Great Indian Developer Summit 2010 – Gold Standard for India’s IT Professional Ecosystem

Are you new to Agile? Having challenges implementing an agile process in your organization? Have you been using Scrum, but need to bend the rules to make it work in your organization? Can’t get the business to “buy-in”? Joel Semeniuk is coming to India’s biggest summit for the software developer ecosystem - Great Indian Developer Summit to teach how to implement an agile process in your organization. You’ll look at the “buffet table” of agile processes and procedures and learn how to properly decide “what to eat.” He’ll start by defining XP, Scrum, Kanban and some other popular methodologies and then teach how to mix and match each process for various scenarios, including the enterprise, ISVs, consulting, and remote teams. Then take a look at agile tools and how they will aid in implementing your development process. Lastly, he will talk about how to “sell” agile to your business partners and customers. The summit will be held 19-22 April 2011 at the IISc in Bangalore.
