Let’s understand the advantages and disadvantages of the agile way of working. We will also have a discussion around the various models for organizational agility and ways to adopt it. The focus will be on owning a roadmap for organizational agility vs renting processes.
Most often participants wanted to know what’s the best possible tools to manage development processes, so we give overviews about Jira, Trello and Azure DevOps to help them understand how and when to use these tools.
