Remote Working in a SAFe Environment: Collaborative Online Meetings and Fully...Cprime
While both the Agile manifesto and SAFe highlight the benefits of face-to-face communication, it has often been the case that organizations need to work remotely. The reasons for this can be varied – it may be due to very large teams in highly distributed locations, extensive travel time and cost commitments, or even as the result of unplanned travel restrictions, such as those being currently experienced.
This last scenario has led to a fully remote situation, where everyone is working from a separate location, interacting with colleagues through the use of technology.
This can lead to certain challenges, and in this webinar we will share guidance for successfully facilitating a fully distributed PI Planning event and leading collaborative online meetings.
In this Webinar, experts Andrew Sales (Scaled Agile), and Mike Carew (Cprime) will cover the following:
*Guiding the necessary behaviors for remote working with a Lean-Agile mindset
*Techniques for leading collaborative online meetings
*Overcoming pitfalls and success patterns for remote events
*Preparing and facilitating a successful, fully distributed PI Planning
*Recent experiences from Scaled Agile and their first remote PI Planning
Part II: Learn how VersionOne supports SAFe and helps accelerate your adoption of enterprise agile. Andy Powell, Product Evangelist and Scaled Agile Framework Program Consultant, along with Lee Cunningham, Enterprise Agile Coach, will focus predominantly on the Portfolio and Program levels of SAFe.
You'll learn:
- How to design ahead of development without chaos
- How to conduct user research within Agile
- How to deliver consistent UX on tight timelines
A short talk that explains a little of what Agile is; where it originated and how it works. This talk is applicable whatever method you use - scrum, XP, DSDM etc. Concludes by introducing ICAgile (the International Consortium of Agile).
Sprint Reviews that Attract, Engage, and Enlighten StakeholdersTechWell
Are you suffering from chronic disinterest in what your team is delivering? Are your product owners unavailable or distracted? Are your sprint reviews ho-hum experiences with low attendance? If you answered Yes to any of these questions, your agile teams are in trouble-and you need to attend this session. Experienced agile coach Bob Galen explores real-world patterns for how to increase the interest in-and the energy and value of-your sprint reviews. First, Bob explains how to prepare properly, the keys to dry runs, and the role of a Master of Ceremonies. Then he examines ways to orchestrate pro-active reviews that include the whole team and engage your audience when demonstrating "working software." Next Bob discusses how to perform a review follow-up and gather feedback for high-impact improvements. Finally, Bob wraps up by exploring ways to make sprint reviews a centerpiece of your agile adoption and transformation.

Design studio: A team alignment secret weapon - Modev MVP Conference
We all want the best user experience, but often other priorities get in the way: “Bob from Marketing wants it to…”, “The developers don’t like that approach...”, “That feature is a ‘nice to have’”.
What if you had a tool that can help folks sharpen their UX skills, get them prioritizing the users and their goals, and align everyone on a common vision that revolves around a great user experience?
This hands-on tutorial will walk you through a design studio and how it can be a great tool to align product owners, developers and UX teams on an approach that balances user and business needs. We’ll also show you how to conduct a “mini design studio” before an agile sprint.
You’ll gain hands-on experience with different aspects of running a design studio through individual and group exercises throughout the tutorial.

TFS2010: Nuts and Bolts of Visual Studio Scrum v1.0 Template
Visual Studio and Team Foundation Server (TFS) are the cornerstones of development on the Microsoft .NET platform. These tools represent some of the best opportunities for success and to experience a focused and smooth software development process. For TFS 2010 Microsoft heavily invested in Scrum and is moving some internal product teams onto the approach.
This session is not about Scrum in depth, (for that please visit scrum.org) but rather, we will cover the lifecycle of creating work items and how this fits into Scrum using Visual Studio ALM and Team Foundation Server. We will cover in detail:
* How to successfully gather requirements
* How to plan a project using TFS 2010 and Scrum
* How to work with a product backlog in TFS 2010
* The right way to plan a sprint with TFS 2010
* Tracking your progress
* The right way to use work items
* Leveraging built-in reporting and Project portals available on the SharePoint dashboard
* Reports targeted to the Product Owner / Project Manager
You will walk away knowing how to interpret and understand a project health and progress. Visual Studio ALM is designed to address many of the problems faced by teams using traditional approaches. It does
so by providing a set of integrated tools to help teams improve their software development activities and to help management better support the software development processes.

The core of the practice of Agile is the delivery of individual projects; it's where most practitioners start out, and it fundamentally changes the way a project team works together and works with their stakeholders.
Scrum is one of the most popular Agile delivery approaches at the moment. In this APN session, Carolyn uses one of her recent projects as a way to illustrate each facet of Scrum and how it panned out in real life, from start to finish.
