Learning from Agile in the Army
45 Mins
Talk
Beginner
The military has a crucial place in the origins of the IT industry, but is there more we could learn from the world’s most effective fighting force? The military is focused on delivering results, and has been doing so for hundreds of years. That being said, it is not without its pitfalls, and not every practice will translate over well into an Agile environment. During this talk, I will use both my military and Agile experience to show you how you can improve your Agile process, or even start the transition to Agile. I’ll cover topics such as valuing role over rank, driving success from quantitative results, improved retrospective formats, and more.
