Presentation Description:

Innovation has had two decades of software-centric methodologies. Project success rates are not great. The employee experience is not great. What makes innovation difficult is not software, so this should be no surprise. What makes innovation difficult are people – how we interact, collaborate, and compete with each other. Therefore, a people-centric methodology is not revolutionary. It’s just overdue. Your code will be just fine.

Learning Objectives:

• How and why to adopt a people-centric methodology
• Enthusiasm and confidence to adopt a new methodology
• Sanity, safety, and self-respect whether you’re pursue this or no
