Flight Levels Day
Momentum’s coordination chaos solved – How Flight Levels Unlocked Effective Agile interactions
Flight Levels Day 05 Talk by: Joanne Perold, Elsje van Rooyen
Join us as we share the journey of three value streams striving to enhance coordination, streamline interactions, and foster agility within their teams as they deliver on the strategy and ensure stable systems. We’ll explore the organisational context, the challenges we aimed to address, and the experiments we’ve undertaken to improve collaboration and coordination.
This talk offers an authentic look at the complexities of ensuring the right conversations happen with the right people—while reducing the overall meeting load. While we haven’t found all the answers, we’ve made meaningful progress and are excited to share our learnings, failures, and insights along the way. Come ready to reflect on your own practices and leave with actionable ideas to apply in your context.
