Agile methodologies such as eXtreme Programming and SCRUM are hot topics today – and they are also hot targets. When things go wrong on an agile project, it's far too convenient to blame the methodology.

He'll cover how to learn from the mistakes of others, and avoid repeating new mistakes of your own.
