by Chris Sims
Agenda Not Set Yet
Room Not Assigned
Agile is a holistic approach to software development and the best way to learn about agile is to experience it. Over the course of this short workshop, we will engage the power of simulations and learning games to evoke and explore various aspects of the agile experience. Warning! This will be a participatory learning experience, without a PowerPoint safety net!
<br>
<br>
Areas we will explore will include:
<ul>
<li> * Iterative vs. traditional project lifecycle
<li> * Communication on a self-organizing agile team
<li> * The role of velocity in release planning
<li> * The power of inspect-and-adapt
<li> * The interplay between iterative delivery and risk
</ul>

Room Not Assigned
Impediments prevent you and your team from making progress or doing your best work. We will use a simple three step system to identify, analyze, and remove impediments so that your team can deliver maximum value. We will use games and simulations to explore the different types of impediments that arise for real development teams, and then apply the 3 step model overcome those impediments. Bring your impediments and be prepared to have fun with them!

Room Not Assigned
EXPERIENCE THE RHYTHM, FLOW AND MECHANICS OF SCRUM.
All Scrum projects share a set of events that occur on a regular cadence. If you've never worked on a Scrum team before, or if your Scrum project doesn't seem to have a smooth and natural flow, this session will let you experience and explore those things that all Scrum projects have in common.
This hands-on workshop is designed to let you experience the rhythm and flow of backlog grooming, sprint planning, development, sprint review and sprint retrospective through several sprints.
