Innovation and agile can co-exist and accelerate each other. Applying innovative thinking in agile environment can increase productivity, loyalty and add value.

This workshop can motivate everyone working in development teams on new ideas or to create innovation ecosystem.

What is customised approach to agile and how it gives the chance to innovation efforts?

The workshop is interactive with presentation on innovation methods and the ways to create innovation process, but also with exercises on techniques how to increase personal and group skills.

We will talk about many existing examples and future scenarios. Some exercises will be in groups, others in person.

We will discuss about the ways to create innovation outcomes and the essential part of the process - including product managers to the process (what is the role of product managers?).

We will discuss on how to bring ideas to the kanboard, backlog or product plan. How to help developers in realising their ideas and managers in a way to find the right path to success story.

One notable skill is how to give quick feedback on ideas - which can be realised quickly, and which must be quickly stopped, also can we create the space for quick failure. This is the story of improvement (also micro improvements) and innovations.

We will discuss on how to encourage autonomous teams as they have space and encouragement for ideas, others not.
