Janet Wu (Aftership) will share what a local growing tech startup learnt from adopting Agile and Scrum, how they made the theory work in practice and the lessons learned by the leaders in supporting the teams to achieving success in this way of working.
Topics include: how Aftership shifted away from hierarchy to self-organisation, adjusting to long term planning in an Agile environment, the role of ‘HR’ in supporting the teams, and how to assess the growth and development of an Agile organisation
The talk will be conducted in an interview style and Janet hopes her experience sharing can help others learn and deal with certain challenges in supporting the Agile organisation.
Thank you to UBS for hosting the event. They will also be ordering some pizza and there will be time to mingle at what will probably be the last Agile HK event for the year!
