New Goodies Coming to OnDemand!

Friends, do you have trouble finding the ketchup in your own refrigerator? Do you require Google Maps just to get to the corner store?

Artifact Passing for Agile Teams

August isn’t officially “Agile Month”, but with so much of my attention focused on the Agile2012 conference held a couple weeks ago, that’s what it feels like.  So I’ve been blowing the dust off my trusty ol’ Scrum Master hat and thinking more about team processes lately.  When teams decide to go agile, they do so with […]
