Influence and Authority Slides Posted

Posted by: Johanna Rothman on 06/18/2012

I delivered a keynote about influence and authority last week at Better Software/Agile Development Practices. I have also uploaded them to slideshare.

For those of you who were not at the conference, I told a story about transitioning to agile as a running story throughout the keynote. I hope the slides stand alone. Maybe they will, maybe not. It was a talk!

I had a great time and met many wonderful people. Thank you to the great people at SQE for a wonderful conference.
