Abstract

​

NewsUK has undergone an agile transformation to improve the speed, efficiency, and effectiveness of how the teams deliver and improve delivery predictability.

 

A massive cultural and mindset shift had to be addressed in how the organisation approached communication, collaboration, transparency, and planning. In a short space of time, performance improved by creating a shift in leadership understanding, support and active involvement, introducing quarterly planning and a disciplined portfolio management.

 

Kirsteen King and Gill Bennet from News UK and Vikram Jain from JCURV will share the journey they went on in order to achieve results over a 12 month period, key learnings and insights.
