Description

Say, have you gone to iTunes or Stitcher to give us a review? It takes so little time and would sure help us a lot. Thanks!

A 100% Skype-based episode! Vic is joined by Brett Palmer (@brett_palmer), Zach Bonaker (@ZachBonaker) and first-time guest Alan Dayley (@DayleyAgile).

Today our heroes discuss the following topics:

• Is “Quality Assurance” an inhibitor to developing with agility?
• Scenario: You are an experienced ScrumMaster just joining a new and dysfunctional team. What is your first goal?
• “Falling off the cliff” scenarios
• Common problem: The team does not update their progress on tasks and user stories in the electronic tool. So?
• The Director says “Plan for more points in your next Sprints or we won’t get all this work done.”
• Explaining coaching to a mentoring organization
