SUMMARY:All Things Agile Gwinnett (ATAG)
DESCRIPTION:The May meetup agenda will start off with lunch sponsored by Genuent. Once everyone has had a chance to get settled\, we will kickoff the meetup with brief individual introductions (10 secs each). \nThe event will then move to our guest speaker\, Daniel Mezick (http://newtechusa.net/danielmezick/) who be presenting via Zoom video. Daniel is an author\, consultant\, expert on enterprise business agility and extending adaptive agile culture beyond software. He is a frequent keynote speaker on self-management and business agility at industry conferences worldwide. For the ATAG May meetup he will covering the topic of his latest book Inviting Leadership (https://www.amazon.com/Inviting-Leadership-Invitation-Based-ChangeTM-World/dp/0984875352) that he and Mark Sheffield have co-authored. \nThe second half of the event we will use the Lean Coffee (http://leancoffee.org/) format. 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 because attendees will need to sign in at the front desk. Parking is available in front of the building and behind the building. Please park on the M3 side since the other side of the lot is owned by SAGE. \nWe look forward to seeing you there! \nWalt and Derwin

SUMMARY:Workshop: Having fun generating Synthetic Data for test
DESCRIPTION:New regulations and increasing awareness of the importance of protecting data has caused companies to lock down data systems. Not having high-quality data leads to a variety of issues including making it more difficult to find bugs. In this workshop\, we will look at a variety of ways to populate your dev/staging environments with high-quality synthetic data that is similar to your production data. \nWe will accomplish this as a group by looking at a variety of data sets and going through each in an organized fashion while discussing the pros and cons of various techniques. \nThis workshop will be fun but also technical. By technical\, we don’t mean you need to be a math whiz\, but we will challenge your data insights and encourage you to push the analytical envelope. \nPresenterAdam Kamor (adam@tonic.ai). Since completing his PhD in Physics at Georgia Tech\, Adam has committed himself to furthering the work of others through the programs he develops. He is currently head of engineering at Tonic (https://tonic.ai)\, the platform for generating synthetic data. \nHow to find usThe location is in Inman Park. The address is 691 John Wesley Dobbs Ave NE Suite C\, Atlanta\, GA 30312. This event is located at Alkaloid Networks Coworking. When you enter the courtyard from John Wesley Dobbs Ave\, look for a red door in the far left corner.

SUMMARY:All Things Agile Gwinnett (ATAG)
DESCRIPTION:The agenda will start with a short lunch (15 minutes) sponsored by Genuent. After lunch\, we will start the meetup with brief individual introductions (10 secs each) and then move to the Lean Coffee (http://leancoffee.org/) format. 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 because attendees will need to sign in at the front desk. Parking is available in front of the building and behind the building. Please park on the M3 side since the other side of the lot is owned by SAGE. \nWe look forward to seeing you there! \nWalt and Derwin

SUMMARY:Presenter Series: Change or Die - Approaches for continuous change & improvement
DESCRIPTION:This a continuation of our Presenter Series. The presenter series is onsite only and seeks to bring in expert speakers to share their experiences in order to provoke new ideas and challenge existing paradigms within the agile space. \nJoin us as Brad Hugick and Dan Sloan present on “Change or Die”. \nDescription:These are the words that are often said within large enterprises that must continuously adapt and improve in a volatile\, uncertain\, complex and ambiguous (VUCA) world. Although it sounds simple on the surface\, it can be quite challenging to rapidly change and improve at enterprise scale. Why is this? \nIn this session\, we will unearth the challenges inherent in large-scale organizational change and why it is threatening the long-term viability of our largest enterprises. To solve this difficult problem\, we will explore a promising approach for continuous change and improvement referred to as a “Chapter of Change”. We will dig deep into the principles and practices for this approach by drawing on a powerful combination of Open Space Technology and Scrum\, while sharing real-world experiences that can be used to implement a pragmatic “Chapter of Change” format in your organization. \nMore about Dan Sloan:Dan is an Enterprise Coach and ‘ways of working’ advocate at Cox Automotive\, a global automotive services and software company focused on transforming the way the world buys\, sells\, owns and uses cars.LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/danielhsloan/ \nMore about Brad Hugick:Brad Hugick is an Enterprise Coach at Cox Automotive and currently supporting the Inventory Solutions portfolioLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/bradhugick/

SUMMARY:SAFe Scrum Master with SSM Certification
DESCRIPTION:Register Here \n\n\nDescription\nThis is a special offering of the SAFe Scrum Master course designed especially for people who have limited experience in scrum but want to explore it to build their career. \nLocation: \nCollabnet (VersionOne) Headquarters\n6220 Shiloh Rd\, Alpharetta\, GA 30005 \nSummary \nIn this two-day course\, attendees will gain an understanding of the role of a Scrum Master in a SAFe enterprise. Unlike traditional Scrum Master training that focuses on the fundamentals of team-level Scrum\, the SAFe Scrum Master course explores the role of the Scrum Master in the context of the entire enterprise\, and prepares attendees to successfully plan and execute the Program Increment (PI)\, the primary enabler of alignment throughout all levels of a SAFe organization. This includes learning the key components of Agile at scale development\, how Scrum is facilitated throughout the enterprise\, and how to execute Iteration Planning. \nAttendees will also discover how to build high performing Agile teams by becoming a servant leader and coach\, and how to coach those teams to deliver the maximum business value at scale. SAFe 4 Scrum Master (SSM) certification signifies that people are prepared to perform the role of Scrum Master in a SAFe environment\, increasing their value to teams and organizations that are implementing SAFe.

SUMMARY:Agile Lunch Bunch @AgileThought (400/Abernathy)

We’ve had great feedback on how the ensuing dialogue will really get a feel for the “pulse” of the Atlanta Agile community.

Please keep the input on how to best optimize and evolve the dialogue! \nSee you all there! \nRob Phillips \n(678) 557-9522
