Agile Anti-Patterns and How to (Mostly) Avoid Them by Laura Klein
Event Information
About this Event
In this talk, product expert and author Laura Klein shares her research into the most common reasons why many "agile" teams don't seem very agile. She'll also cover why companies don't always reap the expected benefits from their big, costly Agile Transformations.
Laura will share her suggestions for correcting the worst of the anti-patterns and creating a healthier product development process. Come learn how you and your team can improve your agile practices.
Our Diamond sponsor Heap is generously purchasing 30 ebook copies of Laura's book Build Better Products that will be raffled off to attendees!
Laura's talk will be followed by a fireside chat with Lean Product host Dan Olsen and then audience Q&A.
Join us for an informative and engaging session!
Note: Eventbrite registrants will receive an invitation link via email the morning of the webinar.
