AQA - Agile Questions Answered

In this podcast I describe a set of questions you could ask a potential new client to help find out whether they are a suitable home for your skills and development as a Scrum Master/Agile Delivery Manager/Agile Coach.

In Agile Questions Answered, Episode 8 I discuss the question, What is the Reference Data Anti-pattern and Why is it harmful to Agile?

This episode of AQA is a little more philosophical in nature. It draws on the ideas of Rittel and Webber who described Wicked Problems in 1973. For a definition of Wicked Problems see: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wicked_problem

I have previously written a companion of Kanban and Scrum here: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/scrum-kanban-how-choose-steve-green/
