Drawing from our experience implementing Agile not only across cultural and physical boundaries with on/off shore blended teams, but within limitations that aren’t so obvious - we play an interactive game to learn about how people from diverse groups with different learning styles can gain knowledge and insight in cooperative and competitive settings. We will draw from this workshop’s experiential learning to feed a larger discussion about intercultural work groups, whether these groups are from different countries or different work disciplines.
So many things that contributed to my success as a Project Manager are exactly the same things that spell doom for an Agile team. Driving the team to outcomes. Coordinating the work of the team members. Using consensus as a hammer. If these sound remotely familiar to you, come explore what it means to be an Agile Coach. The session starts with a high-energy presentation and moves quickly to practice and activities. You’ll walk away with specific things you can use as well as deep thoughts to chew on.
