Have you heard about Agile and Scrum, but haven’t had the chance to work with such a process? Perhaps your company uses these product development methodologies and you’d like to learn how others are doing it. Are you wondering how Agile can be used in non-software companies? Maybe you’re just wondering what the heck Agile is and what’s the difference between Agile and Scrum. Come learn from a teacher and a master practitioner.
A highly interactive session led by Bachan Anand from Conscires Agile Practices and Yalda Shafihie from RealtyTrac will provide a quick overview of the Agile Manifesto, its values and principles, and connect the dots between Agile and Scrum. They will walk us through the different practices, roles and meetings that make up the Scrum framework. Then, we’ll play an interactive simulation game that demonstrates the mechanics and advantages of using the Scrum methodology for product development. We’ll follow up the game with a debrief and interactive discussion.
