Had a Great Time at Iowa Code Camp

Iowa Code Camp SymbolIt really goes without saying, but I had a fantastic time at Iowa Code Camp on Saturday.  It’s always a great reminder of the amazing folks who work in technology here in the Midwest.  Code Camp is often the only chance I get to talk to some of these folks every year, so it’s always awesome to catch up.

I attended some great talks and had some really great conversations just sitting around the tables between talks.  This is always such a great event.

So let me thank the people who came and listened to my talk.  I really appreciate you being there and hope that I was able to give you even one piece of information you can take back to your work to make things better for your team.  If so, then I feel my time was well spent.

I also want to thank all the people who volunteer their time to put the event together twice a year as well as the folks who come in from all over the place to share what they’ve learned.  You are all truly an amazing bunch of folks.

If you couldn’t make it, look for the next one coming this fall in Des Moines.  I’d love to see you there!

Eastern Iowa Agile presentation – Selling Agile to Executives

On Thursday, March 26th, I gave a presentation about selling agile to your organization at the Eastern Iowa Agile meetup.

I’m not a big fan of presentations that just get read to the audience, so some of my slides could you some additional narrative.  I’ll follow this up with some additional posts to do just that.

If you’re interested in the presentation deck, feel free to grab it here.
