Arie van Bennekum

Business Agility is on the table in a lot of companies. Strange it is only happening the last couple of years, Agility only has corporate benefits when you do it all together and not just IT. On top of this, companies who want that transformation, struggle to become Agile. What is needed to make that change and btw, what does the Agile domain have to offer? Arie’s answer has always been agnostic, even in his delivery projects before writing the Agile Manifesto. He will take you on his journey and point out how Agnostic Agile helps him and how he mixes practices from various methodologies depending on the needs of the team.

Peter Lam

Have you “gone agile”?
What do you do after you’ve ‘gone’ agile with over 17,000 people?
When large corporations take a ‘top down’ view to implement agile typically it isn’t really what the authors of the agile manifesto really meant.
What happens next to move it to agility?
Peter Lam will explore these questions with tales from the trenches.

The Shape of an Agile Organization
Business agility is a set of organizational capabilities, behaviors, and ways of working that affords your business the freedom, flexibility, and resilience to achieve its purpose. No matter what the future brings.
With this freedom, companies can instinctively seize emerging and unforeseen opportunities for their customers’ benefit and bring focus to how work is conducted across the entire organization. It’s not just processes and procedures. It is principles and ways of thinking that lead to new organizational behaviors and norms.
To understand this, in 2017 the Business Agility Institute began work to clarify what it means to be an agile organization, regardless of industry, size, or context. Since then, over a thousand companies have taken part in this research, culminating in a behavioral model for business agility.
In this, our research has identified 13 high performance, customer-centric, and innovation & growth capabilities that organizations seek to develop and improve to increase their business agility. The specific mix and level of these capabilities, and the observable behaviors that express them, form the shape of agility.

Anna Zakoyan

Many traditional companies are used to setting business objectives and linking those to works that product teams do. As a result, team members get perplexed by those objectives and concentrate on what they understand, i.e., their tasks. It is tough to explain to a product team how their work could, for example, increase the revenue by 20% or whatsoever.
Instead, if the objective is user-centric, showing the outcome of user behavior in the system, that would be clear and attached to the work that product teams do, creating a common focus and goal.
So how do you set the right goals? What are the product outcome goals? How to link those to iteration work that teams produce? How to make their work valuable? This session will answer all those questions and way more.

Start: 09:00 AM (CET)

Sath believes great leadership and the adoption of the right blend of styles of leadership plays a key part in creating the right culture for agility. He has become increasingly more passionate about the role of social leadership and the application of the NET model, which aligns well to many of the more human-centred ideas of the original Agile manifesto.

Fernando Pinciroli

After twenty years of the writing of the Agile Manifesto and all the accumulated experience, it was seen that Agile is not only the implementation of a set of tools, but a change of paradigm that should lead us to permanent adaptation to a changing reality through an attitude of reflection and continuous improvement. The simplicity of a set of techniques often does not allow us to see the complexity is hidden and that we must manage to achieve the expected agility.
