This presentation discusses challenges with offshore software development teams and provides recommendations. It notes that cultural differences, time zone shifts, and invalid assumptions can create "bricks in the wall" for offshore teams. The presentation advocates treating offshore software developers like children that need guidance, and establishing four stages of team development: 1) Staffing the team, 2) Starting work shorelessly, 3) Speeding up the work through flow, and 4) Scaling the team while respecting individuals. Specific advice includes not outsourcing hiring, hiring people the leader likes, embracing new processes, and investing in communication infrastructure. The overall goal is to help make obvious challenges conscious and provide ideas for successful offshore collaboration.
Scrum kan vara svårt att använda i stor skala. Vi tittar på hur Kanban kan användas för att förstärka Scrum på företagsnivå genom att förbättra Scrum-of-Scrums, hjälpa produktägaren och stödja god beslutsfattandet på program eller avdelningsnivå.

Shift your thinking, alter your process, and create a dynamic of doing rather than spinning. Kelly Goto discusses feeling "stuck" and how to get "unstuck" in order to transcend obstacles and develop a culture of adaptation, progress and flow.
Hold onto your hats: The Scaled Agile Framework might be good for design!Jennifer Fabrizi
Design and the Scaled Agile Framework… Maybe you’ve heard about SAFe. Maybe others have told you it’s a terrible, scary-looking, confusing diagram of how corporations try to “do agile.” Or maybe you’ve experienced the scrum-of-scrums-from-hell where no one knows what’s really going on, what the product you’re all working on is really supposed be, or why you’re even doing it in the first place. So you might be skittish about talking about it altogether!
We’ll use story telling from our internal XD practice, shining a light on what we’ve found that works and what doesn’t. We’ll share our stories about XD allies and stakeholder management nightmares that lead us to key insights.
We’ll also share our hopes, visions, and plans for how we want to activate design thinking throughout our organization by creating meaningful experiences of design in addition to meaningful experiences.

Rapid growth | 10 Challenges and OpportunitiesNick Caldwell
10 Challenges and Opportunities for rapidly growing product / engineering organizations. Topics include roles and responsibilities, reorganization, people, culture, diversity, execution at scale, ambition, and more. By Nick Caldwell, VP of Engineering at Reddit
Scrum and Patterns share a heritage that goes back centuries. The common foundations of the two — local adaptation, incremental growth, focus on "value," and the central human element — make patterns a particularly viable vehicle for rolling out Scrum. These notes give a short definitive summary of patterns (by example) and pattern languages. Next, they introduce basic Scrum patterns that the Scrum PLoP® effort has gathered over the past five years. After that we look at the "Scrum secrets" — Scrum fundamentals that most practitioners either aren't aware of or which usually go unheeded. Patterns help tease out the tradeoffs ("forces") for these forms in a way that makes them memorable. Last, we give a glimpse of how to use these patterns as a powerful way to evolve your own Scrum implementation to excellence.
Scale at Reddit: Triple Your Team Size Without Losing ControlAtlassian
As of 2017, Reddit has 300 million monthly visitors, ranking #4 most visited website in US and #8 in the world. As you can guess, this kind of tremendous traffic takes some serious engineering efforts that have had to scale with the site's growing popularity. Join Nicholas Caldwell, VP of Engineering at Reddit as he discusses his engineering team's approach to agile development as they scaled from 40 to 120 engineers. He will walk you through their use of tools like Jira and Tableau, discuss meeting rhythms, and cover the must-have cultural elements of a successful team that work at every point of scale.
Can you be successful without a plan for rolling out your collaboration initiative to users? Maybe. But it's going to cost you more and take you longer, and there's no guarantee your users will fully embrace it in the long run. Join collaboration expert Michael Sampson as he explains how applying the necessary time and resources upfront pays dividends.

Identifying and Managing Waste in Complex Product Development EnvironmentsKen Power
Product Development can be viewed as a Complex Adaptive System. Different people, groups, organizations and systems collaborate in a complex network of relationships and dependencies to produce something of value - generally a product or service. Identifying waste in this value network is a critical step towards creating a truly lean organization.
These slides are from an interactive, hands-on workshop that I ran at the Agile India 2012 conference in Bengaluru, India.

Org Topologies at Scrum Day Europe 2022, AmsterdamAlexey Krivitsky
Organizational Topologies: your roadmap towards an innovative, resilient and adaptive product development organization.
Many organizations struggle to adopt "agile" in a way that delivers on its promise to make the company fast, flexible and efficient.
Global consultancy firms have great pitches on how to adopt different so-called “Agile frameworks”. The marketing is great, but are the results too? We see how our clients get stuck in adopting a framework - forming “agile teams”, appointing “product owners” and then clustering all this into “tribes”. Thus creating robust structures that make further organizational improvements and adaptability difficult, slow, and expensive.
This talk offers ideas how to go beyond these limiting ideas and explores a map of organizational transformation based on orgtopologies.com.

Memorandum Of Association Constitution of Company.pptseri bangash
www.seribangash.com
A Memorandum of Association (MOA) is a legal document that outlines the fundamental principles and objectives upon which a company operates. It serves as the company's charter or constitution and defines the scope of its activities. Here's a detailed note on the MOA:
Contents of Memorandum of Association:
Name Clause: This clause states the name of the company, which should end with words like "Limited" or "Ltd." for a public limited company and "Private Limited" or "Pvt. Ltd." for a private limited company.
https://seribangash.com/article-of-association-is-legal-doc-of-company/
Registered Office Clause: It specifies the location where the company's registered office is situated. This office is where all official communications and notices are sent.
Objective Clause: This clause delineates the main objectives for which the company is formed. It's important to define these objectives clearly, as the company cannot undertake activities beyond those mentioned in this clause.
www.seribangash.com
Liability Clause: It outlines the extent of liability of the company's members. In the case of companies limited by shares, the liability of members is limited to the amount unpaid on their shares. For companies limited by guarantee, members' liability is limited to the amount they undertake to contribute if the company is wound up.
https://seribangash.com/promotors-is-person-conceived-formation-company/
Capital Clause: This clause specifies the authorized capital of the company, i.e., the maximum amount of share capital the company is authorized to issue. It also mentions the division of this capital into shares and their respective nominal value.
Association Clause: It simply states that the subscribers wish to form a company and agree to become members of it, in accordance with the terms of the MOA.
Importance of Memorandum of Association:
Legal Requirement: The MOA is a legal requirement for the formation of a company. It must be filed with the Registrar of Companies during the incorporation process.
Constitutional Document: It serves as the company's constitutional document, defining its scope, powers, and limitations.
Protection of Members: It protects the interests of the company's members by clearly defining the objectives and limiting their liability.
External Communication: It provides clarity to external parties, such as investors, creditors, and regulatory authorities, regarding the company's objectives and powers.
https://seribangash.com/difference-public-and-private-company-law/
Binding Authority: The company and its members are bound by the provisions of the MOA. Any action taken beyond its scope may be considered ultra vires (beyond the powers) of the company and therefore void.
Amendment of MOA:
While the MOA lays down the company's fundamental principles, it is not entirely immutable. It can be amended, but only under specific circumstances and in compliance with legal procedures. Amendments typically require shareholder

Marvin neemt je in deze presentatie mee in de voordelen van non-endemic advertising op retail media netwerken. Hij brengt ook de uitdagingen in beeld die de markt op dit moment heeft op het gebied van retail media voor niet-leveranciers.
Retail media wordt gezien als het nieuwe advertising-medium en ook mediabureaus richten massaal retail media-afdelingen op. Merken die niet in de betreffende winkel liggen staan ook nog niet in de rij om op de retail media netwerken te adverteren. Marvin belicht de uitdagingen die er zijn om echt aansluiting te vinden op die markt van non-endemic advertising.

Putting the SPARK into Virtual Training.pptxCynthia Clay
This 60-minute webinar, sponsored by Adobe, was delivered for the Training Mag Network. It explored the five elements of SPARK: Storytelling, Purpose, Action, Relationships, and Kudos. Knowing how to tell a well-structured story is key to building long-term memory. Stating a clear purpose that doesn't take away from the discovery learning process is critical. Ensuring that people move from theory to practical application is imperative. Creating strong social learning is the key to commitment and engagement. Validating and affirming participants' comments is the way to create a positive learning environment.
