Let's face it, the implementation of a pure Agile methodology is hard to attain. Project teams are distributed, resources not fully committed, and there are so many tools to support collaboration it can be hard to know what will work best.

This Webinar explores applying the Utopian concepts of Agile software development in a hybrid IT Organization. Topics include:

  • team make-up,
  • effective practices,
  • tooling,
  • process, and
  • workload balancing.
