With applying agile methodologies comes changes in many aspects of delivering software. And with any change will come a time when something fails. How to keep everyone calm? How to provide practical solutions to prevent people from reverting back to non-agile practices at the first roadblock? Through examples gathered from personal experience and the community, we’ll explore ways to prevent the boat from sinking at the first spilled glass of water.

Sebastien has been a passionate code monkey since his early teens, and has experienced agile first hand, as a developer and as a scrum master, for several years. He’s the director of London-based Caffeine IT, a consulting / contracting company, and writes open-source software in his spare time.

Doors open at 6:30 for a 7 o'clock start.
