Beyond the Scrum Master - Becoming an Agile CoachCprime
For an organization to truly move to agility they must develop more than the traditional Scrum roles of ScrumMaster, Product Owner and Scrum team. They must create internal agile coaches. These agile advocates guide other ScrumMasters and Product Owners, assist teams with problems implementing Scrum and help the organization adopt the agile mindset.
How do you move from the ScrumMaster role to that of an agile coach? In this session, we’ll identify the characteristics of a good agile coach, how the role differs from the ScrumMaster and how to build an internal agile coaching organization. We’ll learn:
• Who makes a good agile coach
• How a typical internal agile coach spends their time
• How to assess problems in an unfamiliar team
• Metrics and tools to help the agile coach
• Getting teams started in Agile
• Continuing your own learning
This session is crucial for anyone who has a desire to help agile practices grow and thrive in the organization.
Technical publication groups are sometimes perceived as the lowest rung in the organizational structure. Documentation is the necessary evil; that thick, dusty, verbose, boring collection of technical content, that seems to be more focused on following traditional standards of content creation, rather than serving its main purpose. It's this myopic focus on traditional roles, deliverables, and standards that have pushed the Tech Pub group to the bottom of the corporate food chain. However, this self imposed exile can be reversed, and the relevancy of your organization and role can be increased exponentially by making a few behavioral changes and by growing "tentacles."
Team-level agile is well established - at least in theory! Things that really should be commodity stuff by now - such as clear understanding and articulation of the essentials - shouldn’t vary massively from team to team. However, in practice, arguments rage between software development “experts” and teams on which process framework is best – e.g. Extreme Programming (XP) versus Scrum versus Kanban. Even though agile principles are clear that “no one should tell the team how to do their work”, in practice they are often told “Do Scrum” or “No, don’t do Scrum, do Kanban!”. The Agile Essentials eliminates these damaging and distracting conflicts by extracting the useful practice guidance from XP, Scrum, Kanban and other popular agile approaches, and presents it as a useful and usable set of practice cards that development teams can freely select, combine and adapt to help them work effectively as a team.

Agile HR: Transforming a Human Resources Team Using ScrumSeedbox
At Seedbox Technologies, we use agile development and scrum in all our engineering teams and have the vision of becoming a fully agile company one day. To support this vision, some of our non-engineering teams are starting to adopt and adapt agile principles that will help them deliver more value for our customers, partners, and team members. Here is a kickoff presentation we created to start this transformation with one of our HR teams, responsible for driving our company culture projects. We hope this can inspire other technology (and non-tech) companies to make a similar change in their organizations.
Why Transformations Get Stuck - Global Scrum Gathering 2019 Agile Velocity
In this world of exponentially increasing market disruption, it is more imperative than ever for organizations to not only achieve operational agility (efficiency, speed, etc.), but also organizational agility (speed to respond to market change). Many companies are embarking on an Agile Transformation, but getting “lost in the desert” and not realizing the full agile benefits promised and needed. Traditional leadership paradigms, organizational structures, and culture all get in the way, as too many companies focus on team level change and framework implementation (Scrum and SAFe).
At Global Scrum Gathering 2019, David Hawks showed leaders how they can guide their organizations past these barriers and accelerate the momentum towards true organizational agility.

Workplay: Agile development as a game, and how to make it more soMatthew Philip
Talk given at the 2011 Lean Agile Scrum Conference, Zurich, Switzerland
September 14, 2011
Abstract:
Jane McGonigal provoked an interesting discussion with her book "Reality Is Broken:. Why Games Make Us Better and How They Can Change the World" Agile teams experience many of the aspects of the gameplay benefits that McGonigal talks about: flow (from feedback) autotelic reward and happiness from working with others. This session explores the ways in Which agile development delivers to the four intrinsic rewards its Practitioners - satisfying work, experience of being successful, social connection and meaning - and looks into ways in Which We can design our work to further bridge the divide between games and reality.

Three years of self-selection reteaming at Redgate SoftwareChris Smith
For the past three years Redgate has run a self-selection reteaming process to shape how teams are assigned to reflect the company’s strategy for the year ahead.
Our approach allows people to strongly influence which team they’re part of, encouraging them to move towards the work they find most engaging.
We’ve found reteaming in this way to be good for our people, our teams and our products.
Be inspired to try a self-selection process that works for you, building on the take-aways below:
* The principles of self-determination and the value of providing staff with autonomy, master & purpose
* What holds us back from self-selection both as leaders and participants
* What happened when Redgate Software ran their self-selection process (Spoiler: Good things)
* How to plan and run a considerate self-selection process - physically and remotely

Measuring team performance at spotify slideshareDanielle Jabin
How do we actually know if our teams are doing well? Is gut instinct enough? Furthermore, in a rapidly growing organization such as Spotify, how can we ensure some sort of consistency in our baseline level of Agile knowledge across the technology, product, and design organization?
In this presentation, I’ve shared techniques we have developed and use at Spotify to benchmark health and performance for our teams and some tactics we use to bring them closer to—and beyond!—being the best teams they can be.

The Team Assessment is a key part of the Team Coaching Framework used by agile42 to coach Agile teams. This workshop has been presented by Niels Verdonk and Konrad Pogorzala at agile42 Connect in Berlin, November 2015.
Team Member to Mgr: “Now I’m in a self-organized team, what do you do exactly?” Mgr: “Um, good question. Come to the talk and find out.”
Learning Objectives:
* Be able to answer the question “What do you do as a manager of an Agile team?”
* Understand the difference between line management, functional management and program management.
* Learn how to influence behavior through visible progress and expectations management rather than telling teams what to do.
* Discover why a focus on flow and value delivery is critical to Agile leadership.
* Bring Dilbert cartoons into your management style without everyone calling you “the pointy haired boss.”
Companies of all sizes need to grow their own agile way of working, becoming more agile is a journey, not a destination, it is not about implementing a model or another…
It feels like someone presented scaling as the ultimate solution to solve every problem… and now everybody wants to buy it, it really feels like an old story. Way to often the focus about scaling agile lands on the delivery of projects, and explicitly on the operational model behind that. Every true Agilist would know that agility is about continuous improvement and excellence as much as it is about delivery of value. The real challenge lays in how to make an organization learn continuous improvement and embed it into its own culture.
What the presentation is not about:
- Explaining why self-organized teams
- Explaining what a self-organized team is
- Explaining what a team is
- Explaining the boundaries and conditions to make self-organization to happen
What the presentation is about:
- Show an structured way of supporting self-organization throw my personal experience.
For a long time, organizations were seen more as machines in which processes are repeatable and, once set in motion, remain always the same. At agile42 we instead compare a company to an organism which grows, changes, and becomes resilient against external influences.
An organisation’s Agile transformation changes the organizational culture itself. This requires embracing a different set of values and principles, and so establishing a mindset strongly focused on collaboration and delivering customer value.
ORGANIC Agility recognises all organisational dimensions and contexts in order to create alignment between culture and business. The goal is to reduce process overhead as much as possible and create an environment of continuous improvement.
Lasse Ziegler. Coaching conversation and powerful questionsAgile Lietuva
Coaching a person is not just about having a small talk conversation on a topic, advising or telling them what to do. What is your approach to the conversation and how are you guiding it to help the person you are coaching? I this workshop I will give a brief overview how a coaching conversation is structured into different levels and phases. In addition I will introduce a good technique on how to formulate powerful questions to help guiding a coaching conversation.
Adopting Scrum: an enterprise transformation (Andrea Tomasini, agile42)Andrea Tomasini
Using Scrum as a Pattern Language for Enterprise Transformation
How Scrum Patterns can be used also to introduce Scrum itself into a company. After many years of experience and many attempts to systematically make Scrum introduction into medium and large Enterprises, agile42 shares with you tools and methods used in some of the most successful agile transition.
Stop scaling... Start growing an Agile Organization!Andrea Tomasini
Strategic advantage lies in being yourself and doing the right things the right way. Those who copy what their competitors are doing, place themselves behind the pack — a sure way of losing. This is why “scaling” agility is misleading at best, and disastrous at worst. When you take an existing model and fit your organization to that, you lose much of what makes you unique and different.
Companies small and large must instead learn to grow their own agility for their own advantage. This sounds simple — and it is, when you know what to look for.
In this keynote, Andrea Tomasini presents guidelines and heuristics for growing an agile organization. You will understand why the first step in any transition must be learning how to change. Small inexpensive experiments and empirical metrics will lead you towards your strategic goal, iteratively and incrementally.
The agile transition never ends — but you know it’s working when transitioning becomes a way of life. This not only lets you adapt to new market conditions: it also allows you to create change in the market, on your own terms.
The complexity of scaling agile in a large organization
Fundamental principles on “growing”
Concrete examples (Siemens, Ericsson…) from companies of all sizes (60-6000 employees)
The principles are simple, but they must apply to the organization, not the product or the system architecture.
The heartbeat of a growing organization.
In a world where the there is no perfect visualisation, WiP limit, policy or measures? A good choice depends on the context. There aren't only one answer, but in my experience good questions could help to guide to your answer.
Keynote stop scaling... start growing an agile organization!Andrea Tomasini
Companies of all sizes need to grow their own agile way of working, becoming more agile is a journey, not a destination. Unfortunately, though, most of the time agile success is left in the hands of unlikely heroes, people who are passionate about agile, but likely lack the type of power and decision making required to move to the next level. Because becoming agile requires a radical mind-shift, it takes time, and time is what most organizations seem unwilling to invest. This is where our unlikely heroes come into play, pulling the “Agile Initiative” forward with their passion. Even more unfortunately, despite the great efforts of these individuals, the organization is not willing to wait, and instead, falls into the “implement that model” in a couple of months mindset. Does this work? Well, if it does, we still need to hear that it was fast and painless… On the other hand, more and more organizations are beginning to understand that becoming more agile is an individual journey, and has to be tightly coupled with the company business goals and culture, it can’t be standardized, or the company will likely lose their business advantage and uniqueness. In this keynote I am going to share stories about some of these companies, that having tried unsuccessfully to find more heroes, understood that becoming agile is a cultural shift that needs to be supported by the whole organization, and agreed to follow a growing approach rather than an implementing approach. Principles and tools which helped these organizations to grow their agility as well as stories of their journey will be shared as an example of how change can happen without heroic actions or old style “Change Initiatives”.
