Synopsis
Agile and Scrum techniques have shifted how much of the digital tech industry develops products and services. Unexpectedly, there's a second life to Agile: In the world of HR, learning and change. Hear from Perry Timms about his work in this area and how there's a growing band of HR practitioners using product stories, kanban boards and hosting retrospectives. And it's surprisingly effective. What can technologists take away from this? A way to let their own Agile methods crossover into creating roles and objectives, adapting people management approaches and designing organisations where people flourish.
