Speakers: Agility is a value system that emphasizes people, results, collaboration, and responsiveness. Scrum is a framework for Agile development. Scaling Scrum throughout an enterprise depends on “requirements” and “work” efficiently flowing throughout the “veins” of the organization to deliver effective value. At the micro level, the focus of Scrum is on management and teams as well as business and technology. At the macro level, focus needs to be on scalability and sustainability -- that is -- Transformation. A robust and unified application lifecycle management (ALM) solution --- providing a foundation for requirements, configuration, test, release, and portfolio management --- fosters collaboration, adoption and success. In this Webinar, Si Alhir and Colin Doyle of MKS, will demystify the notion of the Agile Enterprise, dispelling common myths around enterprise aspects such as organizing and coordinating large distributed efforts, blending less-Agile and more-Agile approaches, delivering complex solutions with product lines and component reuse, and meeting compliance and oversight objectives with more persistent assets.
