Description:  Deliver Quality Customer Value Faster - Agile Accelerator

Business competition is global and customers have many choices. How do you respond to customer demands or market change as either an existing or startup company? The answer according to Forbes magazine is people working collaboratively in an agile environment with the ability to respond to change. This workshop style presentation requires your participation so come ready to actively engage to learn something new or expand on existing experiences. Agile Principle #1: Our highest priority is to satisfy the customer through early and continuous delivery of valuable products or services (software). Learning Objectives:
  • Discover why lean thinking and agile practices deliver 4X more value
  • Discern the use of working agreements to create psychological safety boundaries
