 ister/WN_de6WiNT_Qz-rt_xzat7Urw\n\nDear agile community\, we are back with
  agile content and we can't wait to connect with you again!\n\nJoin us for
  the upcoming online meetup "Agile is Inefficient" with Klaus Bucka-Lassen
 \, whom many of you may already know from the agile community in Zürich. 
 This GOTO night is focused on the important difference between efficiency 
 and effectiveness\, and how you make sure to focus on the right one to max
 imise the benefits of Agile.\n\nVenue/Host: Zoom\nCosts: Free of charge\nS
 peaker: Klaus Bucka-Lassen\n\nABOUT THE TALK\nAdmittedly that was a bit of
  a click-bait title\, but it is not too far from the truth. Agility is mai
 nly about effectiveness. Yet\, most corporations which are striving to bec
 ome agile these days\, do it for another reason\, namely to become more ef
 ficient.\n\nBut focusing on efficiency is extremely dangerous!\n\nBig comp
 anies that were praised for their extreme efficiency have gone bust or at 
 least lost a lot of market share in the resent past. Certain management co
 nsultancies continue to sell their customers the same good old formula and
  advise them to become more efficient by optimizing their cost structures.
  These organizations\, therefore\, continue to build the same products\, j
 ust cheaper. But people don't want those products anymore. Blockbuster\, N
 okia\, Blackberry\, text messaging\, the taxi industry\, local coffee shop
 s\, newspapers\, Myspace\, and many more are well known examples.\n\nIn th
 is talk Klaus will explain the difference between the two terms effectiven
 ess and efficiency and show how focusing on the latter can lead to multipl
 e bad consequences that you will probably recognize from organizations in 
 your field.\n\nAGENDA\n\n4:00pm — A welcome to this GOTO Night with Klau
 s Bucka-Lassen\n4:05pm — Klaus Bucka-Lassen will present his subject of 
 the day\n4:30pm — Live Q&A with Klaus Bucka-Lassen\n4:55pm — Event wra

 er science in Denmark in 1996\, Klaus has worked as software developer\, s
 oftware architect\, project manager\, agile trainer and coach for companie
 s in Switzerland\, Denmark\, Germany\, UK\, USA\, Canada\, and Australia.\
 nIn 2001 he discovered the Agile Manifesto and has supported it enthusiast
 ically ever since. Klaus’ real passion is Scrum and as such he has co-tr
 ained Scrum Master courses regularly with Jeff Sutherland\, the father of 
 Scrum. He is a regular speaker at international conferences.\nKlaus has he
 lped major companies from the finance\, pharma\, telecommunication\, IT\, 
 manufacturing\, food\, and oil industry in becoming more agile.\nKlaus bel
 ieves we ask ourselves far to rarely *why* we do certain things – be pre
 pared to answer this exact question\, when discussing with him.\nWhen not 
 being busy with job and family\, he flies planes\, rides motorcycles\, goe
 s skiing\, plays golf and does adventurous trips around the globe. His for
 mula 3 license unfortunately expired a long time ago.\n\n** PLEASE REGISTE
