Ik wil iedereen graag uitnodigen voor de Agile Open conferentie, die Willem en ik op 5 en 6 juni in hartje Utrecht organiseren. Dit is een open space conferentie rondom agile softwareontwikkeling. Open space betekent dat deelnemers zelf ter plekke het programma samenstellen op basis van wat iedereen aan vragen, issues, problemen en ideeën inbrengt.

We organiseren Agile Open alweer voor de 4e keer. Het thema is deze keer:

De conferentie is voor iedereen met enige agile ervaring en is bedoeld om ervaringen, uitdagingen en nieuwe ideeën uit te wisselen. Enkele sessies uit vorige Agile Opens:

- Project Planning Metrics
- Simple Tools for Feedback, Communication and Courage
- Adapting the Planning Game to build secure systems
- Agile documentation
- Community of Trust
- Presentation Zen
- Transitioning Organizations To Agile Methodologies
- The Future of Unit Testing

Wat er deze keer gebeurt, heb je als deelnemer zelf in de hand...
