SPaMCAST 221 - Agile and Risk Management, Part 2

Welcome to the Software Process and Measurement Cast 221! The Software Process and Measurement Cast 221 features Part Two of my essay on Agile and Risk Management. Let's add some techniques to the mix! The SPaMCAST 221 marks the end of Year Six! It has been a great year! Next week begins Year 7. I also want to point out a new project I have begun, Daily Process Thoughts. Daily Process Thoughts will deliver a quick daily idea, thought or simple smile to help you become a better change agent.

Next: The Software Process and Measurement Cast 222 will feature an interview with Will McKnight. Will was my first interview and has graciously come back to the Software Process and Measurement Cast to kickoff Year Seven with a discussion of the CMMI as a refrence model. Will reminds us that the CMMI if used correctly adds value. We also argued over the phrase "best practices!"
