Engineering, DevOps, IT, Marketing, ...you name it, there is a constant battle between going fast and doing it right. Add to the mix the fact that coordination across teams and departments comes at a high transaction cost. How can we minimize the friction?
At my time at LeanKit, we strove to continuously improve our processes across the entire organization. Along the way, we developed FSGD, which we affectionately pronounce "fizz good." FSGD distills many core lean (and agile) principles into an easy-to-remember and easy-to-communicate thinking tool you can use to make better decisions about the work you do.
In this talk, I'll share with you the challenges we faced as we scaled, how we struggled, what we learned, and how we evolved. The goal is for you to walk away with tools and practical processes that will impact you and your team's success.

This sounds like a fun talk :). I might suggest narrowing it a bit and also making the title super clear - Fizz Good made me think instantly of Fizz Buzz and I kept waiting for how it related, which made me a bit confused.
I like this, though: "Shipping Frequent, Small, Good, and Decoupled Value - How We Do It At LeanKit" (or something like that).
The first paragraph needs just a few more touches as well. You're taking a poetic slant on the pressure to ship software but ... there's no conclusion (or a "therefore" to it). I might suggest being super direct:
You can then jump from there after building the tension a bit. How do you go fast/slow?
