How to create a safe environment – practically
Marcin Floryan (Spotify)
Regardless of the outcomes we are aiming for, the journey can only be successful and mutually beneficial when people are engaged, honest and authentic. As Google discovered in their Aristotle project, the fundament on which to create such a fruitful environment, is psychological safety. Yet it’s impossible to simply instill safety overnight. Join the session to hear how we worked, in practice, on enhancing the sense of psychological safety for everyone in the Playback Tribe at Spotify.

Radical innovation
Anders Haugeto (Iterate)
Agility is not about process and tools – it’s about creating positive change. Most successful startups are started by people who had their idea while working for their former employer. Going solo was their least favorable option. What had happened, if the company they worked for had been able to support their mission? Radical ideas is a path to next level agility. It’s time to level up. Established companies have strengths the startup ecosystem can only dream of. Nothing creates lasting change more than new, successful businesses.
