I had the opportunity to join Bruce Nix, Director of Business Agility for Vaco, prior to the July 2020 Memphis Agile Meetup where I hosted a session about creating a truly Agile culture.

In this conversation we get into a lot of topics in a short time frame all about how to break the cultural inertia that often limits the success and benefits of shifting to more agile ways of working and being.  And, I also share my top 3 ideas for getting started too!

Join me and my guest, Christine Marty-Kotecki, Director of People Development at IKOS, as we talk about her personal Agile journey, how creating an amazing workplace is THE place for shared leadership, and how creating the space for creativity is possible by giving power to others.

Some highlights of our engaging conversation include:

How as a the solo person in People Development at her company, Christine has embraced the power of involving people from across the business to create a healthy workplace culture and value-added people practices - and why a big HR department can do the same

That asking for help is not a sign of weakness rather a powerful acceptance of vulnerability and an invitation to collaborate

What makes someone truly agile is their ability to be themselves in all they do - and to know that path to success and engagement is anything but direct

Join me and my guest, McCaul Baggett, Scrum Practice Coach with Scrum Inc., as we talk about how now, maybe more than ever, Scrum Masters play a vital leadership role in an organization - paying attention to team engagement, health, and delivery while building bridges across the organization to remove barriers, amplify success, and contribute to a healthy workplace - whether it be virtually, in-person, or a mix of both.

Highlights of our conversation include:

- how paying attention to people's well-being has changed in our virtual world and what Scrum Masters can do to slow down enough to check-in and be present - and sometimes say the hard things that need to be said so others can hear it

- the importance of relationships and why getting close with HR can be a powerful way for Scrum Masters to help increase real engagement awareness for the organization

- what metrics actually matter and how making them visible across teams and organizations regularly can empower many to share in the responsibility of sustaining a healthy workplace that also delivers a ton of value for those it serves
