Lean and Agile Systems of Leadership
Richard engages the audience with insights on leadership through the lenses of lean and agile. He aims to create an understanding of how agile cultures thrive or fail with the *system* of leadership; and, help attendees understand, practically, what they can do about creating improvements.
Outline/Structure of the Others
Richard speaks on leadership through lean and agile lenses, engaging the audience with issues relevant to making progress today. He provides insights on:
- how rationalist thinking dominates management practices and destroys value,
- how to design conversations on value as a means of aligning behaviours and decision making
- how lean principles and viable systems thinking create agile organisations - viability is a pre-requisite for agility
- how an agile culture thrives or fails with the *system* of leadership - and what you can do about it.
Note: Richard comes with a bias for action before theory - but wishes to connect action with theory to build frameworks for tackling the toughest problems we face in our world today.
Learning Outcome
Learn the practices of good leadership
Develop practical actions to influence systemic improvement
See leadership though a new lens
See yourself with greater leadership potential
Target Audience
Leaders, aspiring leaders, people who are sceptical of leaders, people who just want to get good results.
Prerequisites for Attendees
Attendees should understand that technology and science is a contact sport. Solutions to the problems we face are rarely technological or economic. People and their agendas get in the way of resolving problems. Leadership is essential.
Bring an open mind ready to engage in systems thinking as it applies to getting the best from people.
Bring a desire to contribute to how we get things done in a better way.

LAST is Australia's cross-functional conference. Rather than retreat to our trade and talk among our peers-in practice we want LAST to be a place where people can learn about the holistic process of product and service development, or growing organisations and our own skills and careers.
This conference is also about learning and sharing from our colleagues. Over the years we have come to value the following things;
- Interactive sessions over presentations
- Specific tools and techniques over general frameworks
- Learning from mistakes and failures over sharing sanitised success stories
- Diversity of content over following industry best practices
- Evidence based approaches over novel ideas
That is, while there is value in the items on the right, we value the items on the left more.
