The Agile Leadership Journey™ Program

The Agile Leadership Journey™ Program provides education, direction and coaching for leaders to personally navigate their own path toward improved leadership effectiveness and improving the effectiveness of their organizations. Agile Scaling Frameworks have become the goto solution but are falling short in improving outcomes because they do not adequately address the mindset and behavior of the leader and their role in shaping the culture to enable agile principles and practices to thrive. Since 2011, we have built a globally respected program providing agile leadership education and coaching to leaders and organizations in our community through a global network of experienced, passionate, and articulate guides. http://agileleadershipjourney.com/

	Agile Austria Conference 2019 Changing the way we work has reached so many people and companies. Agile can be found and heard at any corner. It helps people and companies to simplify their way of working, and get more value out of it. It became almost a de-facto standard. But still the questions why, how to, and how did others approach it are present and important to be asked. This is why we chose "The Road to Agile" as this year's theme with the underlying tracks "Why Agile", "How To: Agile", and "Case Studies". With this year's Agile Austria Conference, we hope to help you further in your journey and to inspire even more people to join us. Agile Austria - 25. and 26. June 2019, WKO Graz.
	Fans of LeSS We are calling B.S. on what is usually sold as Agile and Scrum. We love the four values and twelve principles of the Agile Manifesto, the original reason our movement was called Agile. Some of us were also inspired by a realistic and useful vision of Scrum. But Agile and Scrum are usually twisted to mean something incompatible with this prior intent, especially in organizations that are bigger than one team. Saying yes to agility means saying no to things that are mischaracterized as Agile. Here are some things we can do instead: eliminate processes not owned by teams eliminate unnecessary intermediate layers and handoffs (e.g. people mislabeled “Product Owners” who actually own only one team instead of the whole Product) eliminate unnecessary process-imposed role segregation (e.g. various kinds of crypto-project-managers) eliminate software tools that affect the way teams manage their Product Backlogs and Sprint Backlogs eliminate the obsession with quantitative measures learn to detect other traditional practices relabeled and disguised as “Agile”

	Konference Projektový Management Konference PM is one of the largest and most traditional PM conferences in the Czech Republic (it is going to be 12th year of the conference). It is taking place in Zlin (the city of Thomas Bata) on 15. and 16. of May 2019. It is organized as a noncommercial project by University of Thomas Bata and PM Consulting, so the focus is on PM topic itself rather than to some PR presentations. The agenda contains topics from all PM practices – traditional or agile, hard and soft. There are some unique characteristics – really much space for networking (there is a rich evening program), partnership with all major professional chambers (PMI, IPMA, Agile Association, etc.) and much more.
