Expert Talks Lisbon

Our second Expert Talks event in Lisbon, will consist of two lightning talks:

Common Communication Failures when Implementing Lean and Kanban Benjamin Mitchell, Partner, Equal Experts

When learning and implementing Lean and Kanban ideas it's scarily easy to communicate poorly and block the improvements you could make.

Drawing on examples of common communication failures, many based on personal experience, this talk will highlight common communication problems.

These can include assuming that visible data is all that is necessary, forgetting the importance of feelings and relationships, and the challenges of “gaining consensus” when you’re sure your idea is the obvious way forward!

Benjamin will also share models and techniques that can increase your ability to work with others to implement improved processes and achieve better results faster.

From Traditional to Reactive Web ApplicationsMiguel Duarte, Engineer, Equal Experts

Miguel will discuss how to transform a traditional web application into a soft real-time reactive application, using RxJava with WebSockets.

We’re keen to share experiences among the Portuguese development community, so if you’re an experienced developer, do join us! Attendance is free and food and drink will be provided.
