Conference Presentations

	Team Leadership Is Like Big Band Drumming Slideshow Sometimes we get a little stuck. It does happen. Work is at the same place, with the same people, and the same problems. The fresh perspective we seek is overcome by everyday demands and eludes us once again. John Ryskowski says that one path to a fresh perspective is to experience...	John Ryskowski
	Going Agile at Scale: A Mindset Transformation of Global Proportions Slideshow How do you successfully transform 700 people working on one product? The answer: Give them ownership. Value people over process. This requires that leaders learn how and when to step back—and when to step up. In the past eight years, the Veritas NetBackup organization had tried three agile...	Julie Urban and Jeff Byron
	Which Agile Scaling Framework Is Best? Slideshow Choice can be a wonderful thing—when you’re buying a car and research abounds to help you decide. But when selecting the best agile scaling framework for your organization, choice can be downright intimidating and costly. SAFe, Scrum of Scrums, DAD, LeSS, or SSwS? There is a lot at stake.	Tom Weinberger
	From Unclear and Unrealistic Requirements to Achievable User Stories Slideshow "What do you want the system to do?" can be a loaded question for agile teams.

Instead, you may have the “big picture” product...	Jamie Lynn Cooke
	Continuous Integration as a Development Team’s Way of Life Slideshow Continuous integration (CI) is a buzzword in software development today. We know it means “run lots of builds,” but having a continuous integration pipeline opens up opportunities well beyond making sure your team's code compiles. What if this pipeline could improve everything from the...	Melissa Benua
	A Case Study in Metrics-Driven DevOps Slideshow It seems impossible for a DevOps team to even attempt planning its work. The team deals with customers’ never-ending requests and constantly-changing priorities. And don’t forget those unfriendly infrastructure errors that always seem to show up at the worst possible time. Best to live...	Ben Vining
	DevOps Is Only Half the Story to Delivering Winning Products Slideshow Before the DevOps approach gained serious traction, development and operations largely worked in isolation and sometimes in opposition. As a community, we are starting to make strides in integrating these two practices to deliver products with more efficient systems and processes. However...	Jody Bailey
	How to Do Kick-Ass Software Development Slideshow Software development is hard― keeping developers, testers, designers, product managers and other stakeholders in sync and working on the right things at the right time. Building the systems that customers care about and delivering high-quality code fast are challenges every development...	Sven Peters
	What Hollywood Can Teach Us about Software Testing Slideshow If we observe the world through the lens of software testing, we discover that there are lessons all around us we can apply on the job, and one venue that’s packed with these tidbits is the movie theater. Bernie Berger gives examples of a few unlikely yet credible lessons from the language...	Bernie Berger
	Use Feature Flags for Clean Deployments Slideshow Software teams want to move faster and deliver features to end users sooner. Continuous delivery and DevOps promise to deploy quickly. However, pushing faster and deploying more often increase the risk of breaking—and subsequent downtime. Edith Harbaugh finds that a feature flagging system...	Edith Harbaugh
