Many organisations are now looking to leverage their good experiences on software delivery and see similar benefits in other areas, typically support services such as finance, HR, legal, policy and knowledge management. This doesn’t always go right because they are different to the original software context most are familiar with.
This sessions talks through those differences, what can be done, what can’t be done and gives a few pointers on how to approach these teams to help them to be great.

Some words from Phil about himself:
I am Phil, enterprise agility transformation consultant and coach. I am one of those frustratingly relentless people who focuses on outcomes over outputs and a purpose centric approach to governance and process, rather than the introduction (often imposition) of inflexible, context
agnostic, frameworks. I believe in trying to operate as lean as possible, maximising value delivery with a minimum of output creation, overhead and fuss while remaining within legal/ systemic constraints. The objective is always to be better, not to deliver “Stuff”.
My experience is very much in the people / product spaces and it has been said I can helpfully communicate complex ideas quickly through metaphor, in well facilitated workshops/trainings with extremely loud shirts. I understand that the greatest driver of performance is engagement, rather than talent. To realise reliable delivery and see change programmes take hold and return the desired business returns it is a question of how to unlock the potential of the organisation; how to enable the employees to take ownership and enjoyment in the work so they will fight for success rather than frustrate delivery through apathy and fear.
