Transcendence and Passing Through the Gate
59:24
Summary
"Being Agile" is a state of mind achieved when the practitioner has transcended Agile practice (phase three of agile according to Kent Beck). This presentation will show how following agile values, ideas, and practices lead the practitioner to the threshold of transcendence. We will also talk about how to take the final step: from "Doing Agile" to "Being Agile!"

a great presentation indeed, but I did not like the part about "compared to somebody in 3rd or 2nd world country..... there's a way to be distinctively different that's to be agile". does this mean that people in 3rd/2nd world countries cannot be distinctive or cannot become agile!
that's I find a very strange comment from the presenter.
