On the one hand there are meanwhile not many projects left that are made at home without outsourcing, off- or nearshoring. On the other hand more and more projects discover the success factor of agile development which requests - among other things - an emphasis on face-to-face communication.

In this tutorial, Jutta will report from her experiences in bringing these two trends together and which practices help and which hinder the success of a project.

The focus will be on how to apply agile processes in a distributed setting and how to establish and preserve a common development culture.

Upon completion, you will understand that also distributed (and large) teams can benefit from a value system and from principles that are beneficial for small teams. In fact the two trends - distribution in terms of globalization and agility - can even complement each other.
