Dr. Olga Pierrakos and Jim York will be speaking at the Business Agility Conference in New York City on 26-27 April.
Title: Agile, Higher Education, and Educating the Next Generation of Engineers
Abstract:
In 2017, 55 students embarked on pursuing an undergraduate engineering degree just as thousands of other engineering students across the nation did that fall. The difference this cohort faced was that their engineering program did not yet exist. Whereas most new programs have two to four years of planning, this new engineering program would be created just-in-time as the students progressed through their four year journey to become engineers. The founding team arrived on site just six weeks before the students and their goal was to reimagine engineering education in a liberal arts context and ensure the program could be accredited. This is a story of agility in higher education including both its successes and its sacrifices.

Online Event
Transformation implies change. Learning loops can lead to better outcomes.
Often, we allow perfect to be the enemy of good. Agility uses experiments based on assumptions to drive outcomes. How can we experiment and take the resulting learnings to make them useful in our transformations?
Learning is not a linear process, but a loop, in which a circular path is followed along which teams and their management continually evaluate, assess, and improve progress toward goals over time. Learning loops encompass the definition of agility by performing rapid, iterative learning cycles, seeking progress over perfection.
Executive and Team Coach Jim York will share insights, personal anecdotes, experiences, and pragmatic guidelines to help you bring these concepts into the transformation of your organization. He will discuss the power of double-loop learning and its practical application in the interconnected learning loops of purpose, process, and people which surround the ultimate learning loop — discovering the needs of the customer. He will also discuss four key elements, or stages, of the learning loop:
Goal Setting - identifying desired outcomes and definition of success
Execution - building and executing experiments (single loop learning)
Inspection - reviewing the experiment output to gather insights on fit for purpose
Adaptation - applying new knowledge gained to guide the next experiment (double loop learning)
Jim York is a business owner with a focus on helping teams discover how to delight their customers. He uses systems thinking, agile and lean to co-create resilient, learning teams with a focus on value. As a coach, he teaches others to grow in directions that matter to them to achieve their goals and pursue their passions. Jim is a Certified Agile Coach®️, holding both the Certified Enterprise Coach and Certified Team Coach credentials; Certified Scrum Trainer®️; Agile Fluency ®️ facilitator; LeSS Practitioner and co-founder of FoxHedge Ltd.
ARE WE LEARNING? THE IMPORTANCE OF LEARNING LOOPS IN TRANSFORMATION
Transformation implies change. Join this session to see how the effective use of learning loops can better inform direction and execution of change leading to better outcomes.

"The moment a Product Backlog item meets the Definition of Done, an Increment is born.”
— The Scrum Guide, November 2020
What a great way of capturing the essence of what is meant by a Product Backlog item, the Definition of Done and an Increment!
Take a product, add Scrum, stir in a Product Backlog Item during a Sprint until the it meets the Definition of Done, and out pops an Increment.
Sounds almost as easy as baking holiday cookies and just as likely to be appreciated by the customer as the consumers of said cookies!
The Scrum Guide was just been updated and somehow it has gotten shorter and less prescriptive and more clear and simpler… and just as hard to do!
If you want to learn more about how these changes might influence you and your team’s practice, join us for a discussion with Jim York, Executive and Team Coach, Certified Enterprise Coach, Certified Scrum Trainer | Co-owner, FoxHedge LTD
