It's time to be remarkable

I don’t think anyone could have predicted the year we have had and I think most people will agree it has been pretty rubbish. The best thing to have come out of 2020 came from an absolute tragedy. The murder of George Floyd prompted emotion, demonstrations and conversations across the world. In turn it has made companies wake up and realise that we have to do better in aiming for better ethnic diversity in the workplace.

To say this year has been interesting is an understatement, but even prior to the pandemic, questions were being asked by senior partners, general councils, COOs and lawyers in general. ‘Why do we spend so much on new IT systems, tools and applications, yet the benefits are so minimal?’

It is well known that Agile and Scrum emphasize personal interaction and in person teamwork in a very organic and dynamic way. Most organisations will have in-flight projects that have been succeeding in their delivery since inception – based around these core Agile principles.

Suddenly the country shuts down, everyone is sent home and no date is set for when you will next see each other in person.
