AgileBoise presents the first Agile Workshop - Reaching New Heights!
Jason Dean
The local chapter of the Boise APLN group, AgileBoise.org, has put
together an Agile Workshop Series and you're invited to attend!
This purpose of this workshop series is to present the principles and
possibilities of Agile software development and management. Our goal
with the first workshop is to introduce Agile from a Leadership as
well as Engineering perspective for those new to Agile. Presenters
will discuss Agile concepts and relate how different companies in the
Boise valley have used it successfully to deliver real business value!
Upcoming workshops will provide progressively more information and
depth into various aspects of Agile and its use. I encourage you to
come and join us for a great afternoon of learning and connecting to
the Agile community in Boise.
