Project Management Happy Hour

094 - Agile vs Waterfall Smack-Down!


Listen Later

For the first time, Kate and Kim find an Agilist brave enough to join them on the podcast to talk about some really hard questions about working Agile vs Waterfall. Let's get it on!

We ask the questions that PM's want to ask - frustrated, annoyed PM's who are told to work "agile" by people who maybe don't even understand Agile - or Waterfall, for that matter.

In this refreshingly honest talk about the reality of ways of working, Kate, Kim and their guest Agilist, David Asch, talk in real-world terms about Agile, Predictive and the reality in-between.

About our amazing (and brave) guest, David Asch

David Asch has a 36-year career in startup and mid-stage commercial software companies. He's worked in various industries, including transportation, supply chain, retail analytics, scientific marketing, blockchain, and secure communications. From his experience with the challenges and successes of delivering software over a long career, David founded 10xPrinciples, a management/organizational consulting company, to help technology companies navigate the transition from startup to mid-stage.

During a time of rapid growth and change, teams typically find that the "wearing many hats" culture from their startup days is no longer the best approach to honoring commitments. David helps these companies weave Agile practices into the fabric of their cultures. David's recognized expertise in companywide Agile-driven management makes him invaluable to clients who need to implement Agile principles and methodologies into their unique business environments.
