Abstract: Struggling with agile at scale? Thinking about scaling agile beyond the team? Want to learn from others mistakes? Well don’t panic, and carry a towel. After all “any man who can hitch the length and breadth of the Galaxy, rough it, slum it, struggle against terrible odds, win through and still know where his towel is , is clearly a man to be reckoned with.”
There is a lot to be learnt from those who have successfully Hitchhiked their way to the galaxy of Scaled Agile, but there is also much to learn from those who have gotten a little lost upon the way. This session celebrates the scaled agile hitchhiker, the people who tried and failed, with ideas that were occasionally brilliant but often plain stupid. You will laugh, you will cry but you will also walk away will a nice long list of ideas not to try when scaling agile!
