About the session
The Internal Communications team at Cambridge University Press & Assessment has been on an Agile journey over the last two and a half years. By charting new territory for the industry and subverting traditional Agile practices for a non-traditional context, we've learnt a huge amount about our profession, our customers, and ourselves.
In this session, we'll share our top learnings, and some practical tips about how any team can go Agile – fearlessly.
We’ll share our journey from Agile novices to Agile pioneers – from the tentative formation of a Scrum team, through a host of innovations and improvements, to the thriving collaborative dream team we are today.
Participant takeaways:
- Learn how Agile can bring benefits for any team in any industry
- Find out how breaking the mould gets results
- See how Agile can be applied to BAU as well as project work
