Agile Change – Engagement Is Not Rocket Science, It’s Neuroscience

Alex Yates

Most change management approaches are check-the-box exercises that don’t change anyone’s behavior. Few agile transitions get past wagile (hybrid waterfall-agile). To avoid these outcomes, Alex Yates has designed for people who lead agile delivery efforts a sticky and simple framework that is less art and more science. Prepare for a fun, interactive session that will shift how you see Change and show you how to produce true people-first results.

About the Speaker:
Alex Yates is currently Assistant Vice President of Change Management at Genpact. He’s worked in senior change transformation and communication roles with companies in the media, healthcare, and consumer goods industries, and in Major League Baseball. Alex loves learning about AI, neuroscience, and human-centered design, as well as travelling and cliff jumping.

One change: we now restrict some content to logged-in members. This content includes summary information about past Monthly Meetings, video content, and member polls.

What hasn’t changed? Membership to Agile New England is still free. No strings attached.
