Consciously Evolving an Agile Team
By now it is common knowledge that it’s just as easy for a team to fail
using agile practices as it is with waterfall or any other method for building
software. So what is the secret to making agile work? How does a team
become "self-directed" and "cross-functional?" The key to our team's success
was to have the core development team change its attitude toward software
development. The team could then work to remove the barriers between
individual developers and then between the developers and the larger project
team.
Aaron has been a developer for the 14 years, and currently works as a Technical Lead and Scrum Master for iLevel in Denver, CO. His interests include spending time playing with his two girls and getting to the mountains for running and mountain biking as much as possible. He purportedly enjoys the collaborative aspects of this “agile†thing. He thinks it may be more than just a fad.
