Presented at Agile Israel 2017. When it comes to shaping agile teams many organisations use a leader decides model. The design of the teams is often a very delicate balancing act. Skills, experience, subject matter expertise and personalities all need to be factored in and the end result is often less than ideal. So what if we took a different approach? What if we let the people who are going to be in the teams decide for themselves which mix of skills, experience, subject matters expertise and personalities are going to work best? In this session you will learn how Sandy Mamoli & David Mole's approach to self-selection (aka Squadification) has been used at one of Australia's largest banks to empower people to choose who they work with. This warts and all tale from the trenches will arm you to attempt your own self-secretion workshop, using proven techniques that have even been applied as part of launching a SAFe Agile Release Train.

Failing @ Scaling Agile? Don’t Panic! & Carry a Towel

Em Campbell-Pretty

Presentation at Mastering SAP 21st May 2017 Struggling with agile at scale? Thinking about scaling agile beyond the team? Want to learn from others’ mistakes? There is a lot to be learnt from those who have successfully hitchhiked their way through the galaxy of scaled agile. This session celebrates the scaled agile hitchhiker, the people who bravely tried ideas that were occasionally brilliant but often plain stupid. You will laugh, you will cry but you will also walk away with a nice long list of ideas not to try when scaling agile! • Seven failure patterns in scaling agile • An understanding of why these patterns lead to less than optimal results • Tips on how to avoid falling into these failure patterns

Em Campbell-Pretty

Presentation at the Sydney Agile@Scale Meetup 14th April 2015. "Often when an organisation introduces agile, management can be left wondering what their role is and how they can contribute. While some might suggest management should “just get out of the way” in my experience this is not the answer. Managers definitely have a role to play and an important one at that! " In this session Em will share her journey to becoming an Agile Leader. You will hear what made her start, the real world challenges she faced, the mistakes she made along the way and the secrets she discovered.

Demystifying the Role of Management in Agile

Em Campbell-Pretty

Often when an organisation introduces agile, management can be left wondering what their role is and how they can contribute. While some might suggest management should “just get out of the way” in my experience this is not the answer. Managers definitely have a role to play and an important one at that! In this session Em will share her journey to becoming an Agile Leader. You will hear what made her start, the real world challenges she faced, the mistakes she made along the way and the secrets she discovered. Attendees at this session are sure to walk away with a new appreciation of the role of managers in agile organisations and plenty of practical ideas that can be implemented in an organisation, regardless of whether they are agile or not!

The Key to the SAFe: Principles over Practices

Em Campbell-Pretty

Presentation given at Agile 2014. Are you working with multiple agile teams on a single software application? Are you looking for help with making agile work for you at the program level? Have you considered leveraging the Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe) but been scared off by its prescriptive nature? Are you confused about how program level SAFe applies in your context? Every organisation is different and what works for one organisation may not work for another. One of the benefits of a framework, is that they can and should be adapted to your context. Based on learnings derived from practical experience, this session will illustrate how focusing on values and principles over practice and processes, can help you design a pragmatic approach to program level SAFe suitable for your unique situation. By contrasting principles and practises this session will: * draw out the principles behind SAFe and the standard SAFe practises that apply to them, * show how practises from other scaling models align to SAFe principles and compliment program level SAFe; and, * share real word examples of how adapting SAFe practises, while remaining aligned to the principles, can help you create a working model applicable to your program

Imagine inheriting the job leading the "business as usual" change program for Westpac's new online banking platform. Your challenge, should you choose to accept it (like you have a choice), is to “turn it Agile”. You are “gifted” a SAFe Program Consultant, not that you know what that is. So you tell them of your predicament and ask if Agile will help. As one would expect, the Agile consultant can see the path to agility. However, the recommended approach seems somewhat unconventional. A one-week immersion program that will transform the waterfall machine into an Agile Release Train! Tune into this session to learn how one of Australia’s largest banks adopted Agile on a mission critical application overnight. Attendees at this session will learn the benefits and pitfalls of using SAFe’s notorious Quick Start approach to implementing Agile, and the facts about what it really takes to “Quick Start” an Agile Release Train.

Impact Mapping: Making an Impact over Shipping Software

Em Campbell-Pretty

Are you lost in a sea of business requirements? Are you struggling to articulate the business value of your technology project? Do your user stories lack context? Is there a lack of alignment between your delivery teams and business stakeholders? If you answered yes to one or more of these questions then this session is for you! Impact Mapping is a facilitation technique that brings technologists and senior stakeholders together meaningfully to explore options. It exposes assumptions and helps shape a path from “We want everything” to “We want to to make these impacts in this order” avoiding the trap of solutions looking for problems. This session provides an overview of how to create an Impact Map, share some real world examples of how impact mapping has helped support the delivery of software products and even provide an opportunity for you to start using the tool!

The Art of Building a Roadmap

Atlassian

The process of defining a roadmap is arguably one of the most difficult but important things a product manager has to do. Far too often roadmaps are built without the complete picture in mind, without the right timing, in silos, or are misdirected. How then can we ensure we’re doing it right? Is there really such a thing as an agile roadmap? This talk will draw from lessons learnt building product to provide practical tips and techniques enabling you to understand roadmap inputs, plan with different perspectives in mind, optimise for learning, communicate and set roadmap goals as well as find agility when the landscape around you changes.

Epic Champions - Better Software Through Empowered Engineers

Atlassian

How often has your engineering team been given an Epic to work on complete with user stories specifying grandeur designs and technical solutions? More often than not, engineers need to rip this apart to make it technically feasible. As an engineering leader at Hootsuite, Tyler Brown recognized this problem and responded by creating a concept called "Epic Champions". Epic Champions enables engineers to own an Epic from initial ideation through delivery and work with product and design to make the feature hit the mark every time. In this session Tyler will walk you through the Epic Champions concept and teach you how to trust and empower engineers to ultimately build higher quality software that truly meets customers needs.

MARRIS Consulting

Webinar by Clarke Ching Agile and ToC expert. Agile: the Good, the Bad and the Ugly. If your Agile is broken then this is how to fix it! Your Agile teams are busy. Busy delivering. Busy improving. Your quality is amazing. Rework is low. The product looks great. Your users love it. You are a high performing team! But your internal customers say your teams are slow. This session will teach you how to use the Theory of Constraints to figure out how to speed up, by finding the one thing that’s slowing them down. This webinar will cover how, in an Agile environment: - to better control scope creep, - to reinforce your relationship with the I.T. Development team’s client, - to be able to make commitments and honour them and - to decide where your bottleneck should be. About the speaker Clarke Ching is a computer scientist with an MBA who discovered Goldratt’s Theory of Constraints (ToC) in 2003 and has been using it ever since to accelerate Agile initiatives. He is fascinated by Agile and obsessed with ToC. He wrote the amazon best-sellers Rolling Rocks Downhill and The Bottleneck Rules. Rolling Rocks Downhill teaches 3 things: the fundamentals of Agile combined with ToC; how to use those fundamentals to deliver big projects faster and on time; and how to deliver quietly huge transformations. It’s been featured in The Guardian newspaper and The Spectator magazine. It was one of Barbara Oakley’s top 10 books of 2019. It was the #2 best-selling Leadership book on amazon.com, just behind Steven Covey’s 7-habits book. He has been Agile / Lean / ToC expert in: GE Energy, Dell, Royal London (life insurance & pensions), Gazprom and Standard Life Aberdeen among other organizations. He is the past Chairperson of Agile Scotland. He is a lecturer at Victoria University School Of Management in New Zealand where he now lives. Today he is the founder and Chief Productivity Officer of Odd Socks Consulting

Leading Agility - How Might We Co-Facilitate Self-Organization

Ian Pestelos #MovetheAverageUp

Agile Transformation is broken. It emphasizes development teams, individuals, and organizations moving from one state to another - devoid of the human element that creates the momentum and frictions to change. How might we - engineers, developers, testers, analysts, designers, and other team members - co-facilitate change towards self-organization through experimentation? How do we - Scrum Masters, line managers, and executives - manage the system and not the people? How can the organization build psychological safety within constraints? --- This talk was delivered at Philippine Software Engineering Conference in SMX Convention Center on October 24, 2017.

Story of LeSS by Bas Vodde

Institut Lean France

Bas Vodde is the creator of LeSS, a lightweight (agile) framework for scaling Scrum to more than one team. Toyota Production System and Lean Thinking have been an essential influence to LeSS. Lean Thinking is one of the ten LeSS principles. In this talk, he zoomed in a little on how and why Lean Thinking influenced LeSS and how similar thinking can help your development independent of ‘scaling framework’. LeSS is different with other scaling frameworks in the sense that it provides a very minimalistic framework that enables empiricism on a large-scale which enables the teams and organization to inspect-adapt their implementation based on their experiences and context. LeSS is based on the idea that providing too much rules, roles, artifacts and asking the organization to tailor it down is a fundamentally flawed approach and instead scaling frameworks should be minimalistic and allowing organizations to fill them in.

Migrating off legacy platforms while still delivering value - DNA & SAFe AU...

Em Campbell-Pretty

Many organisations have been on legacy, business critical platforms far longer than they would have liked or want to be. Many organisations faced with the massive transition are tempted to revert to a waterfall approach to accomplish the mission. This talk will outline ways to move from the existing platform to the new architecture in an incremental way. Learning Objectives: 1. Use the business Roadmap and Architectural Runway to understand how to incrementally move to a new technology platform 2. Define the business outcomes and align the migration effort to deliver those outcomes incrementally Learning Objective 2. Apply DevOps considerations from the beginning to help size and shape the total migration effort

Is There a Place for Individuals and Interactions in Enterprise Agility?

Em Campbell-Pretty

Presented at Agile2019 in Washington D.C. Is Enterprise Agility an oxymoron? We say we value Individuals and interactions over processes and tools however, the enterprise agility space is drowning in processes and tools. There are countless frameworks and innumerable tools to measure every part of a teams performance to dizzying detail. But what about individuals and interactions? Does this get overlooked because it’s “too hard”? How does an enterprise scale an agile practice beyond a team, into a team of teams, or boldly into an entire enterprise but not lose sight of this principle? In this session, Em & Adrienne will trade war stories with you about with Agile in the Enterprise and what role valuing Individuals and Interactions plays in successful transformations. Learning Outcomes: Identify Enterprise behaviours that are incongruent with valuing Individuals and Interactions, including leadership pitfalls. Explain the economic benefit of valuing individuals and interactions Describe the types of behaviours displayed by Enterprises that values Individuals and Interactions Apply valuing Individuals and Interactions in an Enterprise context

cPrime: Organizational Agility

Cprime

Most Agile adoptions put emphasis on training team members or specific roles. Having a group of “agile” teams does not provide the holistic change that is required within an organization looking to improve by adopting Agile, Scrum or Lean practices.Organizational Agility requires culture and paradigm shifts, changing the way work is approached, tackling impediments that are transparently exposed and in many cases, restructuring. Many organization leaders and managers say “this sounds great but where do I get started”? Join us for this session on how leaders can pragmatically begin the shift from traditional management to Agile management, enabling self-organization and becoming designers of the new environments that many organizations need to create in order for a successful Agile transformation.

Continuous Cycles in Test Automation

Derk-Jan de Grood

Test automation is still about testing. Join Ard and Derk-Jan in their quest to understand the continues life cycles in Test Automation. In 2012 Derk-Jan talked about requisites and organisational maturity for successful test automation, in 2013 he took the story further and added business case to the spectrum. Last year Ard en Derk-Jan presented their experience with implementing automation for Delta Lloyd. This presentation was all about the implementation strategy and how they used automation to drive test improvements. This year they expand their story: What if you have a test automation framework implemented in your organisation, but the tests just ain’t no good? Does that mean you are back to square one? We’ll explore the marriage between testing and automation. The benefit from each other when you want to make transitions from manual to automated testing, from waterfall to agile, from immature to full grown test department, from technical- towards business driven. Finely will close the circle stating that the true success of test AUTOMATION actually lies in automating TESTS. Lessons to be learned • Understanding the continues life cycles in test automation: You will get back to your starting point • How test maturity, business case and implementation strategy are related • How to set up a automation service team with SLA and Product service catalogue • The historical shift from “not having to automate” to “how to get the requisites for TA in place”

The Business of Agile - Better Faster Cheaper

Ryan Ripley

During my last agile transformation a key stakeholder asked me, “Why are we doing this?” I talked about increasing quality, delivering software sooner, and fostering a more collaborative relationship with our business partners. After a few minutes, he raised his hand and stopped me. “I get all that. BUT how is all of this agile stuff any better, faster, or cheaper than what we do today?” Leaders must answer the “better, faster, cheaper” question if they want their agile transformation and projects to move forward. To prepare leaders for this critical question, we explore how “better, faster, cheaper” translates to an agile organization, the metrics a leader can use to track progress towards “better, faster, and cheaper”, and how leaders can demonstrate the benefits gained from their agile activities.

Extreme SAFe - Turning Up the Flow in PI Execution

Em Campbell-Pretty

Presentation at the SAFe Summit 2022. PI Planning is in the bag and the train has left the station, at last, you can relax. Or so you thought…. The first iteration is fairly quiet, the second seems smooth as well and then it happens, without warning you are over halfway through the PI and your train has derailed without any warning. How did this happen?! You held all the PI Execution events as described in the textbook but your train looks like it won't be delivering the cargo to the next station on time. What else could you have done? What if you applied the Extreme Programming mantra to PI Execution, by taking proven good SAFe practices and then took them to the extreme or as we say turn up the good? In this long-awaiting sequel to their 2021 SAFe Summit session about “Turning up the magic in PI Planning”, Em & Adrienne will show you how they take PI Execution to the next level by turning up the flow. Learning outcomes: - Recognise how the SAFe Principles can be applied to “turn up the flow” in SAFe PI Execution. - Adapt the batch size of SAFe PI Execution Events to improve flow. - Introduce new PI Execution patterns that enable greater flow.

The 7 Habits of Highly Effective Lean-Agile Leaders

Em Campbell-Pretty

Presentation at Agile Australia 2020 (December 2021!) The foundation of a Lean-Agile organisation is Lean-Agile leadership. This is all well and good but it often requires a significant cultural shift to become a reality. We know from Kotter’s Leading Change that to change the culture of the organisation we first have to change the habits of the organisation. So what are the habits of effective Lean-Agile leaders? Join this session to explore the habits of effective Lean-Agile leaders, their origins in Lean/TPS/Japan and their application in today’s world.

Turning Up the Magic in PI Planning

Em Campbell-Pretty

Presentation by Em Campbell-Pretty & Adrienne Wilson at the Global SAFe Summit 2021 Mob Programming thought leader, Woody Zuill, suggests that instead of always focusing on solving problems, we also take the time to notice the things that are going well and amplify them, thereby "turning up the good". When it comes to SAFe Dean Leffingwell perhaps said it best: "There is no magic in SAFe . . . except maybe for PI Planning." I suspect most of you agree that PI Planning is the magic in SAFe. There is nothing quite like the energy created by bringing a group of 100+ people together to build a collaborative plan over a couple of days every 10 to 12 weeks. So what would it mean to "turn up the good in PI Planning"? If we focused on what is good and what we want more of, would we get more magic?! For Em and Adrienne, the answer is a resounding "Yes!" In this session, they will take the "The Facilitator’s Guide to PI Planning" and illustrate how turning up the good can bring your PI Planning magic to the next level.

Responsible Tech Starts with Culture

Em Campbell-Pretty

Presentation at the Responsible Tech Summit 16th Jun 2020. Culture is the shared attitudes, behavioural patterns, and values of human groups, teams and tribes. If we want our organisations to create sustainable products and services underpinned by integrity, trust and value, then we will need to build the culture to support this. In this session Em will explore how you can sow the seeds of a culture that supports responsible tech in your organisation.

What should you do when you have everything to lose? Be safe or be SAFe?

Em Campbell-Pretty

Keynote at the Women in Agile Gathering at the Gloabl SAFe Summit on 3rd October 2019. When you are thrown in the deep end of the pool and you don’t know how to swim, it's a scary time. As a leader, it can be easy to try a radical new idea especially when you feel you have nothing to lose. But what if you have everything to lose? Fear can be paralyzing. It is the courageous leader that ‘steps into the arena and dares to be different’. Attend this keynote to explore how leaders can survive and thrive by letting go of everything they think they have to lose and taking a radical leap into the unknown - with or without a net!

Self-Selection: A SAFe Approach to Forming Agile Release Trains

Em Campbell-Pretty

Presented on 2nd October 2019 at the Global SAFe Summit 2019. When it comes to shaping agile teams, many organisations use a leader decides model. The design of the teams is often a very delicate balancing act. Skills, experience, subject matter expertise and personalities all need to be factored in and the end result is often less than ideal. So, what if we took a different approach? What if we let the people who are going to be in the teams decide for themselves which mix of skills, experience, subject matter expertise and personalities are going to work best? In this session you will learn how Sandy Mamoli & David Mole's approach to self-selection (aka Squadification) has been used with SAFe to empower people to choose who they work with. This warts and all tale from the trenches will arm you to attempt your own self-selection workshop when launching or reshaping Agile Release Trains. Learning Objectives: Explain the value of using self-selection to create teams Identify where the standard self-selection guidance needs to be modified for SAFe Prepare for & facilitate a self-selection event

Learning from the Books You Said You Read...

Em Campbell-Pretty

Presentation by Em Campbell-Pretty & Melissa Hay at Agile 2019. Have you ever noticed how almost every speaker at every agile conference references a ton of books? Did you ever wonder if they even read those books? And if so, how did they remember what they read? And did they take action based on what they read? What about the last book you read? What experiments did you run whilst reading the book or after finishing it? Or can you not remember the last time you read a non-fiction book? We all know that trust, safety, flow and product orientation are keys to success with agile teams. We are all striving for high performing teams that deliver great products. Sometimes all the blogs, books and LinkedIn posts are just too much to consume. So how can we bring these ideas into our real world? Here’s your opportunity to see how we go about learning from books. We will share examples of books we’ve digested and experiments we have run with real teams to see them thrive. This is the insiders’ guide to making a real difference with what you learnt from all the books you said you read.

Em Campbell-Pretty

Keynote at Mile High Agile 2019. We all go to conferences, attend meetups, read books, and subscribe to blogs. Everyday we hear new ideas but how many do we actually act on? When you are thrown in the deep end of the pool and you don’t know how to swim – it can be a scary time. As a leader, it can be easy to try a radical new idea especially when you feel you have nothing to lose. But what if you have everything to lose? Fear can be paralyzing. It is the Fierce leader that ‘steps into the arena and dares to be different’. Attend this keynote to explore how Fierce leaders can survive and thrive by letting go of everything they think they have to lose and taking a radical leap into the unknown – with or without a net!

The Seven Habits of Highly Effective Servant Leaders

Em Campbell-Pretty

Presentation at the Global SAFe Summit 4th October 2018. SAFe says that effective Scrum Masters, RTE and STEs are servant leaders. This is all well and good but it often requires a significant cultural shift to become a reality. We know from Kotter’s Leading Change that to change the culture of the organisation we first have to change the habits of the organisation. So what are the habits of effective servant leaders? In this session Em will share her learnings from 20 years as a senior manager in industry, 7 years as full time SAFe practitioner and one Lean Study Trip to Japan!

TRIBAL UNITY: A Culture First Approach To Enterprise Agility (Keynote AgileC...

Em Campbell-Pretty

Keynote @ AgileCamp Dallas 1st December 2017. Kotter says "Culture change comes last, not first", but what if it didn't have to? What if there was a way to start your agile transformation by creating a one team culture? Based on Amazon #1 best seller, Tribal Unity: Getting From Teams to Tribes by Creating a One Team Culture, Em Campbell-Pretty will share the proven patterns she has been successfully applying in the field over the past five years. Peppered with tales from the trenches this session will be full of practical ideas to help you lead your enterprise towards Tribal Unity.

Tribal Unity: The Heart of Scaling Agile - Keynote Agile Israel 2017

Em Campbell-Pretty

When it comes to agile at scale, it is necessary to think beyond a single agile team to a team of teams, or tribe. It is the culture of this team of teams that dictates its effectiveness. Which begs the question, how do you create an entire program or department that is a "great place to work"? Based on her debut book, Tribal Unity: Getting From Teams to Tribes by Creating a One Team Culture, Em Campbell-Pretty will share the proven patterns she has been successfully applying in the field over the past five years. Peppered with tales from the trenches this session will be full of practical ideas to help you lead a teams of agile teams towards Tribal Unity.

From Teams to Tribes: Creating a One Team Culture

Em Campbell-Pretty

Presentation at Mastering SAP in Melbourne (May 2017). People naturally form tribes. It is just what we do. When we bring together teams to work in a department, or on a program or product this team of teams will become a tribe. However, not all tribes are equally effective. Just like with regular teams it is the culture of the tribe that dictates its effectiveness. When we look to improve the performance of these teams of teams, we often get so focused on improving technical skills and individual performance that we can easily forget to help the teams involved bond, foster a sense of belonging, shape their values and instil respect for one another. To maximise the effectiveness of any team of teams, we need to take the time to build a culture beyond the team’s individual identity to create a sense of tribal unity. Based on her debut book, Tribal Unity: Getting from Teams to Tribes by Creating a One Team Culture, Em Campbell-Pretty will share the proven patterns she has been successfully applying in the field over the past five years. Peppered with tales from the trenches this session will be full of practical ideas to help you lead a team of teams towards tribal unity.

Tribal Unity Book Launch @ Agile Denver, 27th October 2016

Em Campbell-Pretty

Tribal Unity: The Heart of Scaling Agile When it comes to agile at scale, it is necessary to think beyond a single agile team to a team of teams, the whole tribe. Just like with an individual agile team it is the culture of the tribe that dictates its effectiveness. So, how do you move beyond a positive culture within a specific agile team to creating an entire program or department that is a "great place to work"? When we start to scale agile, we tend to teach our teams about the methodology, how their roles will change and how we expect them to be collaborative. What is often forgotten is the need to help these teams of teams bond, foster a sense of belonging, shape their values and instil respect for one another. Succeeding with Agile at Scale requires explicitly creating and sustaining these attributes, building a culture beyond team’s individual identity to create a sense of Tribal Unity. Based on her debut book, Tribal Unity: Getting From Teams to Tribes by Creating a One Team Culture (http://amzn.to/2hHT2R4), Em Campbell-Pretty will share the proven patterns she has been successfully applying in the field over the past five years. Peppered with tales from the trenches this session will be full of practical ideas to help you lead a teams of agile teams towards Tribal Unity. We may even form our own little tribe.....

Failing @ Scaling: Don't Panic, and Carry a Towel - Agile2016

Em Campbell-Pretty

Presented at Agile 2016. Struggling with agile at scale? Thinking about scaling agile beyond the team? Want to learn from others mistakes? Well don’t panic, and carry a towel. After all “any man who can hitch the length and breadth of the Galaxy, rough it, slum it, struggle against terrible odds, win through and still know where his towel is , is clearly a man to be reckoned with.” There is a lot to be learnt from those who have successfully Hitchhiked their way to the galaxy of Scaled Agile, but there is also much to learn from those who have gotten a little lost upon the way. This session celebrates the scaled agile hitchhiker, the people who tried and failed, with ideas that were occasionally brilliant but often plain stupid. You will laugh, you will cry but you will also walk away will a nice long list of ideas not to try when scaling agile! Learning Outcomes: - 7 failure patterns in scaling agile - An understanding of why these patterns lead to less than optimal results - Tips on how to avoid falling into these failure patterns

Agile2016 - Leadership is an Extreme Sport

Em Campbell-Pretty

Presented at Agile2016 “We have diluted the meaning of leadership to such a profound degree that it’s become just another label. But LEADERSHIP is not that easy, so we con ourselves into believing that the WORD is the same as the ACTION.” - Steve Farber Do you live in a world of empty suits? So called leaders that say one thing and do another? Do you dream of being a different type of leader? Perhaps a great leader? Perhaps a leader who has an impact on the world? Are you prepared to take a radical LEAP into a different approach to Leadership? In this session we will explore the Extreme Leadership Framework from Steve Farber's book The Radical Leap and learn how to put the meaning back into the word leadership. Be prepared to step outside your comfort zone, face your fear and change the world!

So called leaders that say one thing and do another? Do you dream of being a different type of leader? Perhaps a great leader? Perhaps a leader who has an impact on the world? Are you prepared to take a radical LEAP into a different approach to Leadership? In this session we will explore the Extreme Leadership Framework from Steve Farber's book The Radical Leap and learn how to put the meaning back into the word leadership. Be prepared to step outside your comfort zone, face your fear and change the world! Additional Info: This is a 90 minute workshop based on material I learnt when I attended the Extreme Leadership workshop with Steve Farber in San Diego earlier this year. I want to share Extreme Leadership with that agile community as I believe it is an approach that is highly aligned with agile values. It is also an approach that can be applied by anyone,

Thawing the Frozen Middle: The role of Managers in organisations using Scrum

Em Campbell-Pretty

Many enterprise Agile adoptions begin with a CIO on a stage announcing a Call to Agility. Coaches are engaged, teams respond enthusiastically and the executives eagerly await the promised benefits. When reality hits and things aren’t changing fast enough, the finger pointing starts, and more often than not the frozen middle are caught in the crossfire. To add insult to injury, when an organisation introduces Scrum, middle management is often left wondering what their role is and how can they contribute? Many Agilists have suggested we should get rid of them. In my view, you need to embrace them as they do have a role to play, and an important one at that. In this session, we will explore techniques for harnessing the energy of managers at any level: frozen or otherwise! We will help them accelerate their journey towards becoming agile leaders. The presentation was given at Scrum Australia on 29th April 20166.

Thawing the "Frozen Middle" - SGFLA

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI support

Alan 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.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !

KatiaHIMEUR1

Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster. However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks. In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024

Tobias Schneck

As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other? Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.
