The document discusses opportunities for applying artificial intelligence (AI) to help Scrum Masters and agile teams. It describes how AI could automate certain routine tasks like tracking metrics, managing risks and issues, and facilitating agile ceremonies. A case study is presented of a multi-line insurer that implemented a virtual Scrum Master using AI to gain benefits like reduced hours spent on non-productive and ceremonial tasks. Challenges of adopting a virtual Scrum Master are also outlined, such as data and technology limitations, as well as potential mindset shifts needed to accept AI as a team member.
Agility is a path. It is a journey; a journey of continuous improvement. Increasing enterprise agility requires that top-down change management is connected to the bottom-up enthusiasm of Scrum.
Ken Schwaber and Gunther Verheyen from Scrum.org started presenting the new "Agility Path" framework in July 2013. It was first presented at the Scrum Day Europe in Amsterdam, Netherlands, and at a SIG event by the VKSI in Karlsruhe, Germany.
Agility Path introduces the use of the Scrum framework to manage the change process toward increased agility across the organization, without making Scrum the mandatory process for the entire organization.
DevOps is rapidly changing how teams work and increasing the pace of software creation. With a plethora of development, test automation, continuous integration and delivery, and security tools, where do you start?

In this webinar, Mitch Ashley, Managing Analyst with Accelerated Strategies Group, covers best practices and lessons learned when introducing DevOps software which increases the success of DevOps adoption and demonstrates the value DevOps brings to technology, product and business leaders.
In this webinar, we'll discuss:
Approaches to getting started based upon DevOps best practices.
Start over, ebuild or reuse existing software practices?
DevOps tooling and toolchain strategies leading to successful outcomes.

Team Topologies in action - early results from industry - DOES London Virtual...Matthew Skelton
A talk given at DevOps Enterprise Summit Virtual 2020
---
Since the book Team Topologies was published in 2019, organizations around the world have started to adopt Team Topologies principles and practices like Stream-aligned teams, modern platforms, well-defined team interactions, and team cognitive load as a key driver for fast software delivery and operations.
We will look at examples from these organizations:
* Gjensidige Insurance, a leading Nordic insurance company with 4000 employees and business in the Nordic and Baltic countries, uses the four fundamental team types to clarify team responsibilities and interactions and is moving towards several “thinnest viable platforms” with Stream-aligned teams as internal customers
* PureGym is Britain’s largest gym chain - the first to gain over 1 million members. As PureGym expanded, so did the need for software to enable their members to book and manage gym sessions. Since 2019, PureGym has re-aligned its teams and team interactions based on Team Topologies patterns, helping to scale the engineering teams and improve flow.
* uSwitch / RVU, one of the UK’s leading consumer price comparison websites, has grown a modern platform from scratch, allowing stream-aligned teams to focus on consumers needs, offloading infrastructure provisioning concerns to the platform which also provides cross-cutting services around scalability, security and data management
* Visma is one of the leading software development companies in Europe with nearly 1 million customers in 21 countries. Team Topologies has helped to define and accelerate a transformation begun in 2015 to improve service ownership and speed of changes.
* Wealth Wizards is a UK company making financial advice affordable and accessible to everyone through online tools and apps. The engineering division at Wealth Wizards has used the Team Topologies ideas around team cognitive load to help right-size their teams and align teams to the most important flows of business change.
For each of these examples, we explore how the ideas and patterns in Team Topologies were useful to the organization and the results of the changes.

Why Agile Fail. *Hint* -it's more than just processTasktop
Presented by Zubin Irani, CEO, cPrime & Scot Garrison, Director of Professional Services, Tasktop
A successful Agile transformation requires a combination of people, process and technology, but too often these aspects are treated separately. Agile Coaches insist on remaining tool agnostic, and the agile management software experts often do not know the Agile process. Organizations with successful Agile teams often fail to replicate this success when they attempt to scale these practices throughout the software delivery organization.
To succeed in transforming to Agile, organizations must replace this fragmented approach with one that connects the entire application lifecycle with tools that are tightly integrated and automated to support processes. Join us as we demonstrate how this unified approach allows companies to
speed delivery through real-time collaboration
increase visibility of project status and compliance with cross tool traceability and reporting
encourage the use of specialized tools that support practitioners’ process.

Enterprises want to deliver more value with higher quality at a faster pace. Many development teams have adopted agile frameworks to improve their ability to deliver software. This has led to a local optimization for the development teams and they have become good at delivering potentially shippable increments of their products, but from there, they typically see organizational constraints in moving it to the customer. The development organization is quickly adding features to the queue waiting to be released, but the operations teams are struggling to support fires in production, maintain stability, and provide the environments and infrastructure needed so development teams can move their new functionality forward. The operation team’s focus on stability usually minimizes the number of changes in production thus creating infrequent, large batches being deployed at a planned date. Can Agile and DevOps bring the development and operations teams together to remove the organizational constraints in moving the software to the customer?
In this session, we’ll talk about the relationship of Agile and DevOps, not as an intersection, but as a progression of capability with development and operation teams working together to remove those constraints. We’ll discuss how using Agile and DevOps practices together, teams can release value faster, with higher quality, and in more stable environments making it safer to deploy.

Digital Transformation: Empowering People to Adapt to the CloudAmazon Web Services
A successful cloud-transformation journey incorporates three pillars: people, process, and technology. Too often, organizations focus on process improvements and technology implementation, but ignore the human aspect. Many leaders acknowledge that the first two are easy to modify, while influencing culture is more difficult. This session covers best-practice methods for empowering customers to address this challenge. Learn about roles and responsibilities germane to the transition and post-cloud adoption phase. Assess your organization’s gaps among the requisite skills and competencies. Build effective training models, and encourage an adaptive culture.
