Agile camp2017 experimentation
The document discusses the value of experimentation and learning. It notes that experimentation is the process of trying new ideas, methods, or activities and measuring the results. Additionally, the document presents statistics showing that time spent learning decreases dramatically with age, from 30% of the day for ages 15-19 down to less than 1% of the day for ages 35-44. The document encourages experimentation and emphasizes that both success and failure lead to learning.
Agile camp2017 high performing teams
The document discusses what makes teams high performing and provides an activity for individuals and groups. For the individual activity, participants use the High Performance Model to identify which behaviors their team has resolved and which are still unresolved. In the group activity, participants discuss as a table what is resolved and unresolved for their respective teams, and if any behaviors are unresolved, they gather ideas from others on how to fully resolve it. They also create a list of activities to take back to their own teams.
Agile camp2017 motivation through autonomy
The document discusses different theories of motivation, including Motivation 1.0 focused on survival, Motivation 2.0 involving carrots and sticks approaches from traditional management, and introducing Motivation 3.0 focused on autonomy, mastery, and purpose. It questions what teams may accomplish when given autonomy over their work and cites the book "Drive: The Surprising Truth About What Motivates Us" by Daniel Pink which explores modern theories of motivation.
Agile camp2017 feedback
The document discusses feedback and defines two types of feedback: performance feedback which is provided by a manager, and impact feedback which focuses on how a person's behavior impacts others. It notes that giving feedback can help reduce employee turnover by 14.9% and that 82% of employees appreciate receiving feedback. An example is also given of how to structure impact feedback by focusing on observable behaviors, their impact, and asking open-ended questions.
Agile camp2017 extreme-ownership
The document discusses the concept of "extreme ownership" where individuals take accountability for outcomes even when working with others. It contrasts owners who embrace responsibility with renters who place blame. Adopting extreme ownership at all levels of a team leads to improved performance as the team will own obligations, take action, and deliver results rather than make excuses. The document recommends the book "Extreme Ownership: How U.S. Navy SEALs Lead and Win" by Jocko Willink and Leif Babin to learn more about developing extreme ownership.
Agile camp2017 leader-leader
The document discusses an AgileCamp that took place in September 2017. It mentions conducting a root cause analysis for recurring ticket issues and intends to fix the underlying issues to prevent future tickets. It also lists a book titled "Turn the Ship Around" by L. David Marquet, which is about turning followers into leaders.
Agile camp2017 powerful questions
This document provides instructions for group activities at an AgileCamp in September 2017. Participants are split into pairs and asked to take turns telling stories and listening. They then brainstorm powerful questions on paper. Next, groups of three are formed with roles of problem holder, questioner, and observer. The problem holder shares an issue while the questioner asks prepared powerful questions and the observer watches the interaction.
AgileAfrica2017 - Retrospective
The document outlines the steps for running an effective retrospective meeting based on a workshop presented by Jay-Allen Morris and Sam Laing. It discusses the five stages of a retrospective: open, gather data, generate insights, action, and close. Participants are guided through experiential activities at each stage, including brainstorming energizing and frustrating aspects, creating insight posters from Lego builds, and identifying takeaway actions. The goal is for teams to learn what makes a good retrospective and identify concrete improvements.

Agile UX with Lego
Are you struggling to integrate User Experience techniques with your agile teams? Are any of these patterns familiar?
The UX team works one sprint ahead of the development team.
UX designers spend lots of energy on high fidelity mock-ups which the developers then ignore.
You produce working software each sprint, but recruiting users is time consuming so you only test with users before you release.
There is no time to incorporate changes from user feedback into the sprints before release.
The UX designers and the developers seem to speak a different language.
Developers get annoyed because the UX design work great on iOS, but clashes with Android standards.
If so join us for a fun interactive session where we use Lego to explore how you can overcome challenges like this in your own environment. You’ll work as a team doing both UX design, and development (with Lego), and see how and why these patterns happen, as well as what you can do about them.
This workshop is ideal for people from both the UX world, struggling to understand how to work with developers, and for developers struggling to understand what UX designers are trying to achieve.
Distributed Teams - Hello? Can anyone hear me?
In the ideal perfect world there will be rainbows and unicorns and teams that all sit together. In reality, most teams have to deal with distribution in one form or another. For some: it’s team members spread across a building, for others it’s team members in other parts of the world in different time zones.
Have you even been on a call where you can hear someone ordering coffee, or a dog barking? My favorite is being told someone is joining the call, after you've spent 5 minutes explaining something in detail. Mostly distributed meetings are boring, and not really worth the time and effort.
As agile coaches we truly value face to face communication and visible boards and sticky-notes, we also value working from anywhere, having pets in the office and not having to travel. So what is possible here? We decided to fully immerse ourselves into the distributed world and see what happened. We were amazed - we managed to build trust, explore and discover great collaborative tools and we improved communication.
We would like to share some of our discoveries and tips with you. Join us to explore how agile can work for distributed teams.
Getting Lean: Product + UX
This document discusses lean product development and user experience (UX) principles. It emphasizes building minimum viable products (MVPs) through short development cycles of validating assumptions with customers, measuring outcomes, and iterating based on learnings. Specific lean practices highlighted include validating problems before building solutions, collaborative cross-functional teams, designing MVPs, continuous deployment, focusing on outcomes over outputs, and avoiding vanity metrics.

Is It Time for Scrum to Scram? Alternative Agile Marketing Methodologies
The document discusses alternatives to Scrum for agile methodologies, including Kanban and Scrumban. It describes some issues with implementing Scrum in certain contexts and then outlines the key components of Kanban, including visualized workflows with work-in-progress limits, explicit policies, work item types, independent cadences, and continuous improvement. It proposes a simplified 4-part kickstart approach combining Kanban principles with Scrum practices like daily standups and retrospectives to provide an alternative agile framework.
Quest 2017 Agile Workshop: Getting your agile team unstuck
Whether you’ve been working in an agile team for 6 months, or 6 years, the same obstacles tend to arise and trip us up over and over. Maybe your retrospectives feel more like a funeral and no one is participating anymore or your daily stand-ups have bloated into 25 team member status meetings. Perhaps your QA team is falling farther and farther behind the agile developers and feel like they’ll never catch up with their testing backlog. These issues lower team morale, lead to abandoned agile transformation initiatives, and ultimately your product and customers suffer. But there’s a better way! Stop the bleeding, mature your process, and grow into a high functioning agile machine. Join Angela, to learn from her mistakes, what worked and what failed and get your team “unstuck”. Learn some techniques and games to reinvigorate your agile teams! This tutorial is for individuals with some agile experience and will focus on the real issues that participants are struggling with today.
Agile mindset
"You Don't Do Agile, You Be Agile" - If you've been in Agile field for a while, you would have already heard advice to Be Agile. Agile is not a process but values and principles. Agile is a mindset. More than your processes, your behavior indicates your mindset as in, how do you handle failures, whether you focus on learning and growth, how do you handle complexity, and whether you focus to eliminate or embrace uncertainty. Kamlesh Ravlani helps us dissect the mindset, what's an Agile mindset and it's key attributes. He shares Carol Dweck's research on Growth Mindset - published in her book Mindset. Kamlesh discusses strategies and exercises to develop an Agile mindset.
Agile Scaling - 3 Factors For Success
Video and slides available at https://www.kaizenko.com/washington-dc-scrum-user-group-dcsug/
Have you ever thought to yourself...
• How can we make Agile Scaling less of a goal itself and more of a method to get our organizational goals?
• We know we need to scale but where do we go from here?
I'll share the three factors that emerged as common themes throughout my experience working on government Agile Scaling projects that ultimately impacted the trajectory of each agency's Scaling journey:
• Communicate vision consistently
• Focus on your people genuinely
• Create your own path intentionally
Regardless of the agency acronym or the frameworks used, these concepts shaped their Scaling outcomes.
So, whether you are working in the government, commercial or the non-profit space, these concepts can help you take your organization to the peak of its Agile Scaling journey.
Working from the bottom of the backlog - 1% day
This talk was given at Last Conference, Melbourne on 30/06/2016.
All teams usually work on the top items of their backlog but we decided to dedicate one day to work from the bottom of the backlog, and that day was a 1% day.
Usually, the backlog of every product team comprises of cards that can qualify as “quick wins”, yet they do not see light of the day. This mainly happens because team and product owners want to work on things that provided maximum customer value. However, it is important to remember that some of these small improvements can actually delight your customers hence making a big difference.
This talk was our experience report of how we ran this experiment at a product team by putting the entire team on fixing these long impending quick wins. Criteria of selection was simple – anything that could move from “to do” to “done” in a day. It did require some prep work in order to execute the experiment successfully. But the result was fantastic, we managed to move a sizeable amount of cards to the “done” state, the team as a whole feels motivated and we are now looking forward to more such collaboration opportunities ahead of us.
Hacking Management - Best Practices and Tools
The document contains tweets from @danberger during a May 2014 presentation on best practices and tools for starting, scaling, and sustaining a business. Some of the tips discussed include crowdsourcing core values and mission from teammates early on; using Objectives and Key Results to set goals; conducting regular surveys and meetings to measure performance; focusing on leadership over management; and making meetings add value with objectives, agendas, minutes and next steps. The presentation also provides advice on effective communication, motivation, feedback, and eliminating weaknesses to become an extraordinary leader.
Goals driven delivery with impact mapping pmi-march2019
This document introduces Impact Mapping, which is a structured visualization technique to map out goals, impacted actors, desired impacts, and necessary deliverables. It explains that Impact Maps answer the questions of "why, who, how and what". Examples of Impact Maps are provided on increasing university talk attendance. The document recommends introducing Impact Mapping to teams by conducting a lunch and learn session to brainstorm its application or using it to connect goals to a current project.

Three Star Product Experiences
The document discusses lessons from three-star restaurants on providing excellent user experiences. It notes that the core product must be great and unique in order to succeed. Restaurants like El Bulli spent time researching and experimenting to develop innovative dishes. Providing exceptional service is also key - the delivery of the food experience shapes how the customer feels. World-class restaurants anticipate customer needs, empower their staff to be creative, and work as a team to consistently deliver high-quality experiences.
Taming the Chaos: Beyond the Quick Wins
Your team started using Kanban boards and visualizing your work a while back and, though everyone is happy about the increased visibility, your team is nowhere near the utopia other teams say they’ve achieved. Even worse, you don’t know why or how to get there!
Many teams hit this same plateau and stop, falling tragically short of the value that can be achieved with deeper Kanban implementations. This presentation shares tangible steps to take to help transform shallow kanban implementations into systems focused on flow and continuous improvement.

Multipack
In 11 steps, the document outlines a process for rapidly developing and launching an online web app product within 1 week using lean development principles. It discusses identifying a problem to solve, building a minimum viable product, using agile and scrum methodologies, launching early, incorporating testing and continuous integration, engaging early adopters for feedback, being prepared to pivot based on feedback, planning for future iterations, considering revenue strategies, and drawing inspiration from quick wins.
A Startup Journey: Transitioning from Ad-hoc to Agile to Kanban
This document summarizes the evolution of a startup's processes from ad-hoc to agile and then to kanban. It describes how the startup initially used extreme programming and scrum under an agile approach, which helped deliver software incrementally. It then discusses moving to kanban to decouple releases and get rid of iterations. The document concludes that combining agile and kanban practices, such as limiting work-in-progress and pull policies, along with emphasizing flow and prioritization, helped the startup better manage risk and consider the full picture.
Leveling Up Your Junior Developers
Our industry is brimming with new talent, but the difference between a good and bad mentor is monumental for a new developer's career. While every developer has the opportunity to impact their team in this way, many pass on the change because they find it to be boring, tedious, or they don't think they have enough to offer. We will cover not only why you should take a role in helping grow your team's talent, but also proven strategies to do so successfully.
Design Thinking & Lean Product Development •How to Identify a Real Problem Th...
The document discusses using design thinking and lean product development methods to identify real problems worth solving. It explains using the "Five Whys" technique to drill down through a perceived problem to its root cause by repeatedly asking "Why?" about the problem. Through this process of asking "Why?" five times about the perceived problem of having too much stress, the real problem is identified as needing to become more self-aware in order to calm one's mind and reduce stress.
How To Grow Your Testing Team Members
Leading a testing team of individual people with different skills and mindsets is a challenging task. Modern leaders should support, help, guide, and coach the direct reports to grow their skill set to become a better tester. In this talk, Daniel will introduce the testing wheel to you and what it's all about.
The content of the testing wheel will help leaders to shape their testing team and to support, help, guide, and coach each person in the team on an individual level.
The testing wheel is an instrument to bring potential problems or missing skills to the top and is a basis for discussion. It will further help the direct report to grow their own skills set. On the other side it will help the leader to guide and coach the team member.

Effective meetings
A meeting is a gathering of two or more people with a common goal to take action and achieve it. An effective meeting has clear goals, focuses on actions, and aims for concrete outcomes. There are different types of meetings like team and personal meetings. Team meetings have three stages - before, during, and after the meeting. The most important preparation is the agenda, which includes objectives, topics, descriptions and goals for each topic, and allotted time. During the meeting, the leader should model good attitudes, follow the agenda, and be focused. After the meeting, the leader should send outputs, include priorities and follow ups, and track progress on assigned actions.

Goodbye, Focus Groups. Hello, Friendship Groups! New Techniques for Design Re...
The document discusses new techniques for design research, including quick hits which are 10-minute phone interviews conducted at different times, friendship groups which are focus groups made up of 3-4 people who already know each other, immersion journeys where clients participate in field research, social graphs where participants define their various roles, and de/re-construct where participants describe words taken for granted. It also discusses using brands as metaphors to inspire new perspectives and emphasizes the importance of always questioning the status quo with "what if" scenarios. The overall message is that traditional focus groups and interviews can be reimagined to make research more engaging, active and fun for participants.

Power of the Swarm - Agile Serbia Conference 2017
This document discusses practices for solving complex problems in an agile team environment through swarming or collective intelligence. It defines complex problems as those with no single solution due to competing factors, and explains that the best solutions emerge through interactions between people with diverse viewpoints. Effective swarming practices discussed include having the product owner and team collaboratively develop a shared vision and user stories, with the full team designing and testing stories together. The document recommends practices like mob programming and pairing to encourage collaboration over individual work and ensure all team members contribute to problem solving.
Intro to design sprint
The 5-day Design Sprint process provides teams a structured approach to answering critical business questions. In the first day, teams map out the challenge by defining a long-term goal and target audience. On the second day, teams sketch rapid ideas and variations. The third day has teams vote on the best ideas to prototype. A prototype is created on the fourth day for user testing on the fifth day. This process gives teams a fast way to learn from users without fully building and launching a product.
Transform your museum with Agile
Museums and the Web 2016 in Los Angeles.
Workshop by Gavin Mallory and Andy Cummins of Cogapp.
Part 1: Agile for Beginners and Thrillseekers (paper plane exercise)
Part 2: Pleasures and Pains of Agile (an overview of Agile process and roles, with lessons we have learnt about running Agile projects)
Agile is transformational for digital projects in museums.
Working in an Agile way emphasizes inclusivity and digital responsiveness. It helps to deliver on this year’s conference theme by helping museum professionals realise projects that will create, facilitate, deliver or participate in culture, science and heritage through networked technologies – wherever the network may reach.
In this half-day workshop we will introduce participants to Agile, specifically SCRUM, and the benefits it provides in terms of delivering projects that meet user and stakeholder needs.
Participants can expect to learn the basics of Agile and be armed with the knowledge to make a meaningful change in their respective organizations.
In the session we will run through some practical exercises to demonstrate how Agile works. These hands-on sessions will illustrate the high level principles and benefits of Agile. After the practical session we’ll look at the intricacies of the process in more detail.
There are no pre-requisites to the workshop and we will provide materials for participants to use during the workshop. These materials will also be a reference for when participants want to start implementing Agile in their own projects.
This session is aimed at Agile beginners from any discipline, it would benefit project managers, digital developers and program managers among others.
The Business Analyst: How To Be More Than a Proxy
The document discusses ways for business analysts to help their teams beyond just acting as a proxy. It describes an exercise where the BA verbally communicated requirements to developers without showing the handout, first without feedback then with feedback. The BA can help teams with collaboration, feedback, facilitation, documentation, and visualizing work, while some needs like access and equipment are not under the BA's control. Story mapping is presented as a way for BAs to break down user tasks into smaller user stories.

That conference 2017 - Getting your Agile Team Unstuck
Whether you've been working on an agile team for 6 months, or 6 years, the same obstacles tend to arise to trip us up over and over. Maybe your retrospectives feel more like a funeral and no one is participating anymore, your daily stand-ups have bloated into 25 team member status meetings, or your QA team is falling farther and farther behind the agile developers and feel like they’ll never catch up with their testing backlog. These are the kinds of issues I see all of the time. They lower team morale, lead to abandoned transformation initiatives, and ultimately your product and customers suffer because of it. But there’s a better way!
As an agile coach and consultant, I have worked with dozens of teams to stop the bleeding, strengthen their relationships, mature their processes, and help them grow into high functioning agile machines. And to be clear, I’ve made mistakes as well! I’d like to share with the audience my own experiences and lessons-learned, including both what succeeded and what failed in hopes to lead you down the path to getting your own team “unstuck”.
22 s4 i brainstorming final
Brainstorming is a technique used to generate creative ideas and solutions to a problem in a group setting. It aims to produce a list of potential solutions through discussion without filtering ideas. The benefits are that it pools the experience and creativity of a team to provoke new ideas. Brainstorming works best with groups of 5-10 people and takes 15-20 minutes. It involves writing down individual ideas on post-it notes which are then placed on a board and discussed to generate further ideas.

Agile Camp 2018 - Become a Better Leader with Legos
This document describes a Lego game exercise used to demonstrate the Cynefin framework. The exercise involves participants completing a series of Lego building challenges of increasing complexity that correspond to the different domains in the Cynefin framework - obvious, complicated, complex, and chaotic. For each challenge, participants are asked questions about their experience that help illustrate characteristics of the corresponding Cynefin domain. The goal is to show how problems can be classified based on their attributes and how different approaches are needed to manage different types of problems.
Agile Camp 2018 - Championship Mindset
Workplace distractions are common and can negatively impact productivity. Some common distractions include social media, emails, and unnecessary meetings. It is important to set boundaries, focus on one task at a time, and take occasional breaks to refocus and recharge in order to maximize productivity and minimize distractions.
Agile Camp 2018 - Built for Failure
The document discusses how to create an environment for innovation within teams. It states that in order to improve, teams must be able to change and have the space to innovate, which sometimes means trying things that appear ignorant or incompetent. This encourages experimentation by reducing the cost of failure. The document advocates building tools and processes that help teams get the right work done at the right time, prioritizing work, limiting interruptions, and providing direction with purpose.
Agile Camp 2018 - Top ten barriers to achieving an agile culture cl
The document discusses cultural challenges that companies face when adopting agile practices. It cites a survey that found the top reasons for failed agile projects were lack of experience with agile methods, a company culture at odds with agile values, and lack of management support. It describes how company culture is shaped by values, habits, and generational factors of employees. Specifically, it notes that IT culture focuses on repeatable processes, unambiguous solutions, and certainty of results, which can clash with agile values like flexibility and collaboration. The document frames ten core agile principles as challenges to overcome cultural barriers, such as embracing transparency, minimum viable products, and servant leadership.
Agile Camp 2018 - Brain on stress
The document discusses the causes and effects of stress on the brain and body. It provides techniques for managing stress, including square breathing and progressive muscle relaxation exercises. It also suggests activities teams can do during short breaks to reduce tension, such as meditation walks, and lists resources for further information on stress and reading body language.
Agile Camp 2018 - The Pitfalls of the Unspoken
The document discusses plans for an AgileCamp event. It announces that a third location is being added in Madison, WI. Attendees will be able to provide feedback on sessions through surveys to help improve future events. Speakers will be invited from outside the hosting organization's IT department.
Agile Camp 2018 - Experience Personal Kanban
The document summarizes highlights from a six-week course on personal Kanban. The course covered two chapters per session over six sessions. Participants actively practiced Kanban by visualizing their work and limiting work-in-progress using Kanban boards. An exercise was described where participants estimated properties of marbles in cups to learn about defining work in smaller chunks to improve flexibility and efficiency. Overall, the course helped participants focus on value, eliminate waste, and make better decisions using Kanban principles.
Agile Camp 2018 - Letting No Work For You
This document discusses the challenges of saying "yes" when we don't want to for fear of disappointing others. It notes that constantly agreeing can increase stress, anxiety, and physical health issues. Alternative responses are suggested such as acknowledging concerns but proposing a better option. Effective communication techniques are also outlined like using others' language, explaining terms, asking questions, restating to confirm understanding, and avoiding extreme questioning. Partners are asked to roleplay times when saying "no" could have improved a situation.
Agile Camp 2018 - Unplanned Work
The document discusses how interruptions can significantly reduce productivity. It notes that a single interruption of just 10 minutes can lead to over 30 minutes of lost time getting back to a complex task. It also shares that in the first 76 minutes of work, only 11 minutes were spent on the actual task due to interruptions. The document advocates limiting work in progress to reduce wait times, making all work visible even if it's ad hoc requests, and measuring and trending data to understand productivity impacts.
Agile camp 2018 - Team Metrics
This document discusses the importance of team metrics for identifying problems, making forecasts, and driving corrective behaviors. It emphasizes that both qualitative and quantitative data from sources like Jira and Excel can provide leading and lagging metrics to understand team performance. Examples are given around tracking items delivered and forecasting readiness. The goals are to help teams gain intuition on these concepts and find new ways to sell analytics using analogies.
Agile Camp 2018 - Question Storming
The document discusses using questioning to improve project planning and outcomes. It recommends generating questions before developing solutions to surface issues and ensure the right problems are addressed. Poor planning is cited as a leading cause of project failure. Questioning at the start allows all voices to be heard and contingency plans to be developed. The technique involves clarifying objectives and assumptions before brainstorming open-ended questions without immediate answers. This approach helps focus a group on the most important questions to guide the project in a collaborative manner.
Agile Camp 2018 - Up Your Game
This document describes several icebreaker games that were played at an Agile camp. It provides instructions for games like #onetimeatAgileCamp where participants pass colored balls around in a circle while saying another participant's name. It also describes a game where participants come up with creative names and drawings for "team monsters" that represent problems, and brainstorm ways to defeat the monsters. Finally, it suggests an activity where participants collaborate to tell a story by each adding just one word at a time.
Agile camp who are you to judge final
The document discusses developing a learner mindset over a judger mindset. It provides tools and questions to help observe situations objectively, understand different perspectives, and make decisions focused on learning and positivity. Specific tools mentioned include using questions to empower observation skills, distinguishing learner and judger questions, making friends with one's inner judger, and questioning assumptions. The overall message is that reframing one's thinking through questions can help navigate challenges and find new possibilities.
Agile camp2017 change
This document lists books and authors about change and how to successfully implement change when it is difficult. It includes the titles "Switch: How to Change When Change is Hard" by Dan Heath and Chip Heath and "Influencer: The New Science of Leading Change" by Joseph Grenny and Kerry Patterson. The document also notes it was created in September 2017 and includes a hashtag for AgileCamp.
Agile camp2017 empowerment
Empowerment refers to measures that increase autonomy and self-determination for individuals and communities, allowing them to represent their own interests responsibly and independently. It is the antithesis of controlling power over others. The goal is to enable self-determined decision making.
Metrics
The document contains charts showing metrics over time such as commitment burnup, predictability burndown, completed capacity, velocity, rework, throughput, and cycle time. It also shows charts comparing ideal and actual remaining work in hours and story points over the same time period. The text emphasizes that data needs to be understood, visible, and used as the starting point for conversations around improvement.
Facilitation
The document discusses facilitation and describes it as a fluid process using various tools and techniques to empower participants, invite collaboration, and increase commitment to group solutions in order to maximize productivity. An effective facilitator guides a group to their own solutions by listening 80% of the time, building bridges, engaging all styles and ideas, and acting as a "ringmaster". In contrast, an ineffective facilitator is rigid, forces answers, talks too much, and only engages those who are similar.
Trust grid workshop
The document discusses how mutual respect and trust are essential for self-organizing teams to evolve into high-performance teams. It outlines an exercise for teams to identify existing "trust anti-patterns", determine if they are bearable or hurt the team, and propose "trust boost-patterns" to counteract the anti-patterns. The document concludes with an activity where team members and managers make commitments to build trust.
Stakeholder
This document outlines various stakeholders for a project including direct and indirect users, managers, senior management, operations staff, funders, support members, auditors, program managers, and other developers. It discusses that stakeholders want their work prioritized, have limited time for additional tasks, and prefer effective relationship building through clear communication and availability rather than large upfront requirements, siloed work, or delays in decision making. Stakeholders want everyone involved from the start to build trust and partnership through an iterative process.

Suzanne Lagerweij - Influence Without Power - Why Empathy is Your Best Friend...
This is a workshop about communication and collaboration. We will experience how we can analyze the reasons for resistance to change (exercise 1) and practice how to improve our conversation style and be more in control and effective in the way we communicate (exercise 2).
This session will use Dave Gray’s Empathy Mapping, Argyris’ Ladder of Inference and The Four Rs from Agile Conversations (Squirrel and Fredrick).
Abstract:
Let’s talk about powerful conversations! We all know how to lead a constructive conversation, right? Then why is it so difficult to have those conversations with people at work, especially those in powerful positions that show resistance to change?
Learning to control and direct conversations takes understanding and practice.
We can combine our innate empathy with our analytical skills to gain a deeper understanding of complex situations at work. Join this session to learn how to prepare for difficult conversations and how to improve our agile conversations in order to be more influential without power. We will use Dave Gray’s Empathy Mapping, Argyris’ Ladder of Inference and The Four Rs from Agile Conversations (Squirrel and Fredrick).
In the session you will experience how preparing and reflecting on your conversation can help you be more influential at work. You will learn how to communicate more effectively with the people needed to achieve positive change. You will leave with a self-revised version of a difficult conversation and a practical model to use when you get back to work.
Come learn more on how to become a real influencer!
Carrer goals.pptx and their importance in real life
Career goals serve as a roadmap for individuals, guiding them toward achieving long-term professional aspirations and personal fulfillment. Establishing clear career goals enables professionals to focus their efforts on developing specific skills, gaining relevant experience, and making strategic decisions that align with their desired career trajectory. By setting both short-term and long-term objectives, individuals can systematically track their progress, make necessary adjustments, and stay motivated. Short-term goals often include acquiring new qualifications, mastering particular competencies, or securing a specific role, while long-term goals might encompass reaching executive positions, becoming industry experts, or launching entrepreneurial ventures.
Moreover, having well-defined career goals fosters a sense of purpose and direction, enhancing job satisfaction and overall productivity. It encourages continuous learning and adaptation, as professionals remain attuned to industry trends and evolving job market demands. Career goals also facilitate better time management and resource allocation, as individuals prioritize tasks and opportunities that advance their professional growth. In addition, articulating career goals can aid in networking and mentorship, as it allows individuals to communicate their aspirations clearly to potential mentors, colleagues, and employers, thereby opening doors to valuable guidance and support. Ultimately, career goals are integral to personal and professional development, driving individuals toward sustained success and fulfillment in their chosen fields.

Editor's Notes
- It is an excersize that you can use to Facilitate discussion Focus conversations Visualize ideas Generate takeaways
- Conflict is normal
- Creating a backlog Creating a vision Generating ideas Less than 10 more than 5
- Revisit your tadpole at the end of story mapping to make sure all piles were addressed in some sort of fashion, can be as little as talking to actually being a feature, epic etc. Provide real Nelnet examples (1099c project, ACH project, etc.)
