Special July Meeting: AGILE LEARNING FOR ORG LEADERS

When: Thursday July 24, 2014
Where: Cambridge MA
Who: VALERIE SANTILLO

Description

AGILE LEARNING FOR ORG LEADERS

What is the role of a leader in an Agile Organization? Agile requires a great deal of change in the way we approach, manage and execute delivery. And, while a great deal has been put in place to educate and support team members, Scrum Masters and Product Owners, there isn’t a great deal available to those outside of teams – especially leaders.  This discussion will present a description of an Agile leader for consideration and the results from two organizations:  One who applied the learning, and one who did not.
