Title:
Agile Unicorns
Short synopsis:
Unicorns are very agile animals (didn’t you know?!). Team Unicorn are one of the squads based at Sky’s tech hub in Leeds. Looking after Sky mobile, the squad have had to really embrace agile, enabling them to adapt and deliver on all of Sky mobiles goals. This talk is aimed at scrum masters, agile coaches and anyone interested in agile team development. Hopefully you gain an insight in how we have used agile, what has worked for us and what tips and tricks could help for you and your teams.

Long synopsis (optional):
Team Unicorn live at Leeds dock as part of Sky’s tech hub. They are responsible for the ‘myaccount’ section of Sky Mobile. As a relatively young proposition within Sky, Sky Mobile has a relentless programme of new, exciting and challenging deliveries. With such high profile and ambitious go-live dates Team Unicorn have had to continually adapt, to enable them to deliver quickly and successfully. With help from the agile manifesto and its 12 principles we have been able to respond to change easily, build better software, increase our customer collaboration and grow our interactions and grow as individuals. Yes it can be challenging, yes there will be bumps in the road, but with perseverance, team buy-in, time and commitment to these, teams really can grow and become wonderful magical animals.
