“30-day budget” or no budget. Companies that embrace agility and speed in their operation, don’t lock-in themselves with annual budgets and detailed multi-year strategy plans. What do they do instead? Why (benefits)? And how do they manage without longtime budget?

Christian Fredriksson, Owner of Getability AB – Hardware Development and its Challenges for Business Agility
Although much of agile thinking has its origins in development of physical products, most of its practices has been formed within software development. As agile thinking now spreads to all aspects of product development, including mechanical engineering and outside R&D as well, it presents new challenges when mature engineering practices and all the organizational structures supporting them that have worked so well in the past meets new concepts that was created for a different context.
Christian Fredriksson will talk about common challenges that product development organizations face in their effort to become more agile, some approaches that could be used to overcome them and why some of the ways we have come to talk about agile can even become its biggest impediment to improvement in this context.
Christian Fredriksson started to explore how organizations can find better ways to learn, organize and adapt in complex environments two decades ago in an academic research program and has since then gained practical experience from lean and agile ways of working in different roles and industries.
Since 2012 Christian has mostly been focusing on helping teams and organizations navigate in complexity and become more agile in an advisory and consulting role. He has helped companies within many different industries, such as banking, retail, travel, public sector, e-commerce and product developing companies, especially within hardware and mechatronical development, such as automotive.
Brian Cohn, Partner at Aspire Innovation – Acceleration Events Post COVID
Acceleration events post COVID is a challenge for many today. This presentation treats how to do in-person acceleration events (Market Requirements Event, Planning and Risk Management, 3P) have been a mainstay of lean product development for over a century.
The core principle of Lean is the reduction or elimination of waste. In product development, we often see enormous amounts of waste in ineffective and inefficient work to align on key early project elements – requirements, plans, and product concepts. Acceleration events were developed to bring teams together, make quick progress on these elements, and drive alignment on them. In this talk we’ll review the “traditional” acceleration events (Market Requirements, Planning & Risk Management, and Product & Process Preparation), take a look at how they can be extended to include software requirements and go to market strategy, and how they can be adapted for a virtual or hybrid world.
Brian Cohn is a founding partner at Aspire Innovation where they help clients increase the value of their Product Development Investment. He has 40 years of experience developing industrial, consumer, medical, and defense products and in improving project management and product development practices. Brian is an active member of PDMA, PMI, and the Lean Product and Process Development Exchange. He is helping push the state of the art in marrying Stage-Gate program governance with Agile mindset and practices and in the process for developing products with both complex physical components and stable embedded software.
