Agile Business Conference Presentations & Proceedings - October 2011

The Agile Business Conference is a major, two-day annual event held in London, providing a single forum for everyone interested in the effective application of Agile across the Public and Private Sectors. The 2012 event (next week) is the Tenth Anniversary of the ABC and the theme is: First Agile Decade; the maturity, evolution and reality of Agile as the de-facto standard for the management, development and delivery of Projects, Programmes and Products in the 21st Century, in the Public and Private Sectors. As part of my preparation & planning for attendance at this event I was drawn to look at proceedings from the 2011 event and chanced upon a list of 30 presentations in PDF format. The problem with this is that the knowledge is buried deeply and inaccessibly behind the links with little or no available signposting! This map is my attempt to surface and share that information based on a small proportion (the first 4 presentations). It contains attachments including the original presentations and a Wordle for each presentation. I believe this approach could provide a basis for sharing future conference proceedings and will look to develop is as hone my mapping skills over the next few days ... I would be interested to receive feedback from others on mapping techniques used, as well as the content of this map. Merv Wyeth www.chanctonbury.org
