 an Berow. As always\, our meetings are free and open to anyone who is inte
 rested\, not just consultants or IEEE members.\n\n"Leadership That Drives 
 Agile Thinking"\n\nAgile returns us to the old value of focusing on custom
 ers’ needs in an environment where people are\nnot simply human resource
 s. Companies are seeing the advantages in time-to-market\, value\, and qua
 lity of\nbecoming Agile. As more and more companies begin their unique Agi
 le journeys\, some falter or fail.\nPoor outcomes can usually be traced to
  management failures\, especially the failure to be personally\ncommitted 
 to the journey.\n\nThis presentation will provide insights into management
 ’s role in an Agile transformation and what you\,\nas consultants outsid
 e of the transformation\, can do to help your clients succeed. Before divi
 ng into the\ncore of the presentation\, we will provide an essential revie
 w of what Agile is and is not.\n\nIf we have time\, we would like to inclu
 de an Agile game to demonstrate a learning technique that helps\npeople un
 derstand the ineffective practices they might use. Please bring a piece of
  paper and pen/pencil\nto the event.\n\nSpeaker(s): AgileN2N\, \n\nAgenda:
