The move towards agility is an acceptance that we operate in an uncertain world. We can’t predict what will change in the future so we’ve evolved our practices toward flexibility, instead of attempting precognition. But have we evolved every practice? About Adam Howard: Adam Howard is the Test Practice Manager at Trade Me in Wellington, New Zealand. He is passionate about helping to evolve the way testing is perceived and performed. A regular speaker at Meetups and conferences in NZ and internationally, Adam also helps organise local WeTest Workshops and is chief design and layout editor for Testing Trapeze, a bi-monthly testing magazine. He also writes about testing on his blog and occasionally manages to be concise enough to tweet as @adammhoward.]]>

The mobile banking division of global fin-tech leader Fiserv has grown significantly to over 40 Agile delivery teams, 15 in NZ. However, waterfall approaches to planning, governance and release meant the teams were often starved of work, blocked from releasing and had no transparency to make this obvious. To improve flow and throughput, 18 months ago they kicked off an Agile transformation, led out of NZ. About Julie Lindenberg & David Morris: Julie is the Director for Business Analysis and User Experience at Fiserv. After earning her Bachelor of Planning, Julie worked in a variety of government roles, from customer-facing to IT. High points included leading high-profile projects, establishing frameworks of excellence and founding Business Analysis capability. Three years ago, Julie joined global financial technology company Fiserv as a Business Analyst Manager. Over that time, she has embraced ‘being Agile’ and servant leadership. Last year, she was appointed as a Director leading teams across seven sites in four countries. Shortly after, Julie was appointed Chair of the Transformation Leadership Team, leading the enterprise Agile transformation, impacting hundreds of staff members. In September, Julie was appointed the Director of User Experience. David is the Manager for Enterprise Agile Coaching at Fiserv and holds an MBA with the University of Auckland. He had 10 years’ experience in structured programming before discovering RAD and Scrum in the 1990’s. Over the last 20 years, he has worked as an Agile practitioner, Scrum Master and coach. As Principal Consultant at Assurity, David worked with prominent NZ companies on their Agile transformations. Last year he joined Fiserv to lead their Enterprise Agile Coaching team where he guides the leadership in operating their enterprise Agile framework and delivering on their transformation goals. David co-founded the Agile Alliance of NZ. His publications include Agile Project Management, Scrum in easy steps and The Paradox of Agile Transformation.]]>

How do you get the whole team involved when you’re so used to having a run-ahead team doing the discovery work for you?

At any one time, you can find her running a retro, working on stories or distracting the team with her out of tune singing. She is always willing to try anything out that will enable her team to deliver positive outcomes for customers. In her spare time, you will most likely find her at the library. Chetan Parbhu is a Senior Test Analyst at BNZ Digital. He is passionate about teams being empowered to build the right thing for the customer.

Agile adoption has been typically understood as a one-off organisational process involving a staged selection of Agile development practices. This does not account for the differences in the pace and effectiveness of individual teams transitioning to Agile development. About Rashina Hoda: Dr Rashina Hoda is an internationally renowned researcher and senior lecturer at the University of Auckland.

Kanban's principles require us to limit WIP in order to increase flow. Yet, traditional reporting across a portfolio often takes a siloed approach, with individual projects providing individual updates against common metrics like time, cost and scope delivered. Portfolio and Program Managers, therefore, don't have a view of the WIP of the 'system' or its impact on flow. About Suzanne Nottage: Suzanne has worked with leaders and teams in Europe, Asia, the US and Australasia, particularly on leveraging Lean|Agile to improve delivery at portfolio level. Her work has enabled teams to reduce WIP by 75% and failure demand by 40%, while increasing customer satisfaction (and team happiness).

About Russel Garlick: Starting as a lowly content migrater back in 1999, Russel has a fairly unique work history in that he's only worked at open source software companies for the past 17 years. Moving through different roles from web developer, UX designer, BA, then Project Manager, Scrum Master and now Agile Coach, he's always subscribed to the 'release early, release often' mantra. As Catalyst IT's Agile Advocate, he helps teams either transition to Agile or improve their Agile craft. A large part of hiss role is teaching and training which he does at work as an ICAgile Accredited Trainer and outside work as both a MTB Skills Coach for WORD and Joyride and Chairperson of Trail Fund NZ.

The relationship between a coach and manager is crucial to building effective teams. Managers often don’t have the slack or flexibility to help their teams reach high performance while coaches often lack context of the challenges that teams and leaders face on a day-to-day basis. About Martin Cronjé: Martin is a Software Development Manager at MYOB, New Zealand with more than 17 years’ experience in the IT industry. He's passionate about working with teams to create beautiful, well-crafted software. He previously worked in South Africa as the co-founder of nReality Systems, a software engineering consultancy firm where they coached teams ranging from hi-tech startups to large-scale enterprise IT. He has a long career as developer and lead on projects ranging from mobile, data analytics to high-volume, mission-critical systems in government and financial sectors. The most notable projects directly affected the South African economy and democracy.]]>

0 Modern Agile – What's It Good For? - Jacob Creech - AgileNZ 2017 /slideshow/jacob-creech-agilenz-2017/81958748 13-171113053057
The Agile Manifesto has been around since 2001 and, although the industry has rapidly developed, the principles still hold very true. However, there are lots of great new ideas that people have been experimenting with since the Manifesto was signed and, in this talk, attendees will hear about a few of these developments, focusing on the concept of Modern Agile. About Jacob Creech: Jacob started out in web development around 2000 and discovered that people constantly asked for things they didn't actually need, which led him on a journey of discovery that ended up in this thing called 'Agile'. He found himself in China helping develop virtual products for Second Life and then as the one and only non-Chinese person in a web development agency – good for language practice, not so much for delivering amazing work. After some time back in New Zealand on a usability product among other things, he returned to China to co-found an Agile consulting company, worked with a variety of large, impressive-sounding international companies at a scale that would make most New Zealand cities look tiny, and managed to stumble into a range of interesting opportunities all around Asia that kept him busy for the next few years. However, after some time, he got the itch to return to NZ and ended up at Assurity in late 2015 where he now heads up the Agile practice and works with government and non-government clients to deliver work in ever-improving ways. In his spare time, he (poorly) plays table tennis and enjoys naming babies after entrepreneurs.]]>
