Agile (Virtual) Forum - 211116

Webinar

"Information radiators in a Distributed Agile environment" by Ernesto Custodio, MBA, Ph.D

The Agile Forum meetings offer an opportunity for professional networking and knowledge sharing with other agile practitioners as well as provide a learning environment for professionals interested in learning about agile techniques. Everyone is welcome to participate.            

Presentation    

Agile encourages a self organizing and empowered method of working. This includes self servicing which is enabled by information radiators. During our days of colocation, it was easy to put up stickies or graphs on a wall and absorb information as we walked down the hallway. In the current days of distributed agile implementation, it is easy for important information to hide. We have to be proactive about generating JIRA reports and using other ways to stay informed.

How can we create visual radiators in a distributed agile environment?

Join us to explore the solutions that will enable your team to work as effective or even more effective than they did when they were colocated. This will include techniques for creating digital artifacts and creating self service information radiating solutions.
