Moment Of LEARNING

17.
#RSGI2017
Our Learnings – Moment to Retrospect &
Introspect
This is not
easy…
We will fail and learn
but never go back to
the old ways
We still don’t
have the right
environment
We need the
right tools…
This is good, but
how can we improve
further
We are now talking the
same language across
the whole organisation
We are still silos
We have more decision
making powers for the
technology stack now
We finally feel a
team now…No more
working on 10
projects with 10% in
each of them
The business still
does not support
us, but still wants
us to be agile

18.
“No matter how may mistakes you
make or how slow you progress,
you’re still way ahead of everyone
who isn’t trying.”
- Tony Robbins
