Enterprise Cloud Development and Agile Transformation Strategy - China 2012 Laszlo Szalvay
This is a seminar I gave throughout China the week of Oct 29th 2012. It covers the topics of Agile Software Development (Scrum, Lean, XP) and the new framework of Enterprise Cloud Development that CollabNet has been socializing. Please contact me for similar private talks at your company.
A visible architecture is a physical model of a software system created by architecture teams using Duplo® bricks, with strings representing data flows. Visible architectures enable teams to collaboratively understand the “as-is” architecture and make better choices on the “to-be” architecture. We use Visible Architectures and frameworks like Speed Boat and Prune the Product Tree to help teams succeed. This deck outlines a step-by-step process for how to create a visible architecture.
The agile values and practices we all hold dear give us more than the ability to tackle problems associated with software development. They give us the ability to tackle Awesome Superproblems. These are problems that are bigger than what one person can solve alone and get worse through inaction. They require collaboration and foundation for action, even when the actions cannot be proven correct when they are enacted.
Despite their enormous challenge, when we make progress on solving Awesome Superproblems we find that new patterns that can be applied to solve classes of similar problems.
In this presentation, usually given as a conference keynote, I show the collaborative, social, and serious games that have their roots in the Agile Community have blossomed into multidimensional frameworks that are being used by agilists around the world to solve awesome superproblems. Without any special superpowers except a willingness to try.

Agile New Zealand Keynote: Agile Being vs. Doing AgileLuke Hohmann
This is the slide deck from my Agile New Zealand 2017 keynote.
The Agile Community loves to talk about 'leadership' and how better 'leaders' can bring project success. And most of the popular Agile methods love to frame 'leadership' as the essential ingredient of success. Unfortunately, too many teams spend too much time discussing these topics without fully appreciating their deeper meanings. In this keynote you'll be able to explore what this means for you and your team - and you might find yourself ditching "leader" and "manager" in favor of "agilist".
This deck provides an overview of the Conteneo Weave platform. It explains the core underlying concepts and such things as guest lists, forums, galas and basic operations within the system.
This slide deck provides a detailed overview on how to use the Conteneo Weave Idea Engine to create, facilitate and post-process visual collaboration frameworks like Speed Boat, Cover Story, Prune the Product Tree, Gamestorming frameworks like Empathy Map, Canvases like the Business Model Canvas and even custom frameworks.
This slide deck provides a detailed overview on how to use the Conteneo Weave Decision Engine to collaboratively prioritize product features with customers, project portfolios with internal teams, allocate resources and engage citizens through Participatory Budgeting and Budget Games.
This slide deck provides an overview of several advanced features in Weave, including anonymous play, prioritizing large lists and developing custom frameworks for large teams.

Scrum Alliance Collaboration at Scale Webinar: Agile RoadmappingLuke Hohmann
Our 2016-Sep Collaboration at Scale Webinar focused on Agile Roadmapping. In this deck you'll find motivations and reasons for why a team should roadmap, an exploration of typical roadmap failures, how to fit roadmapping into Scrum, the best known format and structure for Market-Driven Agile Roadmapping from my book "Beyond Software Architecture" and an overview of how to create a roadmap using online and in-person collaboration frameworks.
This presentation presents a simple and direct model for Agile Portfolio Management based on four key concepts:
1. The type of work you're doing.
2. The portfolio governance model.
3. The project governance model (the shape of the project).
4. The size / number of Agile teams.
The deck presents simple, scalable, effective approaches to Agile Portfolio Management that are lighter than most Agile methods and are supported by Conteneo's Collaboration Frameworks. This deck also directly supports Conteneo's Strategy-Glue-Tactics framework for effective Agile Product Management.
CXPA 2016 Keynote: Designing for Collaboration and DeliberationLuke Hohmann
In this 2016 CXPA (www.cxpa.org) keynote, Conteneo founder and CEO Luke Hohmann explores the many factors that distinguish designing for collaboration and deliberation from designing for communication, coordination or other forms of solo tasks. Sadly, SlideShare doesn't enable you to experience the interactive frameworks Luke used to illustrate these points - but you can see these at the end of the presentation.
This is a deck prepared for Every Voice Engaged Foundation Facilitators and Conteneo Certified Collaboration Architects to teach them how to implement the allocation of funds in Participatory Budgeting programs using the Budget Allocator version of the Conteneo Decision Engine.
IIBA Columbus 2015 Keynote by Luke HohmannLuke Hohmann
Here is a copy of the highly interactive keynote I gave at the IIBA Columbus meeting. The keynote was VERY light on slides and VERY HEAVY on collaborative gaming. We played a number of games to illustrate how amazing products and services are created through games like Cover Story, Product Box, Spider Web and Buy A Feature.
In 2010 the Scrum Alliance hired Conteneo (then called "The Innovation Games Company") to produce a series of online games using the Conteneo Ideas to Action framework. We engaged 35 CSTs through Prune the Product Tree. After analyzing the results we identified 14 projects and then used Buy a Feature to engage a larger community in prioritizing these projects. The Scrum Alliance successfully implemented many of these projects, demonstrating that the Scrum Alliance is truly acting in a manner congruent with core Agile values.
Using Product Box to Build the Complete DeveloperLuke Hohmann
In 2006 I was asked to give the keynote at the Better Software Conference on "The Complete Developer". It was a perfect opportunity to use the Innovation Game® Product Box to with senior leaders of Silicon Valley Companies like Google and EMC to identify the three core sets of attributes that they consider most valuable in a developer: technical competence, customer driven and business acumen.
A Pattern Language for Strategic Product RoadmappingLuke Hohmann
Here is the pattern language for developing a market driven product roadmap from my book "Beyond Software Architecture". You can use this format in conjunction with the Innovation Game® Prune the Product Tree to create great Product Roadmaps.

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.
