The Death of Agile Theater: A Musical in Sticky Notes


Welcome to the stage where Scrum Masters become directors, stand-ups feel like matinees, and retros play out like tragic comedies. For too long, teams have been stuck in Agile Theater—acting out the rituals while the real plot (delivering value) gets lost behind the curtains.

In this keynote, we’ll put the spotlight on Agile’s most over-acted clichés and give them the Broadway roast they deserve. But the show doesn’t end there. With a live Miro board as our stage and Miro AI as our co-star, you’ll see how fake Agile characters can transform before your eyes—turning scattered stickies into insights, product briefs, and even prototypes that actually ship.

Expect satire, audience participation, and a few Easter eggs hidden in the scenery. You’ll leave inspired, amused, and ready to bring the curtain down on Agile Theater—so the real work can finally take center stage.

From Mash-up to Mock-up: Turning Wild Ideas into Prototypes with Miro AI

Great products rarely start perfect — they start messy, creative, and fast. In this interactive workshop, you’ll experience the Mash-up Innovation method, generating bold concepts by colliding technologies, human needs, and existing services.

Then, in true Agile spirit, we’ll move from discovery to delivery at speed. Using a live Miro board, you’ll see how raw ideas are instantly shaped by Miro AI into an elevator pitch, a company logo, a clickable app prototype — and even an actionable backlog you can prioritize and refine.

You’ll leave with practical tools to fuel ideation, ways to bring Agile principles into early innovation work, and a hands-on sense of how AI can shorten the path from sticky notes to sprint-ready stories.
