I liked Anderson's query at the end: when people make proposals to this conference for these new ideas... will we let them in? or not?
Good question.
This is really 4 or 5 presentations in one. Extremely dense and high quality. David explains the real values behind the Agile manifesto (he "modelizes" Agile), compares Agile with Lean, then sells Kanban and finally CMMI. Definitely fine food for thought. I had to listen to it twice to start getting the key messages. Highly recommended presentation for whoever wants to understand where Agile is/should be heading.
Great talk! Would love to work with a David and others to develop these principles, practices, and community and take them to new areas of innovation, leadership and management outside the software practice. Please see a 90% Transcript of David Anderson's Future Directions for Agile.
