AgilePDX User Group - Portland Metro

New technologies are disrupting everything. Work is happening faster than ever and quality is suffering. Everyone is focused on their own thing and we’re going in a hundred different directions!

Sound familiar? What responses have you seen to this reality? Are people falling back into what has been comfortable in the past - suggesting “stop the presses” manual reviews of work? Is your leadership requiring more documentation? More up-front planning?

We may be seeing a revival of the old “command and control” ways of working. Big up-front design, governance boards, and phase gate approvals coming back into vogue as a new cohort of workers encounter the challenges of too much work in progress, going too fast and breaking things, and managing dependencies across organizational silos.

As Agilists, how we can prepare for a resurgence of the old ways of working? What are the hard-won lessons that we don’t want to forget? What aspects of an Agile skillset (and mindset) are relevant today? Which ones aren’t?

The Agile PM Roundtable will convene a Lean Coffee to explore this theme. Lean Coffee puts you, the participant, in the driver’s seat to decide what we talk about and for how long. You’ll be able to contribute your ideas and learn from the ideas of others. Lean Coffee is unpredictable, surprising, and inspiring!
