agile

agile

1. process

   • vs culture
     • management impedance mismatch
       • are we there yet?
       • project vs financials
         • accounting
         • metrics
   • communication
     • documentation as form of communication

2. technical practices

   • Continuous Integration
   • Unit Tests
   • refactoring
     • technical debt
   • pair development

3. misconceptions

   • no documentation
   • no planning
   • no estimates
   • culture, practices and process
     • "values and principles that allow software development processes to be successful" - you can't separate out the project management aspect from the software engineering aspect - you have to have both to deliver good software. They are two sides to the same coin
     • motivations
       • traditional management
         • historical basis/bias
           • command & control
       • software development as an activity
         • learning as the bottleneck
