JOE's SESSION:
HERE IS HOW WE SCALED AGILE AT MY COMPANY
In this session I explain the TOOLS I have used and in some cases created, to scale Agile across a 200-person company.
In this session, you learn about tools, exit this session with the same tools I am using.
And you may decide to use some of them yourself, at YOUR company....
....Agile is about doing experiments to tailor and customize your implementation. One size (or one framework!) does not fit all. For Agile to actually work, you must tailor the practices to fit your business, your company, and your people. I have been at this now for over 5 years and I can tell you what works for me MAY OR MAY NOT work for you and your situation. That said, these are the practices I use, that have worked for me, in a situation with over 200 team members, stakeholders and executives:
Things that Ive seen work well when scaling scrum with 10+ teams.
Removing Dependencies
Component teams create dependencies while feature teams tend to reduce them. I explain how this actually works.
Product Ownership Teams
When you scale, you need the Product Owners thinking as a team. I tell you my story and offer some specific techniques for getting all yoru Product Owner aligned on shared understandings.
Scrum Master Teams
The Scrum Master job is a unique and challenging position. In this segment of the session, I explain how to develop a Scrum Master community of practice inside your organization.
Technical Teams
Architecture is important, and it needs to be prepared ahead of the teams, so they can actually complete their work. In this part I offer some ideas on how to make sure there is a balnce of planned and emergent technical architecture.
Organization-wide ceremonies
This one is the best practice I have found: periodically, you need and enterprise-wide "sync up" of at least one day. This needs to be a FACILITATED meeting. These org-wide, highly focused meeting build common knowledge. I'll explain what this is, and why it is essential to scaling Agile up to 10, 12, even 20++ teams.
This is a "from the trenches" session based on real experience scaling Agile at MASTERCAM in Tolland CT. You can expect some lively discussion as I go through the process of describing how to use these methods and what I learned as I implemented them, by experimenting, inside my company.

PARKING AND DIRECTIONS:
VENUE:
BLACK BEAR RESTAURANT- Downtown Hartford
187 Allyn Street, Hartford, CT 06103 860.524.8888 (Google MAP)
There is ample parking very close to the BLACK BEAR restaurant on Allyn Street.
Parking on Union Place (street where the train station is) is free parking after 6pm. Its a one way street so you can park on either side. Parking lots next to Black Bear and across the street are $6 to park until 4pm and I believe $10 after that.
NOTE: The parking lot guys are never out there and if you get a ticket its only through ProPark. Meaning: if you just throw the ticket out nothing will ever happen (Black Bear employees do it all the time) Keep in mind if there is something going on at the XL center the rate will go up and the parking guys will be out there.
See you there!!
