Summary

Join us for an exciting milestone event as Agile Yorkshire ventures beyond Leeds for the first time! We're partnering with the Sheffield chapter of the British Computer Society for a special evening of agile insights and community building. Our journey to Sheffield marks a wonderful opportunity to connect with fellow agile practitioners across Yorkshire. We're particularly grateful to Eva Barabas from the BCS Sheffield chapter, whose work behind the scenes has made this collaboration possible. The evening features two exceptional speakers. We're delighted to welcome Rohit Ratan Mani, who brings his wealth of experience as a certified coach and trainer to share his agile experiences within the pharma sector. Rohit has experience, practical guidelines and valuable lessons learned from implementing agile practices in heavily regulated environments. Joining Rohit is our very own Catherine Bonner, Agile Yorkshire's speaking coach extraordinaire. Catherine will offer an engaging preview of our popular speaker workshop – a free resource we proudly provide to all Agile Yorkshire speakers, past and future, as part of our commitment to nurturing talent within our community. Don't miss this chance to be part of Agile Yorkshire's expanding footprint and connect with like-minded professionals in Sheffield. Come along to share experiences, learn from industry experts, and be part of our agile community!

Programme

Unleashing Business Agility in Pharma Companies
Our presentation details our strategy for assisting clients in enhancing business agility within their clinical operations. We will illustrate our clients' experiences and the significant impact we have had in promoting business agility, improving efficiency, expediting trials, achieving operational excellence and building internal capabilities to empower clients to continue their agility journey independently.

Build and Refine Your Public Speaking Toolkit
Great ideas deserve to be heard. But if we can't communicate them, we'll never get traction. Whether you’re presenting at a tech conference, leading a team meeting, or explaining complex ideas to non-technical audiences, how you communicate matters. In this practical and engaging talk, Catherine Bonner will equip you with the essential tools to speak with confidence, clarity, and impact. No matter if you're preparing for your first talk or refining your stage presence, you'll walk away with a stronger, more versatile public speaking toolkit.
