I believe in supporting the community, so I try to speak at communityevents (like this or the Agile Tour in Luxembourg) when asked, andgenerally without charge. This is a free event, so they are asking for donations to offset the costs of the event. Please contribute!
Just before the Agile Day, Alberto Brandolini and I are organizing a one day Scrum Workshop to help people discover Scrum:
Scrum today is becoming the leading agile management practice, helpingcompanies to develop software more effectively, helping developers toimprove their technical skills, and helping everyone to have more funon the job. But what is Scrum? How does it work? How does it relate toother practices such as Lean or Extreme Programming? And mostimportantly, why does it work?
This one day workshop is particularly geared to:
- Developers and Testers who want to apply Extreme Programming or other Agile Practices at work
- Managers and Project Managers who want their software teams to be more effective (and are willing to change themselves to achieve this goal)
- Business Analysts, Business Development Managers and other customer roles who need software that meets their objectives
Language: Mixture of English and Italian. I speak both.
