- 3. Agile is Evolving…
• Growing beyond the software industry
• Agile is Mindset movement
• Business influencers spreading the word
• Agile can be a business tool
• Harvard Business Review, Forbes magazine
• Modern Agile movement
• Simplifies and generalizes agile for broader audiences
• Only 4 guiding principles
• Make people awesome
• Make safety a prerequisite
• Experiment and learn rapidly
• Deliver continuous value
- 4. Agile culture change is becoming better understood
• Culture is a shared set of beliefs, values, and assumptions
• Shifting culture must happen obliquely
• Learning anxiety must be less than survival anxiety
• Change 2-3 behaviors at a time and you will change beliefs
• Executives and leaders need coaching too!
• Selling agile to executives is still hard
• Stop using trade lingo
• Stop playing games
• Stop referencing Dilbert
• Leverage case studies, short videos, expert testimonies
- 8. Agile at scale in the enterprise is becoming mainstream
• Transformation patterns have emerged
• Smart companies are focusing on outcomes over process
• Choose agile practices that improve throughput and results
• Often requires org restructuring to achieve lean and agile delivery
• Multiple frameworks represented (listed by popularity)
• Scrum of Scrums
• SAFe
• Spotify Tribes
• Large Scale Scrum (LeSS)
• Disciplined Agile Delivery
• Nexus
• PMOs are becoming PfMOs (Portfolio Management Offices)
• Shift from explicit projects to leaner epics as unit of portfolio work and
measurement
- 19. Streamlining DevOps
• Cattle vs Pets
• Containers
• Infrastructure as Code (IaC)
• Self service app & container fabrics (CaaS)
Docker is a game changer!

…that can be manipulated using
standard operations and run
consistently on virtually any
hardware platform
An engine that enables any
payload to be encapsulated
as a lightweight, portable,
self-sufficient container…
- 25. Why it works—separation of concerns
• Dan the Developer
• Worries about what’s “inside” the
container
• His code
• His Libraries
• His Package Manager
• His Apps
• His Data
• All Linux servers look the same
• Oscar the Ops Guy
• Worries about what’s “outside”
the container
• Logging
• Remote access
• Monitoring
• Network config
• All containers start, stop, copy,
attach, migrate, etc. the same
way

Containers are isolated,

appropriate, bins/libraries

…result is significantly faster deployment,
much less overhead, easier migration,
faster restart
