Adding value to Scrum projects as a Project Manager isn't easy. The common Scrum tenor is that the role "Project Manager" shouldn't exist, not in title and even less so in spirit. However, reality is that PMs or roles with traditional project management responsibilities are still more prevalent than agile servant-leader Scrum Masters or Kanban Flow Managers.
So, if you find yourself in a position of being an [Agile] Project Manager or in a similar role, join my session to learn how you can add value and foster an agile system at the same time with Kanban. You will leave the session with hands-on techniques that you can implement the very next day to improve the way you and your team works!

We were at the forefront of scaling Scrum and Agile. Past tense. This talk will explore lessons learnt, and how to increase the probability of success for your scaling efforts.

To be clear, this is a failure story. However, failure inevitably leads to learning. And I would very much like to share my learnings with the wider agile-community.

This talk is divided into the following sections:

• How we implemented Large Scale Scrum and were proud of it
• What we tried that went well and you should try, too
• Things we tried that didn't work - but may work for you
• What we tried that failed - and you shouldn't try either
• General advice on what to look for in scaling frameworks
