Agile Influence: 8 Strategies to Empower You and Your Team
As part of an agile team, we are frequently in situations in which we hope to positively impact outcomes through our daily interactions. People skills are in demand but what are the tools? What can you do to influence and make your team great? Rather than logical argument, cognitive science shows the need to speak to subconscious motivators rather than our rational side. We present the strategies.

How to successfully create an internal think tankBEDENK
Today’s companies need to evolve constantly. The world is changing rapidly and they need to re-invent themselves…every day. This is at least a challenge.
Ideas pop up, workshops are organized, projects are launched.
At Bedenk we have created model-based processes and a structured approach to generate impactful ideas and turn them into efficient processes and projects. And we support and facilitate this.
So how can you determine priorities? How can you create a constant and controllable flux of ideas?
To have a constant flow of idea greatness, we strongy believe in the creation of an internal Think Tank.
This presentation will help working professional and students to become more efficient. This will enhance individuals performance and help them achieve their goals easily.
These slides are from the second session Mark Levison and I did at Agile2010 (6/11/2010). Mark's contact information is mark@agilepainrelief.com,

Games and a Design Thinking Approach to Agile transition help adopt agile practices in various contexts, business areas, projects types and countries.
This presentation is an introduction to Design Thinking and Innovation games and a feedback session from a large-scale agile deployment in one of the largest retail bank in the world. This approach puts design thinking and innovation games at its core as a means to adapt the deployment to the targeted organizational context. Games are design thinker tools that helps us facilitate adoption and ownership of new agile practices in various business areas, projects types and countries. More than seven countries were involved and we were able to collect a large amount of valuable information to support the scaled adoption in a short period. The result of our action opened new possibilities to engage people and experiment better ways to work!

Leading through uncertainty: Achieve outcomes in turbulent times with iter-ac...Agile Montréal
A 2020 HBR article summarized it well: “In normal times… leadership is not that critical... but in a crisis, even the strongest organizational habits, structures, and resources may be inadequate to meet challenges..” Leadership then becomes crucial.
In the months since March 2020, incredible transformations have been set into motion in so many organizations. Set in motion that is by leaders that embody key principles from Agile methodologies and combined with a new way to lead - IterActive Leadership.
In this insightful talk, leadership expert Marisa Murray will share the leadership practices that are fueling performance in these turbulent times. Drawing from her experience supporting C-Suite executives in Fortune 500 companies and her over two decades leading change and enterprise transformation programs herself. She will reveal powerful practices that you can begin to use immediately to navigate and thrive in this today’s rapidly changing, complex environment.
Marisa Murray
This session is for practitioners who are serious about business results and helping Agile values and principles succeed in large scale environments. David addresses the terrifying questions business owners have in the real world -- questions Agilists don't like talking about.
Agile work is messy business. We've broken the mold and a generation of executives and managers are reeling in ambiguity. They turn to consultants who throw frameworks at them. They turn to Agile Coaches and hear, ""it's all about mindset"". We need to do better than that!
We can elevate the discussion with business leaders and stop beating around the bush. Real business problems need serious answers.

This is the final presentation for the Catalytic Leadership workshop given at Agile2017. In this one will learn about about how to lead change through small influences no matter where you are in the organization. It also helps you understand that change needs to be focused on Environment, Support, and Trust and provides a trust model that can be used for this.

Connector Corner: Automate dynamic content and events by pushing a buttonDianaGray10
Here is something new! In our next Connector Corner webinar, we will demonstrate how you can use a single workflow to:
Create a campaign using Mailchimp with merge tags/fields
Send an interactive Slack channel message (using buttons)
Have the message received by managers and peers along with a test email for review
But there’s more:
In a second workflow supporting the same use case, you’ll see:
Your campaign sent to target colleagues for approval
If the “Approve” button is clicked, a Jira/Zendesk ticket is created for the marketing design team
But—if the “Reject” button is pushed, colleagues will be alerted via Slack message
Join us to learn more about this new, human-in-the-loop capability, brought to you by Integration Service connectors.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.
Gopinath Rebala
Gopinath Rebala is the CTO of OpsMx, where he has overall responsibility for the machine learning and data processing architectures for Secure Software Delivery. Gopi also has a strong connection with our customers, leading design and architecture for strategic implementations. Gopi is a frequent speaker and well-known leader in continuous delivery and integrating security into software delivery.

PHP Frameworks: I want to break free (IPC Berlin 2024)Ralf Eggert
In this presentation, we examine the challenges and limitations of relying too heavily on PHP frameworks in web development. We discuss the history of PHP and its frameworks to understand how this dependence has evolved. The focus will be on providing concrete tips and strategies to reduce reliance on these frameworks, based on real-world examples and practical considerations. The goal is to equip developers with the skills and knowledge to create more flexible and future-proof web applications. We'll explore the importance of maintaining autonomy in a rapidly changing tech landscape and how to make informed decisions in PHP development.
This talk is aimed at encouraging a more independent approach to using PHP frameworks, moving towards a more flexible and future-proof approach to PHP development.

"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.
