As anticipated in a previous post the end of this event was different from the previous editions of this Latin-American Agile Event. The usual panel when key note speakers discuss about tendencies was replaced by a Latin-American panel where present and future of Agility in Latinamerica was discussed. One representative of each country talked about their agile communities and I had the opportunity to represent Uruguay there.
This panel helped empowering the community, something I find of extreme importance. We could find in all agile presentations different principles, values, frameworks but there is something everyone states: there is no silver bullet. Every different context needs to adapt the frameworks, select the set of practices that best feet and the learning and adapting stages will improve the processes.
Sharing experiences about how agile methodologies were followed in each context are then of great importance.
I liked this year when, one year after having obtained our Certified Scrum Master degree, we organized an event at the UDELAR University and some participants presented the experience they had following agile methodologies during that year. There were experiences in great companies like TCS and in small Pymes. It was interesting to see how the audience felt identified with different presentations finding similarities with their context and seeing practices they could take to improve their work.
So, having a strong Latin American community and local communities in each country seems to be vital. In Uruguay this is lead by the Scrum community. If you are interested in participating just enter here and be alert as new events are being scheduled.
