Great delivery isn’t just about tools and process — it’s about people, presence and how work actually gets done. Join Jonathan White from Aesop as he shares real insights from uplifting portfolio delivery in a global technology division.

In this session, we’ll explore why communication, collaboration and alignment often matter more than structure alone, and how thoughtfully configured tools (including Jira and Confluence) can support better conversations and clearer decisions. Along the way, Jonathan will weave in practical, human-centred practices that make work more intentional and outcomes more reliable.

Whether you’re a delivery lead, product manager, part of a cross-functional team, or just passionate about better ways of working, this session will give you actionable ideas and thoughtful perspectives to bring back to your own team.

Irina Mosina, Atlassian Community Champion

Hi there, I'm a veteran Atlassian event attendee and host.

As Platinum Solution Partners, since 2009, we have helped our customers become community leaders and provided all the support required to run successful events in Wellington, Christchurch, and Auckland.

I have built and led our Consultancy and Solutions practice and helped numerous organisations across many sectors and verticals to get the best out of their Atlassian stack.

I'm one of the first Authorised Training instructors awarded that badge in New Zealand, and we have consistently been selected as Training Partner for many years. I have trained hundreds of Atlassian users to become more confident, proficient and effective at their day jobs while using Jira, Confluence and other Atlassian tools.

I know that I have a massive amount of knowledge, experience and insights and I can't wait to share it with the wider Atlassian community and join forces with other Community Leaders out there!

Chrissy Clements, Atlassian Community Champion

Hi, I’m Chrissy!

I’ve spent over 20 years in IT, with the last 15 focused on service management. I’m an ITIL® Ambassador, Strategic Leader, Atlassian Champion, and someone who genuinely enjoys untangling complexity to help teams work smarter.

I’m all about making service delivery sustainable, practical, and actually useful, not just ticking boxes. Always happy to chat about JSM, product-led service thinking, or anything that helps people do their best work.

Also, a proud slave to my Samoyed, who keeps me humble and covered in fur.
