Agile Humans Meetup #48 Agile as a Framework of the Mind

The name of the game is consistency, and we’ve been proudly playing it for years!

This is not a regular meetup; this is a celebration of four years of learning from each other, adapting to a fast-changing environment, and growing together in ways that have made us smarter, better, and stronger. No matter the uncertainties of today’s world, we hold up our promise to you.
For four years now, every first Thursday of the month, we’ve been giving you the opportunity to learn from the best agile specialists and experts. We are still dedicated to maintaining this rhythm, and have prepared something remarkable for this anniversary.

To thank you for being a part of our agile community, we decided to give you a special topic, and an exceptional guest. Joseph Pelrine is a Freud of Agile Coaching, an Agile Psychologist, and someone who truly understands humans, and the soul of agile methodology. Agile approach is not just a management strategy, nor a business framework; it is a framework of the mind. To transform your business, first you have to transform yourself. Joseph Pelrine is someone who can help us improve ourselves, and optimise our self-organisation in complex systems, so that the improvement is visible in the results of our business.

• Have you recognised any patterns in your ways of working?
• Are you an Agile Horder?
• What does the Agile Manifesto mean to you?
• Is there an unhealthy aspect to psychological safety?

Think about these questions, and prepare yourself for discovering the connection between psychology and agile coaching, the true meaning behind the Agile Manifesto, and the limits of psychological safety. Our guest is well known for his different approach to agile topics, and on this unique occasion he is going to speak with our dear Jasmina Nikolić, so you’re in for a treat!

In the world of unpredictability you can’t be sure of many things, but you can rely on us to keep bringing you the best from agile culture every month. Thank you for four years of loyalty, mutual learning, laughter, playfulness, challenging questions, great conclusions, and dedication. See you online on August 4th from 6:30 p.m.

ABOUT SPEAKER

A quiet and reserved researcher and practitioner, Joseph Pelrine is considered by cognoscenti to be one of the pioneers and top experts on Agile methods. He has spent over 25 years defining and refining processes to help some of the world’s most well-known companies improve their ability to satisfy the needs of their customers. As a psychologist, his focus on people and his experience in applying leading-edge techniques from social complexity and psychology to process optimization goes far beyond the domain of software development, and extends to the whole organisation. Although Joseph Pelrine often works as a consultant or interim manager, his preference is passing his knowledge on by counselling and advising individuals and organisations, often in the role of a CTO/CIO/CDO “whisperer”. He conducts research in novel applications of psychology to agile processes, and is also a PhD researcher in psychology and psycholinguistics.
