Starting my placement year in 1998 when we were desperately preparing for the Y2K bug, I've worked through several roles, industries and a handful of languages.
I'm very much at the stage where I want to do my part for the next generation of developers. You don't need to make the same mistakes I did! (And perhaps you can be inspired by a few things I did right?)

When Agile goes bad
"Agile is a bit like Communism. It frequently doesn't work, but its proponents will tell you it's because you didn't do it right." - Unknown

In this talk, I will discuss common mistakes - including some of my own - when attempting to implement Agile practices in your software development team(s).
