David Consulting Group to Host Software Development Debate: Who Owns Agile Estimation?

April 19, 2012 - PRLog -- Malvern, PA – David Consulting Group (www.davidconsultinggroup.com), a leading international software development consulting firm, will be hosting a lively debate on the ownership of Agile estimation within an organization on May 17.

Attendees can expect to discuss the question: who owns Agile estimation – the SCRUM Teams or the PMO? Mike Harris, President of DCG, will act as facilitator, and a member of DCG will represent either side of the debate. In addition, during registration, those attending are invited to nominate themselves to join the debate; one additional person will be selected for each team.

Those attending but not involved in the debate will be welcome to ask questions for the panelists to discuss, as well as share their thoughts on the topic. At the end of the debate, a winning side will be selected.

“This is a first-time event of this nature for DCG, and we hope that it will promote interesting conversation regarding Agile estimation and how it is implemented within different organizations,” said Mike Harris, President of David Consulting Group. “We hope to gain insight from a variety of regional companies and expand on this concept with future debates that may be of interest to participants.”

The event will take place from 8:00-9:30am at the new Valley Forge Casino and Radisson Hotel in King of Prussia, Pa. Breakfast and beverages will be provided.
