Who's the Assassin? - with Steve Williams

For our last meet-up before the summer, I am delighted that we are joined by Agile expert Steve Williams (https://expandingbox.co.uk/) who will take us on an experiential trip through some different system dynamics, their characteristics and approaches to acting effectively within them.

During the session, the group will act in a variety of ways that demonstrate the dynamics of different system types. We'll explore what influences and constrains those systems and discuss strategies for acting upon them in effective ways.

Please come along expecting to be involved, expecting to smile and expecting to learn something on the way through.
