Agile pioneers Ron Jeffries and Chet Hendrickson take us on a roller-coaster ride – in a Delaurian! – through the pervasion of Agile, the evils of meeting big companies where they are, the next evolution of Agile, and treating programmers with human decency, all in the “right side lounge”! Not sure what that means? Neither are we, but we learned a lot and you will, too. Need more incentive? How about these quotes:- “You’re not doing Agile until your teams are shipping software every two weeks.”- “I have in mind a revolution.”- “What is Agile 2.0? It’s teal biomimicry.”- “We coded live during the keynote to prove that we could do it.”- “Everything I learned about Agile, I learned through pair programming.” To receive real-time updates, subscribe at YouTube, iTunes or SolutionsIQ.com.Subscribe: bit.ly/SIQYouTube, bit.ly/SIQiTunes, www.solutionsiq.com/agile-amped/Follow: bit.ly/SIQTwitterLike: bit.ly/SIQFacebook

In this episode of LeadingAgile’s SoundNotes we focus on a question submitted by a student from one of our recent classes. Jennifer, the student, asked about what to do when the Chief Product Owner is defining the Release Plan without input from the Product Owner or the Stakeholders. During the podcast, LeadingAgile’s Jim Hayden and Dave Prior dig into reasons why that might be happening, and how to respond.

Chet Hendrickson & Ron Jeffries (briefly) take over Agile Amped after (briefly) breaking Howard Sublett. Then the duo reminisce on 20 years of collaboration since the beginning of Extreme Programming (which, you'll remember, is well before the onset of Agile). With decades of experiences in Agile (and its predecessor methodologies), Chet and Ron have lots to say about the state of Agile and aren't above saying it. Of interest: the fact that so many Agile companies focus on the tools for doing Agile and few focus on actually being Agile. On this point, Chet advocates for "more Jenkins, less Jira." Ron says it may be time to return to the roots of Agile and XP and do the unthinkable to get the desired results: change the name. SolutionsIQ's Howard Sublett hosts at Agile2016 in Atlanta, GA.

I recently got the most wonderful opportunity to talk with a couple of legends in the Agile Community - Chet Hendrickson and Ron Jeffries! They're partnering with Brian Levy to bring a 5-Day, dual certification, public CSD class to Chicago for the week of 14-18 March, 2016. Ron, Chet and Brian discuss many of the XP Practices we grown to love and integrate into our Scrum implementations. Brian also adds a dash of SAFe to the conversation. The class, in downtown Chicago, combines a 3-day Certified Scrum Developer (CSD) class and a 2-Day SAFe ScrumXP class. Class attendees will be awarded the CSD via Scrum Alliance (assuming they already have other pre-requisites covered), and the Scaled Practitioner (SP) via Scaled Agile. Details for the class can be found at these sites About the Trainers You can find more about Ron Jeffries . You can find more about Chet Hendrickson . You can find more about Brian Levy .
Ron and Chet discuss their conference experience, thoughts on the best sessions so far, trends in the industry and so much more!Buckle up.
We captured this impromptu conversation between some of the greatest minds in the industry and trust us you are going to want to see the magic that ensued. You're welcome. Podcasts are brought to you by SolutionsIQ and the Scrum Alliance.
Chet and Ron discuss hot topics, current trends and future directions of XP, Scrum and the industry in general.
I finally got a chance to talk with Ron Jeffries and Chet Hendrickson at the Simple Design and Testing conference last year. I have known Ron for a while now but this conference was the first time that I got to talk with Chet. They both enjoyed the conference and I hope to see them at the next SDT conference if we ever get around to organizing one.-bob payne
