In our rapidly changing world economy where markets demand instant gratification, internal systems look for fast cost-cutting, and tilting national economies seek new footing, many software and IT organizations have adopted Agile methods as a way to institutionalize innovation, quality and delivery. They want what an Agile approach provides--the nimbleness that responds to change and offers earlier returns on investment. And, Agile is no silver bullet. Nothing is. So, what?s behind the buzzwords and hype of Agile software development? How can leaders ensure success and ROI when installing and executing Agile? In this session, two thought leaders in the Agile community will guide you through an interactive experience of what it means for the enterprise when the development organization "goes Agile".

This training opportunity is funded, in part, with Employer Workforce Training Funds administered by the Oregon Department of Community Colleges and Workforce Development.
