Hello All!

Hope you're all well and starting to enjoy the glimmer of sunshine the UK weather continues to tease us with!

We're back with our next instalment of Agile London, and this time we're hosted by Virgin Red on Wednesday 7th May, from 5.30pm. (With Pizza and Refreshments)

Multiple speakers on the evening, across 3 talks:

Talk 1: **Lucy Dixon** (Product Manager at Virgin), **Ellie Wallis** (Project Manager at Virgin) & **Paul Garratt** (Delivery Manager at Virgin) with "From Silos to Synergy: Uniting Product & Delivery for Success"

"Great products don’t just happen – they are the result of seamless collaboration between product and delivery teams."

Talk 2: **Erum Quddus** (Agile & Tech Change Storyteller) with "Is Agile Dead or Flatlining? Resuscitate It with Storytelling CPR"

"Agile isn’t dead, but it may be flatlining... To revive it, we suggest storytelling that energises. Lose the boring comms and updates on plan slippages and scope changes. Good leadership comms and powerful people success stories will cut through Agile fatigue and tackle resistance".

Talk 3: **Chris Harper** (Head of Programme Delivery, Tech & Data at Virgin) with "Agile Delivery for Contract Deliverables: What We Got Right and Wrong"

"Lessons from the trenches, especially if you have scars to share"

**Venue Address**: Whitfield Studios, 50A Charlotte St, London, W1T 2NS

Get signed up early as there's limited spaces!

Looking forward to seeing you there!
