Seoul Test Conference - Agile in Europe, The way its done.Derk-Jan de Grood
• Last week I visited South Korea and gave a presentation on the SSTC. I was asked to give a overview of the way that we do Agile in Europe. Since Agile is not an out of the box approach, it is hard to explain how we do Agile in Europe. There is not such as one way. But In this presentation I combine my experience, the information I gather whilst visiting various European Conference with Benchmark research. I believe the presentation gives a nice overview of the things we are struggling with and the agile test challenge.
We perceive military organisations such as Navy seals or the army to be bureaucratic, command-and-control, top-down organisations - on some occasions resembling our traditional corporates, however, high-performing teams in the military apply leadership principles at all levels. The talk outlines these leadership principles required to create high-performing teams in any context using anecdotes and stories from authors such as Jocko Willken and David Marquet. Ultimately, individuals and teams need to take Extreme Ownership of what they do in order to drive success

Post-Agile Methodologies and all that JazzStojan Peshov
It's been 15 years since the Agile Manifesto was signed and several methodologies were raised ever since. There is almost no developer nowdays that haven't adopted at least one of the Agile principles and uses them in everyday work or even private life. Some has even done improvised versions which work according their needs.
The question that's been around these past years is if the Agile is old enough to become past and what's the next big thing, is it a time to call it Post-Agilit period and what that means. What has or needs to change in order to abandon the old and become the Post Agilit followers.
Lots of teams already claim themselves as Post-Agilit pioneers and some new ideas of methodologies have been introduced. I'll try to bring an overview of some of them and bring you some thoughts that might help answering the above questions.
In the contemporary world economy, India is the second-largest exporter of IT and ITES services, which denotes a huge presence of IT services based industry in India. Due to time zone difference and distance there are huge gaps between Clients and service provide, Which eventually leads to disruption in business and produces havoc on both sides. With introduction of scrum framework in software development process the clients and IT service provides are reaping fruits in multiple arena like closer collaboration, effective change management and transparent process etc. This presentation will discuss about the gratifications Indian IT industry received after Scrum framework being implemented for IT and ITES sectors along with the discussion about ‘How Indian IT business can grow by implementing Scrum Framework’.

Agile software development has proven to be more successful than traditional methods. However there are many Agile methodologies (Scrum, Kanban, Lean, XP). It is difficult to make a right choice.
Do you want to know the differences between Scrum and Lean? Perhaps you struggle with your existing Scrum implementation and looking for a better methodology. So did I. I spent many hours looking for continuous improvement beyond Retrospectives and Sprint Reviews. And I found my answer in applying Lean Principles.
This session will help you to increase your understanding of Lean and Scrum. It will also give you some practical examples of implementing Lean in Scrum teams.
Embracing Uncertainty: A Most Difficult Leap of FaithTechWell
For the past couple of years, Dan North has been working with and studying teams who are dramatically more productive than any he's ever seen. In weeks they produce results that take other teams months. One of the central behaviors Dan has observed is their ability to embrace uncertainty, holding multiple contradictory opinions at the same time and deferring commitment until there is a good reason. Embracing uncertainty lies at the heart of agile delivery and is one of the primary reasons organizations struggle with agile adoption. We are desperately uncomfortable with uncertainty, so much so that we will replace it with anything-even things we know to be wrong. Dan claims we have turned our back on the original Agile Manifesto, and explains why understanding risk and embracing uncertainty are fundamental to agile delivery-and why we find it so scary. He describes how techniques like real options and deliberate discovery can expose dogma and make life more manageable. Join Dan to learn ways to face-and even embrace-uncertainty with courage and determination.

Interview with Elizabeth Harrin - FAPM
Introduction
Elizabeth is a career project and programme manager with over a decade of experience in healthcare and
financial services. She is the author of ‘Collaboration Tools for Project Managers’, ‘Customer-Centric Project
Management’ and ‘Shortcuts To Success: Project Management in the Real World’ as well as a regular speaker at
conferences and events.
She is the director of Otobos Consultants Ltd, a consultancy that focuses on project management copywriting. They
help people tell the story of their project more effectively.
Which is better: PRINCE2™ or Agile?
Better for what? Better for whom?
Neither is inherently better – they both have a place, as long as contextually it’s
appropriate for the project you are working on.
Is PRINCE2™ dead?
No. Next!
Seriously: PRINCE2™ is still the foundation of many projects,
especially in the public sector, here and in Europe, I think
because of the clear processes and above all the governance
framework.
PRINCE2™ continues to evolve and a new version is due out later
this year.
There is also the PRINCE2™ Agile qualification which shows how
both approaches can fit together to get better outcomes overall.
Do you work with PRINCE2™, Agile, or both?
Personally, I don’t work strictly with either. I hold the PRINCE2 Practitioner certificate and
I’ve certainly been trained in a PRINCE2 way, but most of my projects use a hybrid
methodology tailored to the organisational culture and the type of projects I do. We are
‘agile with a small a’ but I would say it’s more PRINCE2 than Agile proper.
Do you choose methodology based on the project / assignment / need at hand?
I do what’s needed to get the job done on time, on budget and with the required quality outcomes, while keeping the stakeholders happy. Once you’ve got
enough experience, you act on instinct rather than following the guidance from a manual, but you need to stay within the governance requirements of the
organisation.
And if you remember nothing else: Tailor, tailor, tailor! Learn the rules and then learn how to throw them away: use what you need to and nothing more.
