Document Actions
The ifPeople team is busy preparing for next month's annual Plone conference in Washington, D.C. Last month, we announced that ifPeople's co-founder and CEO Christopher Johnson will be giving two presentations. We're pleased to announce that Project Manager and Scrum Master Gerry Kirk will also be a presenter at this year's conference.
His session - "High Performing Teams: What's the Secret Sauce?" - will draw upon his experience managing dispersed teams for ifPeople and his knowledge of the Scrum process.
Description:
What makes the difference between an average team and a high performing team? Scrum, an Agile software development framework can enable teams to perform 5x better than their Waterfall competitors, according to Jeff Sutherland, co-founder of Scrum. Learn how a simple framework can improve communications with clients, surface issues earlier and make teams more productive. If you are using Scrum already, learn how to assess your team's Scrum-ness. A brief tour of Agile tools built by Plone solution providers is included at no extra charge.
