Find And Fix Your Agile Anti-Patterns, With AI! @ Scrum Professionals
2026-06-04 18:00 - 20:00 (America/Los_Angeles) | Online
Is your team truly agile? Most agile dysfunctions don’t announce themselves. They creep in quietly, dressed up as process compliance, feature delivery deadlines, and people too busy for retrospectives. In this hands-on mini-workshop, participants will use a diagnostic assessment from Agile Meets AI: A Pragmatic Guide for Modern Teams to surface the anti-patterns most likely to threaten a team’s agility.
But diagnosis is only the beginning. In the second half of the session, we’ll explore how AI can help teams do something with what they find. Moving from “we know the problem” to “here’s our experiment for next sprint.” Participants leave with a prioritized improvement target and practical AI-augmented strategies to act on it immediately.

The Joyful System @ Scrum Professionals Meetup
2026-05-07 18:00 - 20:00 (America/Los_Angeles) | Online
Most teams don’t struggle because people aren’t working hard enough. They struggle because the system they’re working in is quietly shaping behavior, decisions, and outcomes, often in ways no one can see.
In this highly interactive session, Emilia Breton invites participants to experience their organization as a living system that amplifies both joy and dysfunction. Through story, reflection, and a potent hands-on activity called the String Game, you’ll learn how to make invisible relationship systems visible, uncover hidden communication patterns, and discover how play creates the safety needed for real change.
You’ll leave with practical tools for sensing your system, asking better questions, and creating conditions where people and results can genuinely thrive.
