SUMMARY:Workshop Getting more out of Agile and Lean in Prague
DESCRIPTION:Are you interested in learning practices for teams and their stakeholders to develop the right products\, deliver faster\, increase quality\, and create happy high performing teams? Come to my workshop Getting more out of Agile and Lean in Prague on September 11! \nMany organizations are going through agile transformations. They are implementing Scrum and maybe large scale agile frameworks like SAFe\, LeSS or DAD\, hoping to better serve the IT needs of the business and to develop products that satisfy their customer’s needs. \nUnfortunately\, those transformations do not always live up to the agile promise of delivering faster\, better products that customers really like or reducing the IT costs. As a result\, many organizations are not getting the expected business benefits out of Agile. \nReplacing processes doesn’t make an organization Agile. You need to apply agile or lean practices\, with an agile mindset. Be able to pick those practices that help your teams and stakeholders to do a better job. Practices that you can use in the planning game and your daily stand-ups\, in your daily stand-ups with your Scrum and Kanban boards\, for your product reviews/demos and in your agile retrospectives. \nGetting more out of Agile and Lean\nIn this workshop\, you will experience agile and lean practices for teams and stakeholders with advice on how to deploy them\, and tips and tricks to become more agile and lean. This workshop is intended for: \n\nTechnical (team) leaders and Scrum masters\n(Senior) Developers and Tester\nProduct Owners and Project/Line Managers\nAgile and Lean Coaches\nAnybody involved in agile transformations\n\nThe practices in this workshop will help you to develop the right products for your business and customers\, reduce your delivery time\, increase the quality of your software products\, and create happy high performing teams. \nWhat will you get out of this workshop?\n\nEffective practices for planning\, daily stand-ups\, product reviews and retrospectives\nIdeas for improving collaboration in teams and between teams and stakeholders\nTips and tricks to improve your agile way of working\nAdvice on selecting and applying agile and lean practices effectively\n\nTrainer\nBen Linders is an Independent Consultant in Agile\, Lean\, Quality and Continuous Improvement\, based in The Netherlands. Author of Getting Value out of Agile Retrospectives\, Waardevolle Agile Retrospectives & What Drives Quality. As an adviser\, coach and trainer he helps organizations by deploying effective software development and management practices.

SUMMARY:Workshop Increasing your Agility at Agile by Example 2017
DESCRIPTION:Agile by Example\nAgileByExample has been organised since 2011. It all started with 125 agilists in a small Warsaw music club. Since then\, each year ABE was growing. \nThe key trademark of ABE is the “by example” theme—the conference provides case studies and experience reports of real world struggles with adopting agile methods and techniques. Beside that ABE is known for the audio/video quality (organized in cinema rooms with huge screens and superb sound systems) and top-notch organization. \nContact me for a discount to attend Agile by Example! \nWorkshop Increasing your Agility\nI’m doing a 1/2 day Dojo – seats are limited. \nThere isn’t a standard route to become agile\, you have to find your own way. Methods and frameworks don’t tell you how to increase your agility.\nThe Agile Self-Assessment Game is an “agile map”. You will play the game to find out how agile you are and get inspired with ideas and suggestions on where to go next on your agile journey.\nThe Backpacking Retrospective Exercise can be used to visualize your path to agility and decide what you will take along on their journey. Doing this exercise helps you to decide upon the vital few actions that are needed now to prepare and continue your agile journey.\nCome play the Agile Self-Assessment Game and the Backpacking Retrospective Exercise in teams to discover how agile you are and what you need to pack to increase your agility.\nPlayers will receive a link to download the card game and retrospective exercise so that they can play them in their own organization (CC BY-NC-ND 3.0 License).
