Here is an overview of the sessions you can expect so far (in no particular order).
Are software engineers headed for the end of coding, or will they have more legacy mess to solve than ever? Is AI eliminating gig work or enhancing freelance opportunities for everyone? Will algorithmic bosses enslave human workers or free them from traditional management? Is AGI already here or can we wait a while longer? And what role will humans have in the future of work?
This session unpacks highlights from the new book Human Robot Agent so that we can explore dilemmas, navigate complexity, and harness AI to thrive in a socio-technological and wicked world.
In a time where we want to drive product success and organizational growth, the well-being and happiness of Agile teams cannot be understated. "Fostering happiness in Agile Teams" is an interactive session that delves into the neuroscientific underpinnings of happiness in teams and provides practical strategies for Agile practitioners to create a thriving team environment.
This engaging talk will explore how the four key happiness chemicals (Endorphins, Dopamine, Serotonin, and Oxytocin) are crucial in shaping team dynamics, morale, and productivity. Through an interactive format, participants will be involved in activities that share knowledge on these chemicals and empower the attendees to apply these insights within their teams.
In this session we explore and discuss predictable uncertainty in complex environments based on a road metaphor and the common phenomenon of traffic congestion. And find out how seemingly simple solutions can have an enormous impact.
A high-energy, interactive session demonstrating how the combination of Obeya visual management and AI tools creates explosive opportunities to revitalize Agile practices that critics have wrongly declared "dead" for years.
“This meeting was boring”
“We wasted our time with this Kumbaya nonsense”
“I need time to prepare and analyze on my own.”
This kind of feedback is hard to swallow but it proves one thing as a facilitator: there are times when you just don’t quite nail it with your audience. What if it simply depends on your audience’s personality? What if, as facilitators, we have a perception bias and tend to design workshops targeting our own personality type? What if we could just acknowledge it and design more inclusive workshops for both introverts and extraverts that combine the best of both worlds? Wouldn’t that be awesome?
In this workshop, Els & Erik will introduce you to the I-Facilitate method. Together, we’ll give you tools & tactics to create workshops that cater to both introverts and extroverts, recognizing the need for engaging interventions while respecting the introspective moments people need. We’ll look at how we can facilitate an environment where everyone feels safe enough to step up and stay out of our cozy spots without going into full-on panic mode. It’s all about pushing a bit beyond the comfort zone while keeping it safer for everybody.
