Agile And Lean Practices - The Mobile Academy
Preview:
DESCRIPTION
These slides supported the session I ran at The Mobile Academy London. The session was to introduce Agile and Lean practices. The session was based on principles which should have set the scene for the attendees to use in their workplaces or understand Agile some more. We discussed Scrum as an example framework and the value of inspect and adapt processes to support startups and enterprises. I was considering to record myself speaking over these slides to give it more context. If you would be interested, let me know and if I get more that 5 requests, I'll do it.

- POWER OF SMALL TEAMS Turned down $3bn offer from Facebook No
source of revenue When asked about future revenue sources for
Snapchat, CEO Evan Spiegel is testing a new hypothesis: getting
users to pay for added value services. By using agile development,
instead of waterfall development, Snapchat will be able to build
itself incrementally and iteratively.
