Talk description
Title:
Ontological constraints in coaching ‘Agile Teams’
Short synopsis:
Ontology is a branch of philosophy focusing on study and nature of ‘being’, now this term is also widely used in social science, computer science and in many other fields. In general ontology focuses on the nature being for everything for example take an apple. The existence of apple can be seen, felt and can be tasted. In the context of managing Agile teams, the session focuses on “way of being for people.” The intention of the workshop is to give the participants a glimpse of “being” as an experience. It is important to understand and know the difference between “doing” and “being”, since in any agile implementation “being agile” is more important than doing agile. If this distinction is not made very clear then all the agile practices will face the risk of ending up like rituals without significant outcomes. This is an interactive and reflective session. more details https://mithare.wordpress.com/2016/09/

Long synopsis (optional):
Ontology is a branch of philosophy focusing on study and nature of ‘being’, now this term is also widely used in social science, computer science and in many other fields. The term is derived from Greek words, “Onto” for existence and “logia” for study, science. In general ontology focuses on the nature being for everything for example take an apple. The existence of apple can be seen, felt and can be tasted. In the context of managing Agile teams, the session focuses on “way of being for people.” The intention of the workshop is to give the participants a glimpse of “being” as an experience. It is important to understand and know the difference between “doing” and “being”, since in any agile implementation “being agile” is more important than doing agile. If this distinction is not made very clear then all the agile practices will face the risk of ending up like rituals without significant outcomes. During the sessions one key exercise is to identify the subtle differences in actions taken (doing), results obtained (having) and the experience (being). The importance that the language plays in differentiating the experience is also discussed. In the later part of the workshop the key constraints which are natural to all human beings are discussed and demonstrated through games. The best way to understand these concepts is to participate in one of the sessions and experience it. more details (and slides) https://mithare.wordpress.com/2016/09/ Slides http://www.slideshare.net/RaghavendraRaghavMit/mithare-raghavendra-sgblr-01?ref=https://mithare.wordpress.com/2016/09/
