On 19-20 April we will be delivering a one-off certification course in Auckland - Certified Agile Leadership, with international trainer and Certified Enterprise Coach Michael Sahota.

Agile is a means to achieving organisational goals, such as organisational growth. The biggest challenge to successful Agile adoption is changing the organisational culture. It's not about practices, it's about people.

Caroline Wardrop has joined IT consultancy Equinox IT as a Senior Consultant specialising in Agile coaching and training. She will be based in Equinox IT’s Auckland office.

Last week I presented a webinar The ‘edges’ of Scrum – Addressing project management concerns on Agile projects which focused on where Scrum fits in to a typical PRINCE2 and PMI project lifecycle and what project management concerns are addressed by Scrum.

During the webinar we received a number of questions, some of them I responded to as part of the webinar, but there was insufficient time for all of the questions. So in this blog post I answer all of the questions asked during the webinar.

Himanshu Jaisal recently asked us a question of this nature via our Ask us your IT questions and we’ll respond page. The business analyst role can be a popular way to move into IT projects and we receive questions like this fairly regularly. So Brendon Livingstone and I recorded a quick 12 minute Blab to answer this question which you can watch below. A transcription of the Blab is also included. If you have an IT question that you would like to ask, please submit this in our Ask us your IT questions and we’ll respond page.
