The 2019 State of Remote Work report has highlighted the fact that remote work is not a trend but here to stay. The 13th State of Agile report states that 97% of organizations responded saying they are practice agile development methodologies. So it's safe to say that both remote work and agile practices are not going away any time soon. Have you ever worked from home and at the end of the day felt like you got absolutely nothing done? Do you sometimes feel like your productivity goes down when you work remote? Are you curious about the people who claim working remote has improved their productivity to achieve this? Come to this talk to learn my tips and tricks that I use to help me be a very productive remote agile team member. Paul has been building software for over 20 years and over half of that time, he has worked remote. He will share some of his great productivity tips on how you can be the best remote agile team member.]]>

In the software industry, it’s common to be on a project with an aggressive timeline. Even if the schedule was correct, plans don’t always go the way you expect and become off track. Teams end up working more extended hours, try to add people to the project or make other heroic efforts to try and “save the day’ and finish on time. In my experience, rarely have those efforts worked and when it did, the team was so burned out it took several weeks to get motivated to tackle another project. There should be a better way to complete projects on time, so teams feel a sense of accomplishment and are excited to take on the next project. In this session, we discuss three key behaviors you can do with your team, unlocking a better way to work to help the team succeed.]]>

Many agile coaches think it’s a prerequisite to co-locate the team in order to be successful. However, what if you have remote team members or are considering adding them to your team but afraid it will only slow you down. As more people choose to work remotely it will be important to learn how to be a part of or lead successful remote agile teams. We will discuss three mindset changes that are critical to helping your team, regardless of location, implement agile and lean principals to help your team be a successful agile team. Learning Outcomes: Learn about the four remote team types and some of the traps and how to overcome them with your team. Learn how to use the agile mindset of encouraging and managing for change to encourage the team to experiment with everything so they can decide when to change. Learn how to encourage your team to emphasize communication and collaboration and come up with ways the team can do that effectively with remote teams. Learn how to use agile principles and adapt them to your team.]]>

Unit testing is a great way to help you improve your code and your team. It allows you to make changes or refactor your code to improve it with some confidence that your changes did not break a project. I am sure many of us realize the benefits of unit testing but find it difficult to do when working with a CMS or platform that you don't have full control over. This is the situation we will be discussing and I will show you how I have added unit tests to my customizations that are built on top of Umbraco.]]>

This will be a hands-on lab to show you how to create a multi-platform app using the XPlatformCloudKit framework (https://github.com/winappkits/XPlatformCloudKit). The XPlatformCloudKit was built by Paul DeCarlo (http://pjdecarlo.com/) and the team behind webappkits (https://github.com/winappkits). In this presentation, you will be shown how to build a Windows 8 and Windows 8 Phone app which can retrieve data from any combination of RSS feeds, local XML files, or Azure mobile Services. This will be an interactive presentation demonstrating the power of the XPlatformCloudKit and how you might use a portable class library to build both a Windows 8 and Windows 8 Phone app.]]>
