Memphis Agile - Visualizing the Why — Strategy and Roadmaps in Context


Details
We are please to welcome all the way from the UK, Craig Cockburn (Coburn), only distantly related to Agile Manifesto Alistair 🙂
The topic will be Visualizing the Why — Strategy and Roadmaps in Context
"Most strategy dialogues end up with executives talking at
cross-purposes because...nobody knows exactly what is meant by vision
and strategy, and no two people ever quite agree on which topics belong where" (Geoffrey Moore Escape Velocity)
In addition, all too often strategy is a static powerpoint that goes out
of date and gives little indication of the “why of movement”.
Join us and find out how to form an agile strategy and visualise it in a complex landscape.

11:45 - 12:30 Presentation
12:30-12:50 Q&A
