About this event:

The world is on fire! And the question is: Are we on fire as well?

In the opinion of Jutta Eckstein, coach, consultant, speaker and author, it's time to examine how agility can help reduce energy consumption and ensure greater - environmental, social, and economic – sustainability.

The good news is, that we can start with our daily work; for example, by informing the user how to use our products in a resource-efficient manner or by monitoring that the product is not unintentionally amplifying existing biases. Jutta believes we have to shift our conversations so we really understand what is our contribution for more sustainability.

Jutta has written several books on agile development. In her most recent book, she has pair-written with John Buck on Company-wide Agility with Beyond Budgeting, Open Space & Sociocracy (dubbed BOSSA nova). In this work, she learned that being agile comes with an expectation for (environmental, social, and economic) sustainability. This shifted her focus toward how agility can help increasing sustainability.

Curious about how Agile can serve our local communities? I am interviewing Jutta about her Wicked Problems to help make transparent where Agilists can serve and support our local communities.
