A solution that opens up the way teams work and offers greater agility to meets the needs of the business.

    We'll look at the most common IT practices and how to address them from business value, technical, and demo perspective. We'll consider how to combine Atlassian products and & marketplace apps to create an ITSM solution that offers a competitive advantage.

  • Atlassian from the top down

    Oceanside D
    Breakout

    What if you had the opportunity to present Atlassian to a group of high-level executives who didn't actually know what Jira did (believe it or not!)? Or what a confluence page delivered? Or what SAFe methodology or even "Business Agility" meant to their organization? How would you explain Atlassian's value to them. What examples could you provide of how our tools impact the strategies and financial outcomes within their companies - helping them focus on innovation and growth.

    Atlassian has been working hard to put together some positioning for exactly these scenarios, which we will share with you during this session. We will also discuss how some of our more recent acquisitions, and new feature releases can be brought into these type of business discussions, without talking technology. But we also need your help - so please come prepared with your own examples of engaging at the c-level, or questions that might help us further evolve this messaging.
