Scrum Day is pleased to announce that leaders from Exact Sciences will be speaking at Scrum Day Madison this year.
“Individuals & Interactions: The Original Agile Edge”
At a time when so many teams are focused on metrics that don't matter and distracted by too many extra rules, it’s easy to lose sight of the value that started it all: people. This session reclaims that focus. Through real-life stories and actionable insights, the speakers will explore how today’s teams can re-center collaboration, creativity, and trust—even as technology evolves faster and becomes increasingly complex.
This discussion will challenge assumptions, spark new ideas, and remind attendees that agility is fundamentally about human connection.
Meet the Speakers
The session will be led by three seasoned Agile professionals from Exact Sciences:
Edie Berteaux, Senior Scrum Master – With over 11 years of experience as a Scrum Master across tech and healthcare, Edie is a trusted leader in building collaborative, value-driven teams. She also co-leads her organization’s Agile Community of Practice, helping others grow their Agile fluency.
Rochelle Kulas, Senior Scrum Master – Known for her background in philosophy and her laser-focus on cutting through process noise, Rochelle brings a bold, human-centered perspective to Agile delivery and organizational change.
Adam Pergande, Senior Scrum Master & Certified Agile Coach – A transformation strategist with over a decade of experience, Adam leads enterprise-level Agile initiatives, emphasizing empathy, culture, and purposeful growth.
Why This Matters
As Agile continues to scale across industries and organizations, this session offers a refreshing call to return to the heart of agility—people and their interactions. Whether you're a Scrum Master, team member, coach, or leader, you’ll leave this session with renewed clarity and practical tools for building trust, deepening collaboration, and leading with intention.
