The Human side of Agile.. How to enable “Individuals & Interactions” through Deep Democracy

By

For a lot of agilists the first and most resonant value of the Agile Manifesto is “Individuals & Intercations over Processes & Tools”. This also captures in a nutshell the unique challenge.. at their best people collaborating can create magic. But at their worst.. its quite another story.

In the early 90s just after the fall of Apartheid in South Africa, there emerged a powerful approach to collaboration called “Deep Democracy”. The amazing part was that it was a way of working that made it possible for two groups of people divided by generations of dislike, hatred and violence to come together and produce effective collaboration.

Join this this mini-workshop to learn about the power of “Deep Democracy” and explore exciting ways of enabling “individuals and interactions” to happen.

The workshop is led by two coaches & facilitators who themselves are connecting and collaborating across cultures – Anja van Beek from South Africa & Helgi Gudmundsson from Iceland.

When the 17 writers of the original Agile Manifesto came together 20 years ago to resolve a common problem – little did they know they were starting a movement that would re-ignite humanity.

Today I am proud to be an Agilist that continues to grow in the right mindset that Agile promotes. I am particularly grateful for the amazing Agile communities around the world doing great things to further push the agenda for Agility for Humanity.

Online-Workshop: Das Starter-Kit für Business Agility

By

Vorbei ist die Zeit, wo „Agile“ ein reines IT-Thema war. Agilität erobert die Businesswelt. Tauchen Sie mit uns in neue agile Denkweisen ein, erleben Sie moderne Wege der Zusammenarbeit und lernen Sie, welche praktischen Schritte nötig sind, um sie zu nutzen.

Zusammenarbeit, Kundenfokus und Autonomie sind die Grundlage eines modernen Unternehmens, die durch Agilität gestützt werden. Sie ermöglicht schnellere Entwicklung von Lösungen und Produkten, rasche Reaktion auf Marktanforderungen, verstärkte Mitarbeiterbindung und höhere Kundenzufriedenheit. Die Ideen eines agilen Ansatzes lassen sich in allen Unternehmensbereichen anwenden, allerdings erfordern sie einen Mentalitätswandel über die IT hinaus. Dadurch können Organisationen in einem sich stetig verändernden Umfeld langfristig bestehen und wachsen. In diesem interaktiven Workshop setzen wir mit Ihnen den Startpunkt:

– Was bedeutet es, agil zu sein und was bringt es?
– Wie hat sich Agilität in den letzten 20 Jahren verändert?
– Welche agilen Denkmodelle gibt es?
– Wie kann agiles Arbeiten in allen Geschäftsbereichen effektiv eingesetzt werden?
– Wo und wie starte ich die Veränderung?

Wer sollte teilnehmen?
MitarbeiterInnen aus IT und Non-IT Bereichen (HR, Marketing, Sales, Finance, etc.), auf jeder Ebene, in jeder Rolle, die agile Fähigkeiten aufbauen sowie neue Zusammenarbeitsmodelle kennenlernen wollen sowie jene, die durch den Marktdruck Bedarf an Veränderung in ihrer Organisation sehen.
Agile Vorkenntnisse sind nicht erforderlich.

Dieser kostenlose Workshop ist Ihre Initialzündung für mehr Innovation. Melden Sie sich gleich an und sichern Sie sich konkrete Action-Points für Teamentwicklung und Organisationsgestaltung im heutigen Zeitalter der Agilität.

Lean Coffee is structured, but agenda-less meeting. Participants gather and prioritize, collaborate, follow-up, build an agenda, and begin talking. Conversations are directed and productive because the agenda for the meeting was democratically generated. Lean Coffee is a powerful meeting facilitation technique that can be used in coffee shops, conferences, open space, Scrum events or simply replace existing corporate meeting formats. Lean Coffee is easy to learn, empowers participants and increases engagement. It is also fun as it allows for a free flow of discussions!
