Quality It is difficult for IT to gain a seat at the table when IT is always failing, but on the other hand, an IT leader who is reacting to statistical noise—failures and ties.The CIO’s Place at the Table IT leadership runs the business along with the others who run the business. The seat at the table is earned by being at the table. The role of senior IT leadership

A Nimble Approach to The Table Agile in One Paragraph: Agile thinking simply says that we should empower small teams to inspect adopting an intelligent attitude toward risk.

That last piece of Hunter and Westerman’s adopting an intelligent attitude toward risk.

Introduction ................................................................... program managers should examine the aspects listed in Table 1 when weighing adoption of Agile or traditional development practices. Table 1 Traditional Versus Agile Considerations Consider Agile specific to Agile. Table 2 identifies recommended roles and responsibilities for members of an Agile team. Appendix B contains a more complete description of roles and responsibilities. Table 2 Agile Roles
