Activate Agile

Wednesday 26 June 2019 at Hilton Sydney from 1.00pm – 4.30pm.

Meet the techies working in Sydney’s boss-level companies at Activate Agile!

‘Agile’ is an approach to working used across the world’s leading organisations to improve corporate culture and the quality of products. Activate Agile is a FREE interactive afternoon designed for students and educators to learn more about better ways of working with Agile.

Running alongside the AgileAus Conference, this is a unique opportunity to tap into the brains of those working in leading tech companies. Find out what it’s really like to work as a developer, business analyst, product manager or designer; discover the traits tech employers are looking for; and get an insight into the approaches and practices used in Agile workplaces.

Program

Following an introduction to Agile presented by a bona-fide Agile Coach, you’ll get to choose from a range of activities to participate in, all happening in one room!

We’ll be using a ‘vote with your feet’ approach, which means you don’t need to sign up to any of the activities prior to the day – just walk over to the ones that interest you.
