Mikko Kaijärvi, Lead Agile Coach at ABB
A Practical Approach to Apply Agile to Hardware Projects
Many companies struggle with how to apply agile mindset and methods to the hardware part of the company. The basic approach we have is organic growth of Agile practices in HW development. Topics will be engineering practice changes for faster feedback loops, self-organization with HW teams and production as part of HW development. Other important parts are management, culture, psychological safety and managing complexity. Mikko will present how this has been done at ABB, which approach they have chosen and what worked and what didn´t work so well.
Mikko Kaijärvi has, during his past twenty years in new product creation, had the chance to work in Global environment with both industrial and consumer products. Growing from individual contributor to project management to team leading to line management has given him a well-rounded view on many aspects of NPD (new product development). Taking an idea and running with it all the way to the customer is the most fun he has ever had.
Having been designing products that sell in millions a year is something to be proud of for sure but just as great has been able to help and support teams to reach similar goals and to see them flourishing with great challenges and turning them to opportunities.
New inspires him. Mikko likes finding new ways of doing things better, be it at design or team management or cultural change in organization. He feels that at this point even though he feels he has accomplished a lot there are still many new challenges to be overcome in the future. He hopes to continue working with skilled, competent and motivated colleagues with whom to drive results.

Visual Workplace/Visual Management: Key to a Diverse, Creative, and Contributing Enterprise
In a time of continued disruption and uncertainty, companies need a proven process for stabilizing the workplace, achieving and sustaining improvement outcomes, and growing spirited, creative and contributing employees. Workplace visuality, the universal language of performance, is that process. There is no work environment it cannot make safer, smarter, and more reliable and effective—and no work culture, however diverse, it cannot make more engaged, equitable, and inclusive.
Join Gwendolyn Galsworth, leading visual workplace expert, as she shares key elements of workplace visuality, shows dozens of visual solutions, and shows you why the visual workplace is indispensable to establishing flow, dramatically improved KPIs and a transformed work culture. (You will also learn the telling difference between workplace visuality and visual management.) Let the workplace speak.
