Questioning Agile Stage

Producer: Jon Bach
Assistant: Scott Barber

The Questioning Agile stage is dedicated to experience reports or points-of-view that challenge notions commonly associated with Agile.

We’ll encourage speakers who:

• have tried Agile processes on a project to find that they didn’t work
• consider themselves in the a new camp known as "post-agile"
• can talk about how they have taken processes or techniques that are commonly labeled or associated as "Agile" and changed them into something that would not be considered "Agile".
