Was on Friday 15th November, we spoke about…
- Strategies for encouraging senior management / execs to adopt agile ways of working
- Reporting and updates at scale – crafting something sensible?
- What have you learned about running great impact mapping sessions?
- Communities of practice outside of government, and across organisational boundaries. Who is doing it really well, and what patterns are worth adopting to start one yourself ? (apart from Agile in Ether, obvs)
