Accepting and learning to deal with Social Complexity in Agile adoption 

Ari-Pekka Skarp hosts the track Social Complexity, Navigating Social Systems. In that track, Ari-Pekka interviews several speakers on some of the key concepts of Complexity at work. These interviews include a Keynote interview with Chris Mowles and an interview with Juho Partanen. Both experts in management and leadership with a Complexity perspective. They shares some of the key lessons Scrum Masters must be aware of, and apply to their work. 

In this segment, we talk about the importance of learning to deal with anxiety; how anxiety can drive decision making; how plans are often little more than anxiety reducing tools with little contribution to deliberate decision making. 

Learning from academic research and publications

Kjell de Ruiter’s track focuses on highlighting and translating some of the academic research that has direct implications for Agile adoption, and for Scrum Masters. His work is about collecting models and insights from the research that has already been done, but often not shared in the Agile community. Kejll and his guests share how metaphors are critical tools in communication in an interview with Judy Rees, and what we have learned about the state of Agile Coaching at the moment.
