Claire Boonstra
When everything changes: back to the universally human
Claire Boonstra, a former tech entrepreneur and an expert in the field of human development, leadership and education (including œ Operation Education) takes you on a quest for the universally human - in which we find important clues for how we can proceed.
Carl Fikenscher
Bestuurder 'in ruste' bij Zelfstandig
Life is learning. Learning is growing. These are my motives in my work and my life. In connection with organizations and especially the people who form those organizations.
The core of this is the development of personal leadership of everyone in the organization. In education this means getting the best out of yourself in the service of the children entrusted to us.
Personal mottos: "Trust is the basis" and "Humor lit".
Nils Oud
Agile Transformation Coach, Co-Owner INCREMENTOR
We live nowadays in a fast-changing world. Consequently, attained knowledge outdates fast. Many of the jobs that exist today, will no longer exist tomorrow. And tomorrow will bring new jobs that we cannot even imagine today.
It is therefore eminent that our education system should adapt. Next to the traditional subjects, schools should pay more attention in developing future-based competencies and character qualities, such as creativity, collaboration, curiosity and more.
‘Scrum in the classroom’ provides a solution for this. Nils has done an intervention study and wrote a thesis to scientifically support this claim. Learn about how Scrum can be applied in your classroom. Learn why teachers never want to go back to their old way of teaching; learn about how students enjoy obtaining control over their own way of learning.

Djoro Loupatty
Tante Lean
When I was a teacher and manager in various educational organizations, I discovered that we have quite different standards for ourselves as teaching staff than for our pupils and students.
We cooperate little or not at all, which means that after a few years we are stagnant in our development. The fun and inspiration in the work then diminish. We go out and can no longer inspire ourselves, each other and our pupils and students. That is an eternal sin.
I started to study how successful, sparkling, and inspiring organizations organize their work. That search brought me to the methods "lean" and "agile". At first, I thought it was hip and trendy, but it turns out decades old and proven working organizational principles. I have been applying them to and with educational organizations for several years now. And it works here too. It sets teams in motion, gives focus, and converts plans into action. In short: it brings fun and success.
When like-minded people come together...
Tante Lean & Incrementor
Incrementor and Tante Lean started their partnership some years ago and this has now translated in a partnership, with focus on spreading agility in the classroom.

Agile Amsterdam 2018
Again the media was unanimous:
'Congratulations for the organizer of the congress, Nils Oud (Agilist at Incrementor). As far as I am concerned, he has set up a 'boutique' conference: quirky, small-scale and of high quality. The well-organized and wonderful diverse group of invited guests from different countries managed to inspire each other thanks to the top speakers and the mutual contacts' - Saskia Aalberts, Frankwatching

Open Space
We included an Open Space
The Open Space was ideal for people to connect on a more intimate level. They share the same passion for a topic, real issues were discussed and connections are made for for life. At the same time we ran a series of talks parallel for those who did not want to participate in the Open Space.
Gamification
More fun and learning through gamification
This year we added some gamification elements. A fun way to learn new things and to take away for use at your own company!
Master Classes
Deep enrichment
The Master Classes were again very populair. Acquired knowledge and interest from the event are further deepened. The aim is always for the participants to take away stuff that can be applied in their own company. Value you can turn into practice!
Donations
And again we donated more than 2500 Euro to charity funds!
E.g. Britta Sluis donated to Stichting MORRIS, and Jurriaan Kamer to KWF kankerbestrijding. More donations can be found on the Community Page.
Agile Amsterdam 2017
Agile Amsterdam truly nourishes and develops the Agile mindset.
What did our audience say?
We received a score of 4.5 out of 5! (150 respondents)
'An inspiring event that I did not want to miss out on!' - Gamebasics'Great, provocative, learning and very agile event' - Renze J. Klamer'High-energy and inspiring event on a beautiful location, with great speakers and even better attendees' - Arthur von KriegenberghA selection of our 2017 speakers
Jeff Sutherland, Niels Pflaeging, Jurgen Appelo, Spotify and more
The theme was Agile Leadership. Our general consensus is that the companies are still run top-down with little agility, while the staff executing the work are really trying to work agile. This leads to contradictions.
