1st Conference takes inspiration from the Heart of Agile construct of “Collaborate, Deliver, Reflect, Improve”. How can we be successful, if our colleagues are distributed across locations, continents and timezones? Working remotely can be a win-win for everyone when companies have a plan for supporting efficiency and fostering streamlined, engaging teamwork, and when individuals are prepared to collaborate productively. Lisette will use her experience with companies who work successfully in such circumstances and her knowledge of agile principles to help us find a way. In this talk, we’ll explore how digital nomads, virtual entrepreneurs, and global organizations are reaching through the screens to collaborate seamlessly at a distance. You will walk away with new ideas for what it means to be present at work and how to create that sense of camaraderie even when you’re virtual.
