introduction
An Ericsson example of enterprise class Agility
Tue, 2008-02-19 12:24 — Jasper Goos, Alfo MelisseAgile in development teams has distinct benefits, but in large organizations a development team is a small part in the chain from customer request to customer delivery. Introducing Agile is a massive change in both our culture and our ways of working. The results are impressive: team motivation and product management satisfaction increased. We will present how to leverage on improvements in development in a large organization, the main choices we made, the resistance we had to overcome and how we made the changes stick.

Servant leadership, pair programming, transparency and self-organising teams are evil. They make people leave! Or don’t they?
Agile values and practices often cause enough pain for someone to leave the team or even the company. On the other hand they can retain or even attract people.
What can you do if you want people to stay or go?
After this session you can deal with labour turnover, or lack thereof. You will understand the systemic aspects of labour turnover by turning stories told by participants into diagrams of effects.
