Creating Agile Organizations with Dave Dame

David Dame is the Director of Accessibility at Microsoft, one of the largest tech companies in the world known primarily for its Windows operating system and its vast array of software and work tools. As Director, Dave works across all levels of the company’s senior leadership team, ensuring their accessibility program outlines the optimal experience for people with disabilities across their various product ecosystems.

Dave joins me to describe what AGILE is and how it positively impacts the customer experience. He shares his thoughts on the work culture and how leaders can build an efficient and harmonious working environment through AGILE. He discusses the hurdles that may prevent AGILE from reaching its full potential in an organization. He explains why the industry we see today will not resemble the one we’ll see in the next few years. Dave also describes how leaders can connect with their employees at a human level.

"When you get AGILE out of the technology and into the business, you're really getting where it's more powerful." - Dave Dame
