Project Success

It's been a while

Well it's been a while since I posted anything on here and there are some things worth catching up on.

I am now the Midlands regional coordinator for Agile Legends. There is a Linked In group for both Agile Legends and for the Midlands region specifically. I'm looking to organise a initial get together for the Midlands Legends in December, so if you are a Midlands based Agile Legend and you would like to know more, please join the Linked In group.

We've recently been working on agile training and adoption with a company who develop embedded software. This is going really well with the first team showing some really good signs of understanding agile practices and why/when to use them. We will shortly be starting work with a second team.

Through our work in the field of embedded software, I have also made some interesting contacts which could lead to co-authorship of a book on Scrum - watch this space.

The Agile Awards was a good night out - I really enjoyed seeing some old friends and having a chance to catch up with them over a drink or two. I'd also like to thank all of those who joined me at the Project Success table for a thoroughly enjoyable evening.

Finally, I'm off to the CBI Conference on Monday. It should be an interesting day with good opportunities to see how the CBI are looking to help private sector investment improve the current economic situation.
