SUMMARY:Agile Lunch Bunch @Boosterthon (Mansell/400)
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=RuQCNkF4uO8) 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: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:All Things Agile Gwinnett (ATAG)
DESCRIPTION:***** Meetup date has changed to March 8th ***** \nThe 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 a Quick-Fire (10-15 minute) discussion on Kanban presented by Jeremy Pullen of Polodis Inc. \nThe event will 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\, and begin talking. 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:Deliver Quality Software Faster with Automated Testing w/ Aaron Lindsay
DESCRIPTION:Modern Agile environments are pushing to deliver high quality software at speed. Mobile applications\, IoT devices\, and microservices must provide the most cutting-edge features to customers\, while organizations contend with legacy applications that are driving the backend or are undergoing re-architecture for cloud deployments. If a defect is pushed to customers as a result of a change\, it can have cascading negative brand effects. To successfully deliver quality at speed\, organizations need to adopt automated processes to ensure software is tested fully. In this session\, Parasoft will present how to evolve from manual to automated testing by leveraging technologies including static analysis\, unit testing\, functional testing\, and load testing\, in an always-on\, stable test environment. \nAaron Lindsay has been helping Parasoft’s clients harden code\, develop functional testing solutions\, and virtualize their environments for almost 7 years. He has worked on projects all across America\, South America\, and India incorporating service virtualization into verticals that range from banking and healthcare to defense organizations. \nPrior to Parasoft Aaron worked with an R&D team under Dr. Ciera Jaspan to identify collaboration constrains in Java frameworks and developed static analysis tools that would identify defects.
