Do you remember your team's first engagement with agile adoption? Did you or others on your team hold strong opinions on specific topics? Were meetings derailed by discussions about which is the right way to do agile? Perhaps as a scrum master or coach, you face stormy meetings with many debates. If so, let's talk about chartering:
Steve Teske presets a chartering framework for sequentially identifying and resolving tough issues for teams embarking on lean or agile implementations. Utilizing the chartering framework a scrum master, team lead or coach creates a facilitation plan which includes activities and educational opportunities relevant to a specific team. Through the course of facilitated chartering the team discovers two fundamental things. First they cooperative discover common definitions of agile words and processes. Second, they build a deep understanding of their intra-team commitments which provides the foundation for trust and accountability.

Beginner
Product discovery is a process that helps us make sure we're not just creating products that are usable, but also useful. The notion of requirements and design as a sequential, predictable and scheduled phase in a product development process is so ingrained in our industry that it’s often one of the most difficult habits for product organizations to break. Product organizations need to come to terms with the fact that the product invention process is fundamentally a creative process. It is more art than science. The session will present an opportunity to learn techniques in interactive, hands-on exercises.###Presentation slides available at: https://www.slideshare.net/supermanjit/the-art-of- discovering-product-features- presented-at-agiledc-2017oct -

How To Fail With Agile

Talk
Beginner
Doing Agile is more than just the summation of all the roles, ceremonies and artifacts of a method like Scrum. Agile only works when one has the courage to really realize the concepts, values and principles at its core. The secret is in "being" Agile in thinking so that it manifests in the "doing."
The session will present common patterns observed in organizations and teams thinking they are "doing" Agile, whereas their practices are very "Fr-agile". These patterns are signs of Agile being practiced in an unhealthy way leading to complete failure or a less-than-expected outcome with unfulfilled expectations.
The presentation is for executives and senior managers responsible for supporting and leading agile transformation in their organizations. In addition, both experienced Agile practitioners and those who have just started or are planning to start their agile adoption journey will find this session helpful in learning about common anti-Agile patterns.
