New Ways of Working the Human Component

February 25, 2021 By Karl Smith

New Ways of Working Agile20Reflect Festival

The Agile20Reflect Festival will have created a great focus on the past, present and future of Agile in Feb 2021. Taking that impetus to the next level we want to think wider about how we can establish the principles of Agile and leverage them in organisational change and new ways of working.

PLANNED AGENDA
18:05 Introduction Karl Smith
18:10 Dr. Gail Ferreira
18:50 Q&A
19:00 Comfort Break
19:10 Dr. Stefanie Puckett
19:50 Q&A

This session is being set up to set out as an Agenda for Change that is focused on humans and how they can remain central to the Measurable Success in Organisations.

Karl Smith will introduce this event he has been a consultant and innovator in Business Transformation and Human Centred Design since 1989 and in Agile since 2004 involved in supporting both business and technology in the adoption of Customer Centricity and Agility. His recent focus has been on combining HCD and Agile in Enterprise Agile Portfolio management as an extension of SAFe.

“While there is now a huge body of work in regard to Agile Transformation much of it has been focused on ‘continuous flow’ and ‘transparent work’ leaving the areas of ‘how to work’ and ‘other people’ in many cases without guidance so they often create anti-patterns that ultimately undermine the Agile Transformations” Karl Smith

Building Trust – where do you start?

February 24, 2021 By Anurag Shrivastava

In any team, group or organisation aspiring to be agile, a vital ingredient to being successful is trust. It is a cornerstone to creating psychologically safe environments.

There is much said about needing trust, but where do you start with building trust?

In this interactive session you will learn a simple and powerful approach to start understanding and building trust within teams, organisations, and with others.

The session will be held via Zoom.us with interaction using breakout rooms, chat and miro.com. Where possible, participants are encouraged to have webcams turned on.

SPEAKER:

Stephen McAinsh is an agile coach and trainer with Calba. He strongly believes in focusing on people, influenced from his past experience as a personal development leader with charities Venture Scotland and Raleigh International, including four overseas expeditions.

He started his career in the 80s with HP who were pioneering new manufacturing techniques, many of which we term as agile today. He has led transformation programmes across Europe, Japan, and the US.

Stephen founded Calba in 2010 to focus on agile coaching and training in Scotland, and started Lean Agile Edinburgh in 2013.

Lean Agile Edinburgh – The castle’s are open again!

February 16, 2021 By Anurag Shrivastava

meetLean Agile Edinburgh is a monthly meet-up group to discuss and share all things lean and agile. All welcome to join! We’re delighted this month’s Lean Agile Edinburgh is taking place during the Agile20Reflect festival, and hope to welcome lots of new faces from around the world.

We are joined this month by Sofia Antonopoulou, the Product Owner for PICAMS at Historic Environment Scotland (HES).

She will tell the story of how HES used agile to support the huge effort of re-opening 300+ national monuments across Scotland during COVID – and here we go again with the second national lockdown…!

PICAMS (Properties in Care Asset Management System) is a bespoke application developed in-house to help HES manage its amazing estate of over 300 historic monuments across Scotland. The PICAMS team uses agile and user-centred approaches to solve problems and develop new digital capabilities for the organisation. From April until August all HES properties had to close in response to the COVID pandemic. Reopening them was a monumental effort under tight timescales, which PICAMS was asked to support. The talk will focus on how the PICAMS team reacted to meet the challenge.
