Building a start up in a traditional enterprise organisation and making it stick
Rob Bowley, product & tech leadership advisor:
An honest, behind-the-scenes account of Co-op’s digital transformation – from launching a start-up-style digital function inside a 150-year-old organisation, to embedding lasting change. This experience report covers the highs and lows of building a modern engineering culture, delivering real outcomes, navigating politics, and making the transformation stick after the initial hype faded.

Jade Hanley, product manager:

Jade will take you through her own improv journey—why she started and how it helped her build confidence, and guide you through some exercises in small groups that maximise collaboration.

You’ll come away with practical techniques and exercises you can do with your team to maximise collaboration and build a stronger team. Your team sessions will never be the same again!
