Should you care about the TECHNOLOGY part of socio-technical systems? with Steve Tendon
July 1, 2021 @ 3:00 pm - 4:00 pm EDT
Al Shalloway, Steve Tendon and Joshua Barnes will discuss that while we might all be very concerned about processes, methods, and frameworks to make our organizations more effective, we must not forget that we are operating in socio-technical systems. Technology is so widespread around us that we almost take it for granted. What about if we paid more attention to how new emerging and innovative technologies can impact our ways of working? Do we have the tools and models to systematically make such assessments?
Why UN-Common Sense
As popular as Agile is, its success rate is not particularly high. Your three hosts believe this is because most organizations are being led by cargo cult and echo chambers. Many brilliant and proven concepts are not in any of the more popular approaches. This has resulted in a huge gap between what is possible and what is being achieved. The Uncommon Sense sessions will present many concepts that organizations should be using but that are not popular while also uncover myths present in popular methods that are holding organizations back.
The hosts of Uncommon sense are either creators of cutting edge, but proven approaches (Al, Steve) or an experienced trainer / practitioner in Agile methods. This will ensure you get both the theory and the practice of the methods being described.
