The introduction of agile has caused disruption throughout organisations. The role of a business analyst is no exception, but has it made business analysis redundant? During this talk we will delve into how the different stages of agile adoption have transformed IT departments and where the role of business analysis fits. It has introduced cross functional teams as opposed to skill silos, which means we are looking for T shaped individuals to make up a great team. Do we still need business analysts in agile? People with analysis skills? Or we don’t need analysis at all?!

Insanity; it’s doing the same thing over and over again, and expecting different results. Improving as an organisation is hard. What is even harder? Continuously improving. Yet it is key to any Agile transformation as we challenge ingrained practices and rigid ways of working. How do we manage to do this?! During this presentation, I will share the strategies I've used to introduce Retrospectives, Lean Coffee, Brown Bags, Team 1:1s, and Guilds in the trenches. All of these continuous improvement practices have fast tracked Agile transformations in the teams and organisations I've worked with. Implement these practices and you can go beyond Agile adoption too.

We can no longer afford to work independently of each other. In order for teams to deliver great outcomes we need to collaborate. Agile encourages collaboration via many different workshops. But, running these workshops can be hard. In order to ensure we don’t waste time, we need a strong facilitator. Today, I want to share with you some of the tips and techniques that I have learnt over the years when it comes to running great collaborative workshops. We will go through some of the key Agile workshops: Project Inceptions, Story Card Workshops, Story Kick-offs, Retrospectives and more. You too can learn the art to facilitating great collaborative workshops.

Retrospectives are one of the most important and common Agile ceremonies, but are you and your team bored with them? Do you always use the same, old format, or are they just proving to be ineffective? The aim of this session is to empower you to change things up within your team or company and bring the Retrospective back to life. You will learn about a number of new and different Retrospective techniques that you can start using immediately back at your company. It's time for Retrospectives to Strike Back!

The Agile Business Analyst seems to be a bit of an unknown quantity to some people. Frameworks like Scrum and SAFe have no mention of the Business Analyst. Is it because they don't understand us? Is it because to outsiders we're living in secret? Andrew and Ryan will explain how the Agile Business Analyst is an essential role that is evolving as our the world around us is constantly change and becoming increasingly more complex. Our focus is shifting from just requirements to delivering value. Throughout this talk and discussion with the audience we will demystify the secret life of the Agile Business Analyst.

There are a lot of statements that claim that Business Analysts are not needed in Agile or that there is no planning or documentation. However, this is absolutely not the case! Andrew Thorpe and Ryan McKergow will explain how all the essential Business Analysts competencies are still applicable and important within Agile, what are the values and behaviours that an Agile Business Analyst will need to embody, and what the day in the life of an Agile Business Analyst looks like.

You will learn about a number of new and different Retrospective techniques that you can start using immediately at your next Retro. I will also include real life experience what it was like to use each format and provide advice on when to use each format. Let's bring life back to the Retrospective.

Retrospectives are fairly common among Agile teams, but are you and your team bored with Retrospectives? Do you always use the same, old format, or are they just proving to be ineffective. The aim of this presentation is to empower you to be the cause of change that will bring the Retrospective back to life. You will learn the importance of Retrospectives, how to ensure they are successful, and be introduced to a number of new techniques that you can take away. By jazzing up your Retros, you'll be able to renew interest in this important ceremony, gain new insights from your team, and ultimately maintain a focus on continuous improvement within your team.

Corporate and higher education. Two industries that, in the past, have had a clear divide with very little crossover. The difference in goals, learning styles and objectives paved the way for differing learning technologies platforms to evolve. Now, those stark lines are blurring as both sides are discovering they have content that’s relevant to the other. Join Tammy Rutherford as she walks through the pros and cons of corporate and higher ed collaborating. And the challenges of these different technology platforms working together for a brighter future.

Tracing the root cause of a performance issue requires a lot of patience, experience, and focus. It’s so hard that we sometimes attempt to guess by trying out tentative fixes, but that usually results in frustration, messy code, and a considerable waste of time and money. This talk explains how to correctly zoom in on a performance bottleneck using three levels of profiling: distributed tracing, metrics, and method profiling. After we learn to read the JVM profiler output as a flame graph, we explore a series of bottlenecks typical for backend systems, like connection/thread pool starvation, invisible aspects, blocking code, hot CPU methods, lock contention, and Virtual Thread pinning, and we learn to trace them even if they occur in library code you are not familiar with. Attend this talk and prepare for the performance issues that will eventually hit any successful system. About authorWith two decades of experience, Victor is a Java Champion working as a trainer for top companies in Europe. Five thousands developers in 120 companies attended his workshops, so he gets to debate every week the challenges that various projects struggle with. In return, Victor summarizes key points from these workshops in conference talks and online meetups for the European Software Crafters, the world’s largest developer community around architecture, refactoring, and testing.
