Bogdan is Agile Consultant at Zühlke Engineering. He has a education background in mechanical engineering and prior to turning to Agile coaching he was (and to an extent still is) a passionate embedded engineer that was exposed to Defense / Armament, Automotive and Medical industry in his career. His current focus is in supporting teams and companies on their Agile Journeys and is currently an active Professional Scrum Trainer (PST) with Scrum.org and SAFe Program Consultant (SPC) with Scaled Agile in good standing.

Joking referring to himself as Geek of all Trades Bogdan enjoys everything coming with that title. Besides RPGs like D&D 3.5 and D&D 5, he is a SF buff and WH40k fluff fan. Having an extreme prejudice against idle time he likes juggling, shooting, Rubik’s type twisty puzzles, escape rooms and anything requiring quick-wit, focus and manual dexterity. Latest learning path is exploration of Gestalt and Psychodrama psychotherapeutic modalities.

Title: Antifragile Networks: Building Resilience in Agile Organizations via ANT

Agile organizations are complex, and traditional org charts often fail to capture the entire picture. Organisations actually exist in interconnected networks of people, tools, roles, and practices. Rigid structures often mask fragility that is revealed when the first real stress is applied.

This hands-on workshop reframes agility through the lens of Actor–Network Theory (ANT). Instead of only “bouncing back” (resilience), we’ll explore how organizations can actually grow stronger under stress.

Together, participants will:

• Learn basic concepts of Actor Network Theory (ANT)

• Map their current environment networks, including both human and non-human actors (artifacts, tools, CI/CD pipelines, dashboards, unspoken rules).
• Share and discuss, and get a systemic perspective, potentially revealing fragile patterns
• Brainstorm on redesign networks—events, interactions, artifacts

By the end of the session, participants will have a rough draft of their environment (at their level of granularity), and we will try to map and create a pattern library of both fragile and antifragile practices that we observe. Expect systems thinking, group mapping, reflective practices, sharing, and plain vanilla fun.
