Publisher Description: The Art of Agile Practice: A Composite Approach for Projects and Organizations presents a consistent, integrated, and strategic approach to achieving Agility in your business. Transcending beyond Agile as a software development method, it covers the gamut of methods in an organization--including business processes, governance standards, project management, quality management, and business analysis--to show you how to use this composite approach to enhance your ability to adapt and respond to evolving business requirements. The book is divided into three parts:
The book describes relevant metrics for the entire CAMS lifecycle and explains how to embed Agile practices within formal process-maps in projects. Filled with figures, case studies, and tables that illustrate key concepts, the text is ideal for a two- or three-day training course or workshop. It is also suitable for a 13-week education course for higher degree students that includes process discussions and consideration of Agile values at both software and business levels. The chapters are organized to correspond roughly to such lectures with an option to choose from the case study chapters. |
