- The principles of Agile working and
- How this translates into Agile processes and a lifecycle model.
She will differentiate between development and project implementation and show how change management is a critical element of effective Agile working.
Melanie will also use examples to show how Agile can be applied to all sorts of initiatives and that it is not just for IT.
