Join us for a special 2 hour Un-Common Sense session! Al Shalloway, Steve Tendon and Joshua Barnes were joined with past guest hosts. Many thought leaders, including them, are believing that in many ways, Agile has run its course and that there are better ways to be successful. This session will have most of our past guest hosts discuss what they think the next steps for the industry are.
As popular as Agile is, its success rate is not particularly high. Your three hosts believe this is because most organizations are being led by cargo cult and echo chambers. Many brilliant and proven concepts are not in any of the more popular approaches. This has resulted in a huge gap between what is possible and what is being achieved. The Uncommon Sense sessions will present many concepts that organizations should be using but that are not popular while also uncover myths present in popular methods that are holding organizations back.
The hosts of Uncommon sense are either creators of cutting edge, but proven approaches (Al, Steve) or an experienced trainer / practitioner in Agile methods. This will ensure you get both the theory and the practice of the methods being described.

Uncommon Sense is a weekly session hosted by Al Shalloway, Steve Tendon and Joshua Barnes. The intention is to rethink many myths in the Agile space while presenting proven, but little used, concepts and techniques. The hosts of Uncommon Sense sessions represent the only two full value stream approaches that incorporate Patterns, Lean, Flow and Theory of Constraints while also attending to the human elements and culture of an organization!
