Have you ever wondered why innovative organizational leaders and high-performing developers, product designers,

UX specialists, etc. – who are otherwise excellent at what they do – are slow and hesitant to adopt Agile methodologies?

Agile transformation is a hot topic right now, but many organizations rush the implementation process without pausing to assess and address foundational issues.

The truth is, new hires or new Agile teams aren’t entirely convinced that Agile methodologies can support their expertise and simplify their day-to-day tasks. They perceive Agile transformation as “just another thing” their company is trying and are reluctant to commit.

In this workshop, Aina Aliieva (LinkedIn profile) will present a road map that will help agile practitioners and executives interested in agile transformation identify the root cause of resistance of new Agile teams and new hires.

Aina willl also look at the challenges Agile evangelists such as Scrum Masters, Agile Coaches, and POs face in implementing these methodologies.

The goal is to get all Agile stakeholders aligned with a company’s or a product’s vision and reframe how Agile is seen and used by everyone involved. After this interactive presentation, Agile specialists, executives, and product owners will know exactly how to facilitate Agile transformations with a culture-first approach, supported by coaching, mentorship, and the right kind of accountability (avoiding micromanagement).

The result?

Teams who truly believe in the potential of Agile methodologies and continue to incrementally incorporate them in their work without resistance, thus accelerating their learning curve.

Learning Outcomes:

• Uncover critical challenges faced by Agile evangelists such as  Scrum Masters, Agile Coaches, and POs in implementing Agile methodologies in their company or teams
• Understand the importance of learning by failing fast (based on key takeaways from the Dunning-Kruger effect and Dreyfus Model of Skill Mastery)
• How to facilitate a culture shift in the organization to make Agile transformation easier

As generative AI (GenAI) takes hold, marketing once again must transform at a massive pace. Marketers must become prompt engineers, technologists and strategists and still meet today’s business demands.

Chief marketing officers (CMOs) must not only create value, but prove and communicate marketing’s value on a continual basis to keep up.

Business growth goals require resource and cost optimization, even as CMOs are asked to accept more functional responsibilities.

Current marketing organizations have capability gaps that are barriers to growth, and if CMOs do not address this change, their marketing organizations will get caught in a downward vortex that will be too hard to fix.

Join this complimentary Gartner marketing webinar as a Gartner expert explores how CMOs must reinvent their marketing organizations from top to bottom to build a world-class marketing organization.

You will walk away from this session with answers to your vital questions, a copy of the research slides and recommended actions to help you achieve your goals.

Discussion Topics:

• Understand why CMOs must reinvent the marketing function
• Identify the 15 decisions CMOs must make ahead of restructuring the marketing org
• Devise an organizational design strategy and plan that always starts with why

Surveys are key tools for evaluating training programs. Surveys are revered for their ease of use and promise of reaching many, but we must be able to craft rich, concise, and focused questions that yield useful data.

For this, we must understand the cognitive processes our respondents use to answer questions with accuracy and candor.

With rich examples and an interactive approach, Sheila will demonstrate why we must engage in a respondent-centered and research-based survey design process to craft high quality questions. Participants will increase their understanding of how to design high quality surveys and leave with resources for further skill development.

Floyd Fowler, preeminent survey researcher,  claims, “Poor [survey] question design is pervasive, and improving questions design is one of the easiest, most cost-effective steps that can be taken to improve the quality of survey data.”
