Collaboration spaces - Yay or Nay
Collaboration spaces, agile floor-plans, open office plans....love it or hate it, you can't ignore it.
From our experience across various companies - some with 6 feet high cubicles walls to some with completely modern collab workspaces - we would like to share what seems to work and what doesn't.
We would also link it to underlying mindsets and cultures and when and why some spaces seem to work better than others.
We would also give examples of very high collaboration in very silo-ed workspaces - and when and why that works!
Outline/Structure of the Case Study
- Traditional office spaces
- Open office plans and similar plans
- What works
- What doesn't work
- Culture, Mindset, Change Management and Workspaces - the interplay
Learning Outcome
Go back armed with knowledge, anecdotes, tips and tricks to rock that collab workspace (or those cosy little cubicles)

Change is tough! Big changes are tougher!
As people initiating change as well as people experiencing change, there are some attitudes and stances that will help us ride the wave of change rather than falter and drown.
Some of these, amongst others, that have helped us immensely in our experiences are The Principle of Heliotropism and Ubuntu!
We would love to share our experiences so other can learn from our failures, successes and more.
Expect a lot of anecdotes!

Carol Mathrani / vinaya muralidharan - Mindset Change - Over hyped?
20 Mins
Talk
Intermediate
Do we always point all the reasons of failure in transformations to mindset change. Is it our one go to whenever we face a wall or failures and is it true? In this session we will look at what is mindset change, and how sometimes it could be insecurities and territorial dominance.
- We will talk about a few examples of areas and people where it was thought to be a mindset problem, but how not always that aspect is the key player
- Ways to identify the problems that seem like mindset - and create a cloud over the actual problem and how it deviates us from solving the real issue, this is why most organizations feel that we cannot make a mindset change
- What can we do to overcome them to make the change
Presentation of a few real life examples to support the findings

Carol Mathrani / vinaya muralidharan - Agile Coaching – Bordering on the trenches

We usually have variety of opinions and suggestions on what and how a coach is expected to do or the kind of people and attitude they need to adopt. Sometimes it is a box, that everyone tries to fit into until you feel you have an identity crisis. In this session we want to look at the myths, the pitfalls and the perceptions that we need to break. Some examples/case studies showing the challenges, the confidence breaks and finally the awakening of a new coach or the burial of an existing one. We would also have a small workshop on identifying your one strength as a coach and how it can be mapped with the needs of the team and leaders – looking within. All of us have that one strength we don’t need to find it in others.
To support the above myths and challenges, we would also share a case study outlining the scenarios for certain situations where coaches have self doubt and how we either overcome it and many times just give up and go back to status quo
