In a highly competitive world, where start-up disruptors can spring up overnight and quickly dominate markets previously held by conventional operators, more than ever it is becoming necessary for all players to embrace innovation and experimentation in order to survive. In this topic we will explore some of the key factors to consider when innovating and embracing experimentation. In addition, we will do a practical walk through of some useful models that support these concepts.

    Product Road Mapping can be a challenge for those that are new to this and also for those that are experienced. Conventional product road mapping models have several limitations. We will explore how various Agile Product Road Mapping approaches and models can provide relevant information and direction to different stakeholder groups that are responsible for product development.

    Reginald de Silva / Ben Van Wees / Dirk Driessen - Driving Agile and Lean High Performance Delivery using Dual Track Development

    Intermediate

    Iterative just-in-time Agile delivery can often be a tricky business.

    Many teams struggle to establish a manageable delivery rhythm.

    Too often, teams are not Sprint-ready and experience a mad scramble just to deliver any sort of valuable outcomes.

    This is not only risky and wasteful but extremely stressful and demoralising.

    Highly popular 2-week Sprints often struggle to properly cater for activities such as architecture, User Experience, rapid prototyping, experimentation and infrastructure design to name a few.

    However, it does not need to be this way.

    We will explore the challenges and look at some ways that Dual Track Development methods and tools can be used to effectively deliver high performance outcomes.
