I frequently ask people where they see any form of agility outside of regular development. Joe Justice initially triggered me with that thought during our conversation in the previous season’s episode. A lot of answers passed the revue but never has anyone mentioned Jazz. Yet, Gerald J. Leonard has written a book around this very example. The smooth sound and the way jazz musicians play work together are similar to how agile teams work together. Inspecting and adapting how they create the value, that beautiful sound. Gerald has some very excellent comparisons to share with us!What you’ll discover in this show:-        Concert halls can help you in delivering value -        Jazz players adapt to each other like people in Agile teams-        Beauty, as always, lies in the eyes of the beholder    Speakers:Gerald J.
