  • As an Agile practitioner do you want to know if your investments in Agile have been worth or not?
  • Do you have visibility how customer perceive the value that your agile teams are delivering?
  • Do you know the realized & unrealized value of your product?

If you are also wondering / been asked such questions by your management, then you might get some guidance from this talk.

It has been good 25 years since the Scrum was first ever introduced to the world by Ken Schwaber in 1995 OOPSLA conference.

Scrum is like game, which can be played in many ways. Since then people have used Scrum, some got failed and learned from it and few of them thrived and make most out of it. Some are passionately working and still wondering what / how they should play so that they can make most out of it. In this talk, we will be bridging gap between being agile and taking steps towards achieving organization agility.

 Sanjay Rawat (LinkedIn profile) will be uncovering few scenarios/questions such as listed below …

While Sanjay was working as Agile Practitioner/ Scrum Master/ Product Owner / Agile Project Manager He encountered these issues:

  1. What measure you can use to identify if your organization is agile or not
  2. how to improve organizational agility
  3. Management curious to know about ROI on time/budget spent in training and all the initiative that has been sponsored so far in the name of Agility.
  4. We have bought entire dev-ops tools-kit. So does this mean we are Agile?
  5. We have onboarded 5 expensive Agile coaches/Scrum Masters from last 1 year.
    • So why don’t we see/feel any change?
    • Should we continue having them in team?
    • Why our customer’s survey are not quite impressive after doing so many things on the name of Agile?
  6. I have been told in training that Scrum brings happiness in team. But then why our employee survey are not very encouraging?

If you too encountered with these questions / scenarios while working in/with Scrum team then – this talk might be useful for you

Yes, many agree that lecturing in webinars can quickly become boring and kills learning.

  • But what could be a better alternative?
  • More teasers and warm-ups?
  • Additional break-out sessions?
  • How about more exercises and activities?

All of the aforementioned techniques are palliatives. They do not change the core problems of lecturing in webinars. The key problem is that we keep “telling” participants instead of helping them reflect and apply ideas.

In this webinar, Ray will share examples and templates that will help you to strategize for your webinars — veering away from lecturing to encouraging reflections.

Topics to cover:

  • You lecture in face-to-face events, hence, you naturally do the same thing in webinars.  Why? How do you break this habit?
  • How should you break down your content and translate it into reflections?
  • How do you use the combination of pre and post engagements to break loose from dumping too much content into a one-hour webinar?
  • What are the 7 critical habits to change in webinar preparation and delivery?
  • Observe, watch, and experience how Ray delivers “No-lecture webinars”.

“This is a webinar where I show you how I walk my talk. I will show you how to stop lecturing in webinars” – Ray
