Tech Program for SEPG North America 2009 Announced

I’ll be giving three sessions at SEPG North America in San Jose in March. One on agile metrics for quantitative management (i.e. model level 4) another the other on building a culture for high maturity (model levels 4 & 5) with kanban and teaming up with Mike Konrad and the gang to talk about the new Technical Note, CMMI and Agile: Why not embrace both! The program also includes a key note from Alistair Cockburn and a considerable amount of Agile+CMMI material from folks like Nelson Perez, Corey Ladas, Christian Hertneck, Hillel Glazer, Jeff Dalton. This is the year of Agile and CMMI and the two camps coming together. I would really like to see a significant turn out of agile folks at the SEPG in 2009. Open your mind to the idea that organizational maturity matters and that the SEI has a contribution to make that can help us all succeed. Take a look at the program for the event. Hope to see some of you there.
