Title:
Agile is tasty. Eat your own dog food
Short synopsis:
Agile is very tasty. We are used to taste it in software development. But what about the other areas? I’ll share my experience in conducting the Agile transition in HR and Finance departments of an agile consulting company.

Long synopsis (optional):
Even with an agile DNA, we sometimes find it challenging to work according to the agile values and principles we are so fond of. Mostly because it’s more challenging to implement Agile in a company which is not a software house. We asked ourselves: what does Agile mean for us on the inside? And in general, what does working in the agile way mean for a consulting company? That’s when some members of our team gathered around this subject and started working on it. In short sprints, with daily synchros, retrospectives, more face-to-face, transparency, collaboration and commitment. Many impediments, iterations and attempts later, we’ve reinvented all of our processes, implemented new tools and adopted new practices, keeping in mind our colleagues in France, Netherlands and Switzerland Through this session, I want to share with you this 4 years journey with all its failures & successes, the benefits and the challenges still lying ahead of us.
