The document provides tips for becoming a more valuable member of an agile team. It recommends focusing on shared activities rather than signoffs, avoiding covering your own responsibilities, and becoming a "T-shaped" person by gaining expertise in different roles. Specifically, the key points are: 1) Collaborate on all activities like analysis, development, and testing rather than having separate roles and signoffs. 2) Help your colleagues whenever possible to gain new skills and build relationships rather than just completing your own tasks. 3) Develop deep expertise in your own role while also gaining knowledge of other roles to be more flexible and valuable to the team.

Agile leaders should avoid busywork, control, and being driven by the highest paid person's opinion. Busywork gives unnecessary tasks that don't add value. Control comes from a fear of leaders letting people do their jobs without micromanaging. The highest paid person's opinion can override others' ideas. Instead, leaders should hire competent people and respect their decisions, allow mistakes, and create conditions for people to do excellent work.More Related Content

Finding a specific car online can be a time-consuming task, especially when checking multiple dealer websites. A few years ago, I faced this exact problem while searching for a particular vehicle in New Zealand. The local classified platform, Trade Me (similar to eBay), wasnt yielding any results, so I expanded my search to second-hand dealer sitesonly to realise that periodically checking each one was going to be tedious. Thats when I noticed something interesting: many of these websites used the same platform to manage their inventories. Recognising this, I reverse-engineered the platforms structure and built an FME workspace that automated the search process for me. By integrating API calls and setting up periodic checks, I received real-time email alerts when matching cars were listed. In this presentation, Ill walk through how I used FME to save hours of manual searching by creating a custom car-finding automation system. While FME cant buy a car for youyetit can certainly help you find the one youre after!Artificial Intelligence in the Nonprofit Boardroom.pdf

Utilities and water companies play a key role in the creation of clean drinking water. The creation and maintenance of clean drinking water is becoming a critical problem due to pollution and pressure on the environment. A lot of data is necessary to create clean drinking water. For fieldworkers, two types of data are key: Asset data in an asset management system (EAM for example) and Geographic data in a GIS (ArcGIS Utility Network ). Keeping this type of data up to date and in sync is a challenge for many organizations, leading to duplicating data and creating a bulk of extra attributes and data to keep everything in sync. Using FME, it is possible to synchronize Enterprise Asset Management (EAM) data with the ArcGIS Utility Network in real time. Changes (creation, modification, deletion) in ArcGIS Pro are relayed to EAM via FME, and vice versa. This ensures continuous synchronization of both systems without daily bulk updates, minimizes risks, and seamlessly integrates with ArcGIS Utility Network services. This presentation focuses on the use of FME at a Dutch water company, to create a sync between the asset management and GIS.FIDO Seminar: Perspectives on Passkeys & Consumer Adoption.pptx

Smarter Aviation Data Management: Lessons from Swedavia Airports and SwecoSafe Software
油
Managing airport and airspace data is no small task, especially when youre expected to deliver it in AIXM format without spending a fortune on specialized tools. But what if there was a smarter, more affordable way?
Join us for a behind-the-scenes look at how Sweco partnered with Swedavia, the Swedish airport operator, to solve this challenge using FME and Esri.
Learn how they built automated workflows to manage periodic updates, merge airspace data, and support data extracts all while meeting strict government reporting requirements to the Civil Aviation Administration of Sweden.
Even better? Swedavia built custom services and applications that use the FME Flow REST API to trigger jobs and retrieve results streamlining tasks like securing the quality of new surveyor data, creating permdelta and baseline representations in the AIS schema, and generating AIXM extracts from their AIS data.
To conclude, FME expert Dean Hintz will walk through a GeoBorders reading workflow and highlight recent enhancements to FMEs AIXM (Aeronautical Information Exchange Model) processing and interpretation capabilities.
Discover how airports like Swedavia are harnessing the power of FME to simplify aviation data management, and how you can too.Key Requirements to Successfully Implement Generative AI in Edge DevicesOpt...

Gordon Cooper, Principal Product Manager at Synopsys, presents the Key Requirements to Successfully Implement Generative AI in Edge DevicesOptimized Mapping to the Enhanced NPX6 Neural Processing Unit IP tutorial at the May 2025 Embedded Vision Summit.
In this talk, Cooper discusses emerging trends in generative AI for edge devices and the key role of transformer-based neural networks. He reviews the distinct attributes of transformers, their advantages over conventional convolutional neural networks and how they enable generative AI.
Cooper then covers key requirements that must be met for neural processing units (NPU) to support transformers and generative AI in edge device applications. He uses transformer-based generative AI examples to illustrate the efficient mapping of these workloads onto the enhanced Synopsys ARC NPX NPU IP family.FIDO Seminar: Evolving Landscape of Post-Quantum Cryptography.pptx
