Lightning Talks on the History and Origins of Agile and the Agile Community

February 4, 2021 By Sathpal Singh

Agile Origins

Agile20Reflect is delighted to be hosting this event which takes a look at the some of the origins of Agile and the personal stories and accounts of a number of wonderful Agilist. The festival is about people, after all!

In this session we will hear five Lightning Talks followed by a Q&A Panel discussion facilitated by your host.

It helps to remember that Agile was quite alien and remains so to many. It also means different things to different people and is now becoming more woven into the fabric of daily life.

The wonderful guest speakers share their stories and welcome you to explore their journey’s with us.

The session format:

Welcome and introductions

Lighting talks:
– Waterfall is just the tip of the Iceberg: Martin Hinselwood

– My Pilgrimage to Snowbird and Back Again: Portia Tung

– Stories from a reformed RUP Product Manager: Dave West

– Removing Bottlenecks starts with the Table of Need: Coleen Esposito

– #BeMoreCoyote – the 12 second guide to Communities of Practice: Lynsae Tulloch

Questions and Answers session with all speakers

Wrap up and close session

The Power of Invitation Whoever Comes are the Right People!

January 23, 2021 By Scott Seivwright

Agile20Reflect Festival Principle distributed evolving ecosystem yippee

One of the most important basic engagement techniques we uncovered in the creation of the Festival has been the “Power of Invitation”

The Agile20Reflect Festival was an open invite to any Agilists to share their passion. Deliberately distributing the events and allowing people to do what they want. There have only been a few events that were out with our scope. As we started on this, we really wanted to find out who was out there? Who was doing what? Who wanted to collaborate with who?

When we first launched the idea, several people doubted that the festival would happen. To help guide us. We have developed a Red – team to minimise risk but we have put a lot of reliance on self-organisation and the ability of the community to self-regulate. Things will go wrong, and we will learn from that, but we have faith in the community to support the festival.

I was blown away at the beginning of the journey when Daniel Mezick took me to see the great Harrison Owen. I was in awe of the great man. He gave me some great wisdom. Whoever comes are the right People, whatever happens is the only thing that could have happened, and It starts when it starts. Meeting Harrison Owen was one of the great moments of my life. I felt completely Humbled.

I am so happy so many people took up the invite! And this is truly Global and truly multilingual And I am looking forward to understanding what happen next. I am still humbled to think that the unpaid volunteers achieved such inclusion. This is the Biggest Agile thing in the world and its free for everyone, a great educational charitable undertaking.  I took up the invitation and i will be talking about three things, not theories or methods but human stuff. Imposter phenomenon holding you back, Gratitude and Agile Teams and Celebrating the super powers of Dyslexia and Agility. Three things that I coach in agile teams people in a lot. I followed my Passion.. I invite you to do the same.

And it all starts with the invitation to the Opening Ceremony. And a huge thank you to the volunteers. Agile20Reflect is a worthy celebration.

The Theme of the Opening Ceremony of the Agile20reflect Festival is “Ubuntu”

January 20, 2021 By Scott Seivwright

nelson Mandela as a n old man and a quote

Beautiful Humans!!

The festival is now 400 Events and still growing.. such a beautiful wellspring of knowledge from across all the continents. Well done – You are truly a Global Community!

We are pulling together the Agenda for the opening ceremony of The Agile20Reflect and we have chose the theme of Ubuntu….

In the next week we will explore Ubuntu and what Africa can teach the world about Human relationships. Our honoured first Nyansanii (wise person in Ghanan) will be the lovely Nana Bambara who will open our beautiful festival this year.

He defines the essence of Ubuntu as “The African Philosophy Ubuntu, a Bantu word, that defines what it means to be truly human. We affirm our humanity when we acknowledge that of others.” And we cannot think of a more fitting Human sentiment for opening up our global agile village in love, equality and connectedness.

I firmly believe that tThe Agile20Reflect festival is a true FESTIVAL of Humans celebrating our connectedness through each other!

I also like the idea of having the festival have a regional opening and this year we honour our brothers and sisters in Africa and welcome them to teach us more about being Agile Practitioners and our Humanness.

The Opening ceremony will have activities that bring us together and introduce us to new people from different experiences. The activities will be lead by different regions of the world. As we all work together to make something Beautiful! I wonder who will lead next year…

Scott Seivwright the Festival Chief Pirate!
