In between the larger organizational goals and the day-to-day work of Development Teams, exists a vacuum. The thing about any vacuum is that it has an innate need to be filled. If we are not careful, this 'Product Management Vacuum' will get filled with meaningless busy work and extensive task management. Being busy without clear direction. This session introduces the 3 V's -- Vision, Value, Validation -- as a way to get out in front of this problem.]]>

The disconnect between the delivery organization and the business is prevalent in the software industry. Somewhere along the line, the real vision behind our projects gets lost. We all know it. Can better metrics help? This session examines some common and not-so-common metrics and introduces Evidence Based Management as a guide for continuously measuring your business goals, aligning them with your software development efforts, and then deciding what to do next. ]]>

We now acknowledge that complete upfront requirements is an impossible mission. Agile approaches have emerged as a way to manage the creation of systems that can never be completely defined and are certain to change. But what about architecture and design for these systems? How much is the right amount? How do you plan for emergent design? What is the architect's role on an agile project? Topics include: - Role of the agile architect - Agile design - Keeping change easy - Reducing technical risks - Capturing non-functional and technical requirements and constraints - Dealing with technical debt - Addressing architectural concerns within the Scrum framework - Tests – They're not just for finding bugs - Architecture anti-patterns]]>

Whether you are a professional trainer or trying to bring agility to your organization or team, you no doubt have encountered the difficulty in conveying agile values and principles. Learning practices and techniques is easy in comparison; You learn by doing. But how do you teach a philosophy or mindset? How do you 'do' a value? Through trial and error, through hundreds of classes, through training thousands of agile practitioners, we have put together a set of best practices (and not-so-best practices) for delivering powerful agile learning experiences. Participants in this session will walk away with a toolkit they can put to use the next day. The toolkit will include scenario simulations, learning games, discussion generators, reenforcement exercises, student patterns, common pitfalls, and other activities to help you get out of the way and let the learning happen.
