Agile in Communication #hoedan, Sep 18, Bilthoven

Agile Holland and Agile Marcom Consortium present an evening around the launch of a white paper on  Agile in Communication.

Five years ago, Betteke van Ruler launched her book Reflective Communication Scrum, which unleashed a bunch of energy to approach our work differently in communication. Today quite a few communication professionals work in an agile way completing projects and going concern tasks.

Time to take stock. What works and what doesn’t when applying agile to communication? Some pressing questions in this regard are bundled in a white paper, reflecting the opinion of professionals working with agile in this field from the beginning. In this event, the white paper is presented to Mariëtte Pasman (communication RIVM & boardmember Logeion) and the main findings in it are shared by Marlous Mooij (Independent project manager) and Mariëlle Roozemond (Agile marcom coach & lecturer).

We are happy to close the evening with a talk of one of the co-authors of the Agile Manifesto; Arie van Bennekum (thoughtleader Wemanity). He always claimed that the manifesto was written for those wanting to uncover better ways to do any kind of complex project work, including non-IT. Seeing the rise of Agile in different domains has strengthen this conviction. He points to principles and practices that any creative worker can use in today’s fast paced workplace.
