Workshop: Tweet"Advanced Disciplined Agile Delivery: Scaling Scrum/Agile for the Enterprise"
There is a lot more to agile solution delivery than Scrum. First, it’s about delivering solutions, not just developing software. Second, you need to address the complete delivery lifecycle from end-to-end, not just construction. Third, you need to address all aspects of delivery – architecture, testing, programming, analysis, and more – not just project leadership and change management. Fourth, you often need to work in situations that are more complex than small co-located teams. Fifth, there are hundreds of agile techniques to choose from and then combine but that’s a difficult and expensive endeavor without coherent guidance.
Disciplined Agile Delivery (DAD) is a process decision framework is a people-first, hybrid agile solution delivery process that is goal-driven, governed, and enterprise aware. The first day of this hands-on workshop is a deep dive into the fundamentals of Disciplined Agile Delivery (DAD) with an activities-based view of the process framework. On the second day participants explore how to take a goals-driven approach to tailor DAD to address the unique situation they find themselves in. Is your team large? Is it geographically distributed? Does it need to conform to regulations? Does it face a complex business problem domain? Do you face cultural challenges within your organization that makes it difficult to be agile? Workshop participants will work through how to address these scaling factors and more.
Workshop participants will receive a certificate of completion and earn fourteen professional development units (PDUs).
