Session: Patterns of Effective Delivery

Friday, 15:15 - 16:05
Track: Agile

Some teams are orders of magnitude more effective than others. Over the last year or so I've been working with, and observing, some very good teams with quite exceptional - and rather surprising - habits. In this talk Dan introduces the idea of delivery patterns - patterns of effective behaviour in delivery teams - and describes some of the more unusual but effective patterns he's been collecting.

Dan has been writing software for over 20 years, and was a principal consultant with technology consultancy ThoughtWorks. Now a recent transplant to Chicago, he spends his time helping teams become more effective at delivering software, and presents at conferences such as JAOO, Agile and OOPSLA on topics ranging from learning theory to behaviour-driven development. He has published articles in the Java Developers' Journal and Better Software, and for CIO newsletters and the DSDM consortium.
