Keynote presentatie tijdens het jaarcongres:
The Agile Worker – What does it mean to be a knowledge worker in the Digital Age?
Beschrijving:
The last 3 years have taught us all the value of agility. To be more agile at work, at home, and in life. The modern age with flat supply chains, a changing climate, and exponential growth of digital technology has made business agility every organization’s number one priority. But what does that mean for knowledge workers? How do they navigate this new, ever-changing world? What have we learned from the pandemic? And can these lessons be applied in the future?
In this talk, Dave West, CEO of Scrum.org, talks about the future of work for knowledge workers and what skills and mindset they need to thrive in this post industrial work. He weaves in stories from successful organizations and real people describing how individuals can be prepared to navigate the next technology revolution.
