IT projects are failing at a rate of 25%, and 45% of our projects are challenged for being late, over-budget, or providing less than required features and functions. Unfortunately this has been a habitual problem for IT and more importantly it has been a source of conflict and contention between IT and the business community we serve. Our business community, more than ever, demands speed and flexibility in taking products to market. As a result, approximately 35% of IT organizations have adopted or are in some form of adoption of agile practices and agile software development.
In this presentation we will discuss the following:
Common Agile Misconceptions
Why Should the CIO or CTO Care About Agile?
What Does the Business Community Need to Know About Agile?
Barriers to Successful Enterprise Agile Adoption
Many individuals want to move forward with the adoption of agile practices at their company but are either meeting resistance from others within their organization or they are unsure of how to sell the benefits of agility to their constituents and stakeholders.
In this presentation we will discuss how to “sell” agile and address some of the common misconceptions that both your management and customers may have when trying to transition to agile.
These common misconceptions and concerns are:
Agile teams don’t do long-range planning or estimating
Agile doesn’t work for matrixed teams or organizations
Agile doesn’t work for non co-located teams
Agile expects too much involvement from the customer
Agile works on a time and materials (T&M) basis
Attend this presentation and begin or revive your road to agile adoption.
Length: 60 Minutes
Attendees: VPs, Directors, Managers, Customers and Development Team

Many companies have employed the “Big Requirements Up-Front (BRUF)” or have found themselves mired in producing piles of paper to only have these documents out-of-date and not well understood by both the customer and the development team.
In this presentation we will discuss:
• How user stories are different from traditional approaches to requirements and how they combat “BRUF” and reams of documentation;
• Leveraging user stories to capture the intent of our customer;
• The anatomy of a user story;
• The three major elements of user stories (Card, Conversation, Confirmation).
Attend this presentation and learn how to successfully employ user stories for your requirements needs.
