Ansgar Binninger: Scrum@Scale in the Engine Room of a Public Sector Project

In this session, we’ll take you behind the scenes of a major IT project within a German government agency. Instead of dry theory, we’ll share practical insights on how we applied Scrum@Scale principles such as “Teams of Teams,” “Cross-Team Coordination,” and the “Executive Action Team” in a complex, regulated environment.

We’ll show which Scrum patterns helped us build true end-to-end responsibility, where we encountered resistance, and how we used lightweight practices to reconcile bureaucracy and agility.

Get ready for honest insights: what went well, what we would do differently today, and why scaled agility in public administration doesn’t have to remain a utopia.

A session for everyone who wants to truly live agility in large organizations — beyond frameworks and slides.
