Programme

1) What Does Agile Actually Mean For Developers
Stuart Grimshaw
Most agile transformations focus on ceremonies, story points and processes, but often skip over what being agile means for developers day to day. Stuart will explore the working practices and mindset shifts developers need to succeed, drawing on over 30 years’ experience across e-commerce, transport, “big data” and government.


2) Psychological Safety: Explore What It Is, and Isn’t (with Liberating Structures)
Jon Fulton and Christie Ronaldson
Psychological safety has been identified as the top factor for successful teams, yet it is still widely misunderstood. Jon will cut through the myths, share real-world experiences, and guide participants through practical exercises using liberating structures. You’ll leave with a clear, actionable understanding of psychological safety and how to apply it within your teams and organisations.
