LAST Conference is an affordable, grassroots mini-conference for Lean, Agile, and Systems Thinking practitioners. The schedule encourages participation and interaction via talks, workshops, and activities.

LAST is designed to be a platform for cross-discipline collaboration and the development of professional skills and knowledge. The conference is rooted in the lean and agile movements but has a broader remit than just those domains. We are here to help people level up in their professional capabilities.

We encompass software and product development, user and customer experience, leadership and management, organisational design and strategy, project management and process improvement, and innovation and creativity.

By coming together and sharing our knowledge and experiences with each other, we all learn to be better at work and can continue to grow and help others. We look to draw from a variety of fields and experiences to contribute content for the schedule.

People that come to LAST come from all walks of life and contribute together to grow the capabilities of the Australian workforce.

Together we make all of us better.
