HeleneGidley Position Paper

What's your experience coaching teams toward being Agile?
I have been working with Agile teams since 2003 and most recently mentoring teams on Agile practices. My blog entry at http://www.hsgconsultingllc.com/?cat=2 for my thoughts on a recent engagement.


What do you plan to learn /explore at this conference?
While I've been working in Agile for a while, it does surprise me how much people say they are Agile, or want to move in that direction, yet still take less than a full-fledged approach towards the transformation. I'd like to hear from others what they have experienced and what results they have had. From this I'd like to learn what things have worked & what hasn't for others.
Additionally, I feel like Agile methodologies are becoming the next big buzzword in software development. I'd like to meet others in the field and build relationships that will help us all coach and mentor others in their journeys towards better practices.
Oh, and one more area of exploration, I've used Agile principles on non-IT related projects. I'd like to find out who else has done this and to share our thoughts on this application of a methodology that embraces change to help businesses in areas beyond IT projects.

How do you plan to contribute?
To ask questions, participate, mingle, chat, network, draw, write, speak, sing (well, not really I can't carry a tune to save my life), etc.
