Communities of Practice - the not-so-hidden force behind Ericsson ICT Development Center's Agile Success
If your company is heading for Agile at Scale, it definitely requires Self Organization at Scale!
Organizations seeking to grow their Agile network are in dire need of empowering their workforce, and there is where Communities of Practice (CoP) take over.
During the past few years we have seen at Ericsson ICT Development Center Aachen Eurolab (Germany) several CoPs emerge and take over the responsibility for the evolution of Kaizen, T-Shape, DevOps, employees’ motivation… even operational aspects such as 5G research or security are moving forward with the support of CoPs.
CoPs provided the energy and drive we needed to uncover opportunities at every level in every kind of organizational unit and so pull the company forward.
We will present to you our practical experiences, how CoPs are born, the secret of their success, and how they managed to revolutionize the way a multinational giant of the telecommunications world growths within the new Ways of Working!

In the majority of organizations on their Agile journey, a gap grows between the self-organized teams and their Leadership. Leaders feel ineffective, lost and frustrated. They see the climate around them is changing, but they can’t follow the dynamics of the system. They have in their hands all the traditional tools which until recently had been working well, motivating people, directing them and giving teams guidance. Now those same tools are failing and getting only a fraction of their previous results. Join Zuzi as she takes you with her on a journey to become an effective Agile Leader. Form the right mix of Agile Leadership competencies, and gain confidence in your ability to drive Agile Organizations.

Shelley Kirkpatrick / Sarah Miller - Agile Government: Helping Agencies Sense and Respond in a VUCA Environment

20 Mins
Keynote
Executive
Even government organizations must quickly and effectively sense and respond to changes in their environment. Government agencies are updating their mission statements to include organizational agility.
To help government organizations understand organizational agility and identify tangible actions that they can take, we developed the Government Organizational Agility Assessment (GOAA).
We will describe the GOAA framework and assessment, including how we apply agility principles in delivering the results. We will share several stories that illustrate how the assessment participants interpreted their results and developed their own action items. We will summarize the impact that the GOAA has helped government organizations begin to change the way they carry out their work.

There has been lots of robust discussion around how Agile and Change can align within both communities. However, they already align so how do we maximize the benefits of this marriage? This talk will focus on how Agile and Change align so nicely and if you are considering “transforming” then how you leverage this marriage to ensure it lasts beyond the honeymoon period. We will discuss how Change and Agile don’t need to be retro fitted to work, with real life examples of how this has been applied in several different settings.
