The Empowering Agile Teams Presentation has been presented at numerous Agile Conferences and has been VERY well received. Many teams get frustrated due to the lack of understanding of what they are expected to deliver vs what has been perceived. Gone are the days of opacity. Teams are better equipped to handle the day to day workload and are less fearful of commitment in an environment where healthy team relationships are valued.

The Essential Product Owner - Partnering with the teamCprime
Bob Galen shares real-world stories where he’s seen “effectively partnered” teams and Product Owners truly deliver balanced value for their business stakeholders. In this session he’ll show you how story mapping and release planning can truly set the stage for effective team workflow—establishing a “Big Picture” for everyone to shoot for. How establishing shared goals, both at the iteration and release levels, truly cements the partnership between team and Product Owner. And finally, how setting a tempo of regular, focused backlog grooming sessions establishes a mechanism for the team and Product Owner to explore well-nuanced and high value backlogs.

The way to understand anything
in life is to first understand the
fundamental concept that is
involve. For a subject like
“Effective Cash Management”,
the first thing to understand is
the difference between liquidity
and stupidity. Cash flow is the
lifeblood of a company and is
fundamental to its very existence.
Finance professionals must
understand how their decisions on
investment, operations and
financing lead to specific cash flow
moverments within the business
system. Part of the manager’s job
is to maintain an appropriate
balance between inflows and
outflows of cash. Unfortunately, an
intricate understanding of how
cash flows within company eludes
most business personnel.

"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.
Let's dive deeper into the world of ODC! Ricardo Alves (OutSystems) will join us to tell all about the new Data Fabric. After that, Sezen de Bruijn (OutSystems) will get into the details on how to best design a sturdy architecture within ODC.
