Tony and Craig are at Agile Australia 2017 in Sydney and wander the very busy hallways catching up with attendees and with old friends:

• Sieger de Vries – enjoyed Matt Pancino talk “The future of Agile in the enterprise: has the war been lost?”, distributed Agile and use of partnering is here to stay
• Mia Horrigan from Zen Ex Machina and Joseph Gard from Australian Taxation Office – lots of Agile interest in Canberra around scaling Agile and leading the change in government, enjoyed Barry O’Reilly keynote “Lessons deploying Lean Enterprise“
• Venky Krishnamurthy from The Empirical Coach – LeSS is purely based on evidence from experiments that was created into a framework, enjoyed Jez Humble workshop and keynote “Continuous Delivery Sounds Great But It Won’t Work Here“
• Steve Scotson from 4impact – enjoyed the high standard and breadth of subject matter around innovation and organisation change
• Karyl Crick – more managers should come to these events to see how Agile can help rather than just listening to the people above them, enjoyed Esther Derby keynote “Leaders at all Levels” and Stuart Mitchell talk “Agile Governance: Evolution or Revolution“
• Sally Greenwood – enjoyed Matt Pancino talk, the advocates at CommBank already existed they just needed to make it happen, “it’s not about scaling agile up, it about descaling the organisation”
