We want to invite not only developers but, project managers, marketing professionals, sales people, and many others. Anyone with passion about their products!
This talk invites you to explore the possibilities beyond the rigid and predefined frameworks. Discover how using axioms, principles, and guidelines can guide you to develop an Agile framework that fits with the unique dynamics of your organization. While Agile frameworks offer a foundational 'safety net' with well-defined rules, processes, and established roles to mitigate organizational design pitfalls, the challenge lies in navigating the number of options to find the perfect match. Yes, the better frameworks leave a lot of room to fill in the details and tailor it to your situation. But then the questions is: How to fill in the details? In this session, we will guide you through the journey of abandoning the one-size-fits-all approach. By focusing on your specific context and employing a set of foundational axioms, principles, and guidelines, you can evolve a framework that not only addresses your unique challenges but also enhances your team's agility and effectiveness.

One of the biggest problems with product development is that a great deal of what is built does not reach the intended impact. The most obvious reason for this is that one rarely focuses on building a product / service that meets the business goals, benefits from the technology AND provides a desired user experience at the same time. Let’s take a look at a possible approach to solve this called Continuous Collaborative Discovery & Delivery, or just Holistic Product Discovery for short.
Martin Christensen is a transformational coach based in Stockholm, Sweden. He is coaching and mentoring individuals, teams and organisations in Product Discovery and Delivery to help increase effectiveness of the products and motivation of the people, by taking a holistic approach. He’s been preaching Agile since around the conception of the manifesto, but his current love is in the domain of Adult Development Theory at houseofevolution.se.
How do you get to the elusive agile mindset and avoid fake agile? The lean community has brought forward Toyota Kata to address similar challenges within Lean. In this session you'll be introduced to Toyota Kata and ideas for using Kata for Agile.
Amanda Colliander has worked as a leader within agile software development for many years and today works at Jeppesen a Boeing Company.

The legacy of the original lightweight and barely sufficient Agile ideas (XP and Scrum) has been impeded by the difficulties of applying them beyond a single team without losing the key principles and the promised gains.
Over the last decade, that challenge has led to a rise in heavy- weight methods, especially SAFe™, which has become a go-to place for "everything agile". It provides the user with a profound variety of specific tools and techniques for "scaling agile”.
Org Topologies™ is a framework-agnostic approach that builds upon whatever you already have implemented. It will allow you to further develop your Agile ecosystems witha vector toward an org design where business and technology work as one to create true business agility.
Attendees will learn the language of Org Topologies™. They will acquire clarity on which organization ecosystem they want to build and which behaviors they expect it to exhibit.

Eliminating unnecessary dependencies in organizations empowers individuals to decide and act for themselves. Doing so reduces waste, enhances productivity, and fosters a greater sense of ownership and responsibility. At the same time, when deciding how to deal with complex issues and unavoidable dependencies, involving stakeholders and others with a broad scope of knowledge and expertise is often essential for arriving at a good enough decision.
However, collaborative decision-making can be challenging. Disagreements are common, and failure to navigate them effectively can lead to ongoing conflict or people becoming unreasonable or disengaged.
Yet, any disagreement is a symptom of new information seeking emergence. Examining the reasons behind disputes will always reveal something valuable—whether a misunderstanding, a worthwhile improvement, or a way to avoid undesirable consequences or risks. In a world where we are simply not smart enough to navigate complexity alone, learning to harness the power of dissent and argumentation, being open to reason, and developing a nuanced point of view are crucial for building effective and resilient organizations and for dealing with many of the challenges we face in the world today.
This talk examines the unfortunate consequences of unresolved disagreements, why handling them can be so tricky, and lays out how to approach decision-making to bridge divides and maximize the chances of success.

Everyone agrees that it is important to collaborate in an organisation, within a team, between teams, and between individuals. But rarely, there are good advice on how to do it. This one-day-workshop aims at creating great collaborators out of the participants by supplying them with the missing pieces of the collaboration puzzle.
