Agile Anti-Patterns
Northern Virginia Software Symposium
Reston · April 24 - 26, 2009
About this Presentation
Agile is wildly popular in some circles and hated in others. How can the same ideas cause such different reactions? Sometimes it's the definition of “agile” and other times it's company culture, but there's usually a good reason when Agile ideas are thrown out on their collective ears.
In this talk we'll discuss what works about Agile, how advocates have tainted the word in many companies, and how you can move great ideas forward successfully on your team.
