This presentation explores the special considerations an agile project leader must account for when planning, initiating, and running a distributed agile project. Techniques, tools, and learnings from three project experiences are discussed.

Discussion will also include anecdotes, failures, and successes based on the presenter’s past experiences as both an onshore and offshore member of outsourced and co-sourced distributed teams in the US, India, and China.

This session is particularly useful for individuals new to or considering distributed agile projects.

If planning for a large co-located 30+ development team is not enough to make you want to pull your hair out then try a 30+ development team located across several time zones, in places with different cultures and languages. Now, you’ve reached a level in the Agile planning game that would send most product owners running home to their mommies.
