Abstract: Adopting Agile techniques is, like any change, difficult. The change to Agile techniques in particular can be very hard as they run against the grain of much of the received wisdom in corporate IT.
By focusing on value added rather than effort expended we can make Agile make sense for managers and business sponsors. By focusing on quality we can make Agile make sense for developers and testers.
Here are some data, some stories, some models and some techniques for managing this change.
Keywords: Managing Change, Value, Quality.
