More with LeSS - Descaling over Scaling With Rickard Jones

In the first half of 2026 we are taking it back to the basics! We have a whole series planned for those that want a refresher or just getting started.

In April we are pleased to be joined by Rickard Jones to talk all about LeSS.

About the Session
Most organisations approach scaling by adding more: more Product Owners, more specialised roles, more complex tooling, and more coordination meetings.
But as the core of Large-Scale Scrum (LeSS) states: "LeSS is not about scaling a framework — it's about redesigning your organization to build better products, faster, and with fewer obstacles."

Join us for an evening with Rickard Jones as we dive into the "More with LeSS" mindset.
We will explore why the most effective way to scale Scrum is actually to descale the organisation, eliminating dependencies, removing the complexity, silos, and "muck" that prevent teams from delivering real customer value.
What We’ll Explore:

• Descaling over Scaling: Why adding "Agile versions" of traditional hierarchies often leads to less agility.
• The Power of One: How one Product Owner and one Product Backlog can drive an entire multi-team organisation toward a single outcome.
• Structural Change: Why descaling organisational design is key to agility and success.

This session is for anyone tired of "Agile-in-name-only" transformations and looking for a pragmatic, evidence-based approach to building high-performing, lean organisations.
