At one time or another, tired from a long day of work, we have all attended an Agile presentation that we were really excited about — only to have our excitement quickly fade when the presenter opened by explaining what an iteration was, leaving us to wonder if it would be rude to walk out.
I can’t guarantee it won’t happen again, but I can guarantee it won’t happen this Thursday (3/25/10). For the first time COHAA is putting together a presentation geared towards the Intermediate to Advanced Agilist. If you are interested in having Agile events beyond Agile 101 here in Columbus, please do your part by joining us this Thursday, and forwarding this to any of your fellow Agilists. As usual, the event is free, and dinner will be provided.
*Bonus: Rubber Chickens will be provide for anyone who asks questions such as, “What is a backlog?”
