November Agile Meetup: Discovering What Good Looks Like by Karl Scotland
Details
A great line up of events for November Agile Northants sponsored by Barclaycard.
Keynote Speaker: Karl Scotland
Topic: Discovering What Good Looks Like
This interactive session will demonstrate how three approaches (Agendashift, Cynefin and Clean Language), can be combined to help identify outcomes for change and choose appropriate change strategies. Agendashift is a values-based change management approach that seeks to make the agenda for change explicit. Cynefin is a systems model which describes different domains such that appropriate action can be taken. Clean Language is a model for coaching conversations. We will use Agendashift prompts within a Cynefin Four Points Contextualisation exercise to frame Clean Language conversations about what we would like to have happen.
