SUMMARY:All Things Agile Gwinnett (ATAG)
DESCRIPTION:The November meetup will be hosted by Georgia Gwinnett College and our partner ITEC professors. We would like to expose the students to an Agile meetup with business professionals and create a real world learning opportunity for them. \nWe will use the Lean Coffee (http://leancoffee.org/) format for our topics discussion. Lean Coffee is a structured\, but agenda-less meeting. Participants will gather\, build an agenda (backlog of topics)\, and begin the discussion. Conversations are directed and productive because the agenda for the meeting is democratically generated. \nWe will close the meetup with a “Rapid Retrospective” (5 minutes) covering what was beneficial to the group and what could be enhanced in future ATAG meetups. \nThe total event time is scheduled for ~1.5 hrs. \nPlease arrive a few minutes early to get parked and make your way into the building. Visitor parking is available in the B parking lot or 3000 parking lot. Both lots are a short 5 minute walk to the W building. We are working on more convenient options and will update this meetup along with the room number. \nWe look forward to seeing you there! \nWalt and Derwin

SUMMARY:Intent-based Leadership Information Session
DESCRIPTION:Sign up to learn more about participation in a six week intent-based leadership intensive. Using a combination of the online course and peer sessions we’ll learn how to lead without intimidation or fear. \nCohort participation is free and will last six weeks in Q1 2020 at a centrally selected location and agreed schedule based on attendee interest. Depending on interest level we may have multiple groups meeting to keep group size to 7-10 people per cohort. \nSeparate purchase of David Marquet’s course for $200 is suggested to participate — no economic benefit goes to any of us. \nhttp://davidmarquet-com.3dcartstores.com/Create-Leaders-at-Every-Level-Intent-Based-Leadership-Online-Course_p_24.html \nThe next cohort starts in January 2020.

SUMMARY:Business Agility Atlanta October meetup
DESCRIPTION:The Business Agility Atlanta meetup is an open\, interactive and collaborative discussion of Business Agility approaches across the enterprise including HR\, Marketing\, Finance\, Support\, Sales\, Recruiting\, Operations\, etc. Come join the conversation at one of our monthly meetups\, share your experiences and collaborate with others actively pursuing ways to be more responsive and effective in all parts of the enterprise. \nOur October meetup will be led by Bob Woods from MATRIX. Bob will discuss how successful agility requires organizations to change their talent acquisition & retention strategies. A great topic that we all need to embrace! \nOverview: Wait! Stop! Don’t hire that highly talented person with the great resume\, numerous certifications and years of valuable experience! Believe it or not\, that person could undermine your cultural agility. \nOne of the biggest mistakes companies make in trying to scale the mountain we call organizational cultural change is bringing in the wrong people to help support that change. Too often we remain stuck in old hiring practices based on keyword searches\, years of experience or quantity of certificates. While valuable to know\, this does not mean\, though\, that they will fit what you are trying to do within the organization. You may even be creating a cancerous situation that is causing leadership to question whether or not Agile methods were the right way to go at all! \nRobert Woods\, Sr Consultant at MATRIX\, will be outlining the absolutely critical adjustments required to how we look for people\, hire and why they are so impactful to the success of any cultural support. These adjustments impact areas ranging from Product Development to Change Management\, Business and IT alignment\, Team Building\, Leadership and Facilitation on up to Executive buy-in. Learn how to watch\, engage\, hire and retain the people you need before its too late! \nAudience: Team leads\, managers\, directors and above throughout the organization. Come join the discussion and let’s talk about ways to get the right people on-board in our own organizations to increase our responsiveness and effectiveness. \nParking is free at the venue. Food and mingle starts at 5:30\, discussion starts at 6:00. \nNote: The October meetup at the new MATRIX headquarters (400 Perimeter Terrace\, Suite 300\, Atlanta\, GA 30346).

SUMMARY:Game without Thrones Workshop - An overview of xScale
DESCRIPTION:Space is limited to the first 60 attendees\, so please only sign up if you’re committed to come. We expect to have a waiting list. \nDue to over an overwhelming wait list the first time\, Agile ATL is thrilled to host an XSCALE Game Without Thrones event. GWOT is one of the most exciting and innovative Agile practice patterns being taught today. It shows how to de-scale decision making while maintaining cross-team alignment — but without resorting to command and control – by instead using practices originating with the Iroquois Nations. \nJeremy Pullen\, John Badgley and Rob (Gordo) Gordick will lead an immersive hands-on de-scaling Lego workshop with no masters\, no owners\, no hierarchies\, and no command and control. This is pure self-organization across multiple teams and streams driven directly by business constraints and quantitative metrics. \n= = = = = = = = = = = = =About XSCALE= = = = = = = = = = = = =XSCALE Alliance is the Linux of the agile world\, an open learning ecosystem of prominent independent coaches and consultancies evolving an open-content alternative to the “Agile Industrial Complex”. This alternative takes the form of a principled pattern language\, not a framework\, for self-directing portfolios of self-managing streams of self-organizing teams – a “de-scaled” organization in which all feedback loops are tight\, all meetings are small\, and all decision-making is face-to-face. \nhttp://www.xscalealliance.org \n= = = = = = = = = = = = =Agenda= = = = = = = = = = = = =6:00pm to 6:30pm – Pizza and Networking6:30pm to 8:30 pm – Game Without Thrones8:30pm to 9:00pm – Debrief \n= = = = = = = = = = = = =About your facilitators= = = = = = = = = = = = = \nJeremy Pullen loves the intersection of people\, process\, and technology. In addition to his 23+ years building large scale software systems\, he is also an XSCALE Coach and an Accredited Kanban Trainer. Jeremy is a principal consultant with Polodis\, a DevSecOps transformation consulting firm in Atlanta\, GA. You can follow him on Twitter @jeremypullen. \nJohn Badgley is a Business Agility Lead\, Enterprise and Portfolio Coach\, XSCALE Lead\, Creator of G5: Enabling Real Change for People and Companies\, Personal and Career Agility Coach\, and creator of Agile Fight Club. You can learn more about him at http://www.kudzooo.com/portfolio.htm.

SUMMARY:Agile Lunch Bunch @AgileThought (400/Abernathy)
DESCRIPTION:Agenda begins with optional Lightning Talk “Openers” before moving into Lean Coffee format. If you want to propose a Lightning Talk\, feel go with the standard Agile Alliance conference format of 3 min slideless\, 5 slides in 5 min\, or 7 min Pecha Kucha (20 slides\, 20 sec). \nThen we’ll shift to an adapted Lean Coffee format (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zhG-A-kRPAU) so come load our backlog with your interests\, questions\, and ideas. We’ve had great feedback on how the ensuing dialogue will really get a feel for the “pulse” of the Atlanta Agile community. Consistently strong engagement and interactions have sparked our learning. \nLunch will be provided! Please keep the input on how to best optimize and evolve the dialogue! \nSee you all there! \nRob Phillips \n(678) 557-9522

SUMMARY:Business Agility Atlanta September meetup
DESCRIPTION:** Topic/Speaker change…again. Great news! We have three great speakers lined up for the Fall\, but they have had to shuffle their schedules due to other commitments. Sorry for the topic changes. \nNote: The September meetup at the new MATRIX headquarters (400 Perimeter Terrace\, Suite 300\, Atlanta\, GA 30346). \nThe Business Agility Atlanta meetup is an open\, interactive and collaborative discussion of Business Agility approaches across the enterprise including HR\, Marketing\, Finance\, Support\, Sales\, Recruiting\, Operations\, etc. Come join the conversation at one of our monthly meetups\, share your experiences and collaborate with others actively pursuing ways to be more responsive and effective in all parts of the enterprise. \nOur September meetup will be led by Joshua Jack and Tony Shawver from MATRIX. Josh & Tony will discuss how agility in construction can change how we do work in our respective functions. \nOverview: In this session\, we take lessons from how construction and architecture are applying business agility practices and what other verticals and business units can gain from these practices. From planning to actual construction to changes in local code enforcement\, agility in one of the traditionally most waterfall verticals is shifting how we think. \nAudience: Team leads\, managers\, directors and above throughout the organization. Come join the discussion and let’s talk about ways to get the right people on-board in our own organizations to increase our responsiveness and effectiveness. \nParking is free at the venue. Food and mingle starts at 5:30\, discussion starts at 6:00.

SUMMARY:Game without Thrones Workshop - An overview of xScale
DESCRIPTION:For the first time in Atlanta\, we are thrilled to host an XSCALE Game Without Thrones event. GWOT is one of the most exciting and innovative Agile practice patterns being taught today. It shows how to de-scale decision making while maintaining cross-team alignment — but without resorting to command and control – by instead using practices originating with the Iroquois Nations. \nJeremy Pullen and John Badgley will lead an immersive hands-on de-scaling Lego workshop with no masters\, no owners\, no hierarchies\, and no command and control. This is pure self-organization across multiple teams and streams driven directly by business constraints and quantitative metrics. \nSpace is limited to the first 20 attendees\, so please only sign up if you’re committed to come. We expect to have a waiting list. \n= = = = = = = = = = = = =About XSCALE= = = = = = = = = = = = =XSCALE Alliance is the Linux of the agile world\, an open learning ecosystem of prominent independent coaches and consultancies evolving an open-content alternative to the “Agile Industrial Complex”. This alternative takes the form of a principled pattern language\, not a framework\, for self-directing portfolios of self-managing streams of self-organizing teams – a “de-scaled” organization in which all feedback loops are tight\, all meetings are small\, and all decision-making is face-to-face. \nhttp://www.xscalealliance.org \n= = = = = = = = = = = = =Agenda= = = = = = = = = = = = =6:00pm to 6:30pm – Pizza and Networking6:30pm to 8:30 pm – Game Without Thrones8:30pm to 9:00pm – Debrief \n= = = = = = = = = = = = =About your facilitators= = = = = = = = = = = = = \nJeremy Pullen loves the intersection of people\, process\, and technology. In addition to his 23+ years building large scale software systems\, he is also an XSCALE Coach and an Accredited Kanban Trainer.

SUMMARY:Death to "it depends" Leadership! w/ Lawrence Henderson
DESCRIPTION:How many of us have been in a business or project launch meeting and details of what needs to be done start to be thrown around and then the “leader” in the room gets asked a question\, and the gut-wrenching response comes back\, “Well\, It depends.” Well\, thank you “Captain obvious!” is what we think\, well\, maybe just me. How many projects or decisions have been stalled by “It depends”? If we as leaders know so much about the path to improved organizational performance\, why is it so difficult to get there? \nThis interactive session will incorporate small group and large group think-tank discussions on how we can close the gap between Knowing versus Doing. We will begin the work to put to death the defacto “It Depends” and build a healthy living environment for decision-making and action-taking. \nTakeaways: \nA model to get conversations started and actual ideas on the tablePersonal identification of what role you play as a team memberChallenge to be an actual Change Agent at your organization \nProfessional Bio:Lawrence Henderson has been a comfort disrupting Certified Leadership & Organizational development Coach\, Trainer\, and Speaker for over 15 years\, working to deliver social/culturally aware programs that shift the fabric of an organization. Lawrence started his career as an impactful leader through service to his country in the U.S. Army. Now as the Founder and Senior Learning Partner of Business Operational Support Services\, LLC\, he stands in a position to help people connect to the best versions of themselves. He has an unquenchable desire to help bridge the gap for others in their pursuit of God’s purpose in their lives by speaking on the TED stage\, facilitating workshops\, seminars\, and small groups that provide people with the tools to lead today and well into the future. As an authentic voice to live a life of humility\, openness\, and transparency\, Lawrence models the way as a volunteer in several nonprofits and professional organizations throughout the Greater Atlanta area to be the change needed in and around the community. \nSome interest includes jumping on his 2007 Harley Davidson Fatboy while creating memories with his wife Gepre of over 10 years\, and their family pet Chili.

SUMMARY:Presenter Series: Assumptions and Ambiguity be Damned.
DESCRIPTION:This a continuation of our Presenter Series. The presenter series is onsite only and seeks to bring in leading speakers to share their experiences in order to provoke new ideas and challenge existing paradigms within the agile space. \nJoin us as Dennis Stevens presents on “Assumptions and Ambiguity be Damned. Develop a Strategy to Embrace Change.”. \nDescription:Markets are changing faster than typical strategic planning cycles can support. Additionally\, digital strategies are increasing interdependencies and exacerbating the strain on execution. Strategic planning often falls short because it’s not as fluid as it needs to be. \nOne thing we must consider\, is that there are—typically— a lot of assumptions being made about markets as well as the organization’s capacity to execute. Those assumptions often miss the mark when attempting to meet the ever-changing needs and expectations of shareholders and customers. \nAgile provides the opportunity to create the requisite adaptability to validate and adapt to as we understand our ability to deliver and the realizable value of our strategies. \nMore about Dennis Stevens:For over 25 years\, Dennis Stevens has been helping organizations leverage technology to improve their business performance. As Chief Methodologist and Co-Founder of LeadingAgile\, he is focused on the pragmatic application of Lean and Agile thinking to integrate Project Management\, Business Analysis\, and Software Engineering in a way that enables scaling Agile to the Enterprise. \nDennis was a significant contributor to Microsoft’s Business Architecture methodology\, was the Deputy Project Manager for PMI’s OPM3 Second Edition\, and served on both the IIBA and PMI steering committees figure out how to employ agile and lean for their constituents. \nHe was published in the June 2008 Harvard Business Review article “The Next Revolution in Productivity” (https://hbr.org/2008/06/the-next-revolution-in-productivity). Dennis is co-author of the Cutter Consortium Executive Report “Rethinking the Agile Enterprise” discussing incremental strategies to Enterprise Agile adoption. He is recognized as a contributor to Ric Merrifield’s “Re-Th!nk: A Business Manifesto for Cutting Costs and Boosting Innovation” and David J. Anderson’s “Kanban: Successful Evolutionary Change for Your Technology Business.”

This session is intended to be an interactive exploration of the factors that should be explored when building the case for a Business Agility Transformation effort. Topics to include:• Establishing a clear baseline for team-level Agility maturity• Defining a quantitative connection between maturity and value delivery• Exploring the increased value delivery associated with increased team maturity• Discussing the average team-level costs of a Business Agility transformation• Deriving a clear (and compelling) ROI view of a cohesive Business Agility transformation \nThe stakes are high\, and the benefits are clear. Come join the discussion and let’s explore ways to frame the benefits of Business Agility in a way that can help stakeholders clearly articulate the full ROI impacts of their efforts and get the critical funding needed to realize Business Agility across the Enterprise! \nAudience: executives\, digital transformation leaders\, agile leaders\, business and technical leadership\, designers\, product leadership\, marketing\, sales\, HR\, and all other do’ers. \nParking is free at the venue and the meetup is on the 5th floor (suite 500).
