Joakim Karlsson
Joakim has been working with software development for fifteen years - both as a software developer and as manager for software development teams. He likes to focus both on the technical and the interpersonal aspects of creating software together. He has worked with helping teams improve their development techniques and ability to produce quality software that meets the need of all stakeholders. This includes coaching teams in design techniques as well as helping teams communicate in a more effective manner. His goal is to recreate the feeling you have when you're part of a project that works. When the team is buzzing with activity. When all stakeholders pull in the same direction. When you use what you learn about the product, and about the working methods you use, in your quest to constantly improve. When you're, quite simply, having fun

Reactions might range from ignoring you to getting downright angry. I firmly believe that no matter how sound your idea is, you need to consider the mechanisms of change and resistance if you want a successful transformation.
In this presentation I discuss change, the patterns that seems to be common to successful transformation efforts, and how you can use that knowledge to create real, sustainable change in your organization.
