I moderated a panel on flow and the future of Agile with Chet Hendrickson, Joshua Kerievsky, Mirko Kleiner, Steve Denning and Jon Kern. We covered management, safety, human-centered design and cognitive diversity.
Safety at the core
The panel looks at safety in eXtreme Programming and Agile and its role in performance. We learn from the Hyatt housekeepers, who found their own fixes to everyday problems.
Beyond the echo chamber
Every industry evolves, and thriving takes an understanding of that change. We explore Agile outside its usual echo chamber. Mental health, psychological safety, food, exercise and sleep all shape a team’s ability to change.
Management, CEOs and AI
We look ahead at Agile management, CEOs and the future of business. The panel weighs the benefits and risks of artificial intelligence. We sketch a multi-dimensional reimagining of management and what it would mean for business schools. One idea on the table: 20% of firms could put the bottom 80% out of business.
Flow comes from people who can see the whole system and adapt together.
What would change in your organization if management were reimagined from the ground up?
