The shift from industrial thinking to digital product thinking is profound. Tools and structures designed to support one often work directly against the other. Great industrial leadership does not transfer to great digital product leadership. So we tend to think of them as being in conflict. Agile-in-the-small - a single team with a single product - is all about digital product thinking. Agile-in-the-large is a very different thing. In this talk, Daniel and Anna show how combining industrial and digital thinking is the key to achieving autonomy with alignment, and they offer pragmatic advice and useful tools for achieving agility at scale. **Attendees:** <a href="https://gotopiachicago2021.slack.com/archives/C01UFC9P7GU" target="_blank">Join the #teams channel on Slack to send your questions to Daniel and Anna</a>
