Agile Israel 2017
The central Agile event in Israel
MAKE AGILE PART OF YOUR DNA!
"It Is Not the Strongest of the Species that Survives But the Most Adaptable".
--- Charles Darwin
Agile and DevOps have become a proven great way to improve your ability to achieve you business goals. However, "doing" Agile, and not really "being" Agile, will not allow you to rip the benefits Agile can bring. It is therefore essential to internalize the values behind Agile and make them part of your DNA to make sure your agility does not decay with time and that new people that join your organization duplicate this DNA and make it part of them as well.
At Agile Israel 2017, the central Agile event in Israel running for the 10th consecutive year, we will discuss how this can be done, review inspiring case studies and learn tips and tricks you can apply in your organization to take your Agile/DevOps implementations to the next level.
