udělal ty?“ V tu chvíli vám spadne čelist, projedou možné scénáře prošvihnutého projektu a nakonec máte chuť jej zabít...
Tento scénář už asi zažilo hodně z nás. Koučink je výborný nástroj rozvoje potenciálu, ale ne vždy má smysl jej používat. Musí sedět oběma účastníkům a hlavně danému kontextu. Velmi vhodné je proto kombinovat koučování s mentoringem. Ve spleti a modernosti koučů se však na (interní) mentory v našich firmách jaksi zapomnělo. Jak se tedy takový mentor pozná? Jak se liší od kouče? Co a jak by měl dělat? Kde je jejich místo? Jak to nepřehnat?
V aktuálním shonu po mladých talentech, generaci Y a zapojování studentů do pracovního procesu se zapomíná na starší a zkušené pracovníky, kteří by právě zde měli hrát klíčovou roli. Denně mluvím s lidmi povýšenými do manažerské pozice, kteří si v ní neví rady a potřebují právě mentora. Za účelem předávání moudrosti a zkušeností měly naše kmeny a rodiny po tisíce let své stařešiny, vládci a princové svého učitele či rádce, který je zasvětil do tajů života a světa. Dokonce i mladý dalajlama měl svého mentora, který mu přiblížil západní svět, jeho myšlení a učení, což také z dalajlamy udělalo jednoho ze světových lídrů dneška.
Many developers or maintainers do not care about what and why are they doing. They say they just do their job. But how can they make decisions, how can they design the solution if they do not now the vision, the why behind?
This presentation from Agilia Budapest conference deals with the importance of knowing the vision, needs, understanding it and shows how it forms the teams, daily cooperation, daily decisions and closes the loop again back by updating the vision.
We think we are rational people driven by our mind and logical thinking. But we do many daily irrational decisions, play our emotional dramas, suppress our dark side... How it really stands? What does science say about our rational behavior, emotions and decision making?
Lidé (dokonce i IT pracovníci) chtějí být šťastní a přinášet hodnotu, ale dnešní chování organizací, úspěšnost IT projektů, stejně jako nízká spokojenost zákazníků a týmů tomu neodpovídá. V přednášce se podíváme na příčiny tohoto stavu z neobvykle lidského, ale také manažerského a organizačního pohledu a ukážeme si možnosti, jak tuto situaci změnit s použitím konkrétních Agilních a Lean praktik.
Is it more money what really improves our motivation? Does higher salary make me more happy? If not, what then...? This presentation summarizes in a popular way the state of art of motivation and happiness research.
Agile and Lean support and maintenance of IT Services and Information systemsJaroslav Procházka
This presentation deals with agile and lean support and maintenance of IT services. Agile pproaches are considered as software development approaches mostly, but the usage of agile principles and techniques also brings a lot of benefits to the support and maintenance. Common support and maintenance standards, recommendations and methods are process oriented and omit human aspect that leads to low innovativeness and lack of proactive approach. Another current challenge perceived by companies and researchers is connection between IT and business, namely how IT contributes to business. This presentation takes a critical viewpoint of current approaches supported by facts and evidence. To solve mentioned issues, we define agile and lean support and maintenance principles and control framework for improvement and implementation of these principles in IT services. This framework respects human nature with cognitive science, motivation and typology research as solid basis. The described approach was piloted in 13 IT services. Achievements are enclosed as verification of practical results and benefits.
Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.
Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.
