In this fireside chat hosted by the Agile Business Consortium in collaboration with Agile Sherpas, we’ll explore insights from the 2026 State of Agile Marketing Report and what the latest research reveals about high-performing marketing teams.

Agile marketing is helping teams do more than move faster. It’s enabling them to become more strategic, collaborative and resilient in the face of constant change.

In this fireside chat hosted by the Agile Business Consortium in collaboration with Agile Sherpas, we’ll explore insights from the 2026 State of Agile Marketing Report and what the latest research reveals about high-performing marketing teams.

Drawing on new research from the 2026 State of Agile Marketing Report by AgileSherpas, we’ll explore what high-performing marketing teams are doing differently, and why it matters now.

The conversation will highlight how Agile marketers build stronger cross-functional trust, focus more consistently on high-impact work, and create space for strategic thinking instead of remaining stuck in reactive execution. We’ll also explore how leading teams are using experimentation, testing and learning to respond to uncertainty, including in their adoption of AI.

Join us for a practical, insight-led discussion on the habits, practices and ways of working that are helping modern marketing teams perform at a higher level.
