This month we are happy to welcome back one of the founding members of the NYC ALT.NET User Group from way back in 2008: Dan Berlin!
Topic
Agile development has been around long enough that most major organizations have begun to use it on their project teams, but many have struggled to scale the techniques to large teams. The Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe) bridges the gap from small teams to large scale development efforts while also merging technical best practice with Agile project management best practice. Created by Dean Leffingwell and other Agile leaders, SAFe is really starting to gain industry traction.
Dan will provide an overview of the framework and touch on some of the more "technical" aspects of SAFe that make it appealing to engineers and architects, while leaving plenty of time for Q&A and focused discussion.
