Agile methodologies such as eXtreme Programming and SCRUM are hot topics today — and they are also hot targets. When things go wrong on an agile project, it’s far too convenient to blame the methodology, and not the people charged with implementing it correctly. In this talk Erik will discuss the most common reasons a team may fail when trying to execute a project using an agile methodology. He will cover how to learn from the mistakes of others, and avoid repeating new mistakes of your own. This talk is based on experiences Clinton Begin and Erik have made on projects at ThoughtWorks.
