About the event
We are hosting this together with 'Our Agile Tales,' and now we celebrate solutions. The Agile Manifesto came out in 2001. Today, it seems that everyone is on the Agile bandwagon, making it fairly common in many workplaces. In previous episodes, we've discussed resistance that we've encountered at the leadership, the middle management, and the team level from both the UK and the US perspectives. Now, through these perspectives, we're going to talk about solutions that you can take away and use to address the examples of resistance we previously shared. In this special holiday episode, we're going to open our advent calendar of solutions to the resistance to Agile as a gift to everyone.
