Nawaz Butt - Cumulative flow diagrams (CFD) – Do’s and Don’ts
40 Mins
Talk
Intermediate
The CFD is growing in popularity in the agile community and has been called a successor to the Scrum burn-down chart. It’s a very effective tool as it provides a better visualization and typical information for critical decision making. Furthermore, CFD can help you improve your process by providing insights into issues and by identifying potential bottlenecks.
In this session, we’ll look at the different patterns, behaviors and examples of CFD, reviewing what each represents, and how can they be used in both a Kanban and Scrum context.

Advanced
The Agile Manifesto came out in 2001. It’s all about teams. And yet, HR processes still focus on individuals. A few years ago, companies in Europe started to ask questions on how Agile affects HR, specifically in performance management and reward & recognition. In the US, this exercise only started recently, even though there were a few voices raising and answering these questions early on. In this interactive talk, we dare you to open the HR pandora’s box and go on a tour with us as we share with you how we navigate the HR waters to increase your business agility. We hope you would be courageous enough to join us in driving this transition in your organisations.

Wayne Hetherington - Starting and Stopping your Mind
60 Mins
Talk
Intermediate
You’ve been working with a team for a while now and you’ve noticed that planning meetings always go overtime, we can never seem to agree on an estimate, design discussions always go down a technical rabbit hole, and the requirements are always too sparse.
On the other hand, the end of the sprint feels like a giant rush, there’s always unfinished work that bumps to the next sprint, and the customer is still complaining about not having their product yet. What is going on? Where are all these issues coming from?
It could be that your team has trouble starting, and trouble stopping. Join this session to learn about what happens in our minds as we think about our work and how to get started, and stopped - with some fun along the way.
