Everybody seems to be doing or being 'agile', everyone in his own way. What is it all about? Scrum is hot, XP is not, or is it? What exactly is 'agile'? Which methods and processes are there? What does agile mean in an broader organizational context? Is agile the ultimate goal or is there more?

In this workshop, we provide an overview of agile software development, from underlying values and principles to the concrete, well known practices and processes. We will show the role agile can play for developing organizations. You will experience an iterative process and a real retrospective to round up the workshop.
