					                    Abstract
					
						We had problems: a giant legacy system, nightmarish installs every few months, and our chosen Agile scaling framework wasn’t making it better. In this talk I’ll cover how we replaced Agile process with engineering, moved from quarterly to daily delivery, and enabled teams to get the feedback they needed to deliver the right things at the right time with predictability, less drama, and more joy. Join me for recommendations for teams and for broader value stream improvements that work in every context.

    I’m a passionate advocate for continuous delivery with over two decades of experience building and operating mission-critical systems for very large enterprises. I understand from experience that solving the problems required to continuously deliver value improves outcomes for the end-users, the organization, and the people doing the work.
I currently work for Defense Unicorns helping to solve some of the hardest software supply chain problems.

        Bridging Silos and Overcoming Collaboration Antipatterns in Multidisciplinary Organisations
        Wednesday Jun 14 / 05:25PM EDT
        
            
            I’ve noticed an increasingly worrying trend in the industry of specialisation and silos at the expense of collaboration, shared responsibility and valuable outcomes.

        Agile beyond software
        Success Patterns in for building Cyber-Physical Systems with Agile
        Wednesday Jun 14 / 01:40PM EDT
        
            
            Agile practices have empirically shown to increase adaptability, reduce lead times, reduce cost, increase quality, and increase employee morale for small software application teams. Scaled Agile expanded these benefits beyond teams to release trains and solution trains with thousands of people.
