Making a Case for Agile in the Modern IT World

OCTOBER 24 @ 12 PM ET

Agile has become one of the most polarizing concepts in our modern IT world. For every advocate that sings its praises, there seems to be a challenger ready to defend their cause 

Just last month, Veracity SVP Scott Heffield was published on Forbes.com for his rebuttal to “The End of Agile,” a feature that challenged the validity of Agile in our modern world.  

Through Heffield’s 30+ years of software development experience, Agile coaching, and leadership, he’s seen countless successes that make him a believer in Agile and argues that those who don’t see it’s effectiveness might, in fact, not be doing Agile at all.  

Join us as he makes his case in defense of Agile and confronts the common debates that arise in the software development space.
