About this Presentation

Agile methods are proven on small teams. But really…almost any process works with a team of one. As team size increases, however, challenges mount. How do we organize the team? How do I manage Sprints across the teams? Is it possible to conduct effective code reviews? What are the essential practices that maintain team unity?

In this session, we'll focus on proven practices that help large software development teams in excess of 100 developers maintain their agility. We'll explore the importance of automation, dealing with geographically dispersed teams, and the need for transparency. You'll walk away with actionable advice and a better understanding of what it takes to create a development process that scales to large teams and is sustainable long-term.
