Summary: 

Even as a large number of teams are adopting agile methods, some teams are finding this transition to be a big leap. Because each team is unique, they are not able to follow all of the practices "by the book." Each team must customize certain practices to best suit its needs and abilities. Naresh Jain shares his experiences guiding agile teams through this transition. He introduces a technique of coaching teams that employs Goldratt's Theory of Constraints to identify the bottlenecks and issues faced by the team during the agile adoption process. Naresh shows how more experienced agile teams can use the Theory of Constraints technique as a just-in-time practice to eliminate bottlenecks and deliver new knowledge and experience to the team.
