Back to Basics - Forward to the Future: What's Next for Central Ohio Agile

For years, the Central Ohio Agile Association (COHAA) has served as a cornerstone for IT and business professionals dedicated to finding better ways to inspire creativity and innovation in the delivery of value. But as workplaces, team dynamics, and expectations shift, our community needs to evolve right along with them.

Are your teams facing new forms of organizational friction?
Are traditional Agile frameworks and practices feeling stale, misunderstood, or bogged down by enterprise bureaucracy?
As the Agile landscape changes, let's discuss how our community can continue to provide meaningful connections, learning, and support.

What to Expect
Join us for a high-engagement, collaborative evening. Attendees will drive the agenda. We are gathering Central Ohio's practitioners, leaders, and change-agents to tackle the real challenges happening in our day-to-day work lives.

Through a focused interactive conversation, we will consider three critical questions:

1. What dysfunctions are you seeing in the workplace right now? Where are teams getting stuck, and what roadblocks are slowing down delivery?
2. What do you actually need from an Agile user group today? How can COHAA serve as a practical, high-value resource for your career and organization?
3. How can we support each other moving forward? What formats, topics, or connections will make showing up worthwhile for you?

500pm-530pm Connecting & Networking
530pm-630pm Community Conversation
630pm Following the conversation, stick around for open networking with fellow local professionals
