Topic:

"Evolutionary Design, like many agile practices, is counterintuitive - become more predictable/reduce risk by planning less and discovering more.

This talk will discuss what evolution design is, when it works (and when it's waste), and the fundamental principles of why it works so you can adjust it for your context."

Agenda:

We will open doors at 6:30 and have light dinner food available for eating & conversing before the speaker. Thank you to TEKSystems for your continued support in making events like these possible.
7 pm, Talk
A little after 7 pm we'll introduce Matthew and let him take it away.
8 pm, Q&A.

Oh, and we're giving away prizes (books, t-shirts, eLearning thru Industrial Logic). RSVP today to save your spot!
