Recommendation

Agile experts Glaudia Califano and David Spinks elucidate the challenges and techniques involved in implementing agile across cultures – even if they do veer too far into cultural and national typecasting at times. The authors traveled the globe to garner insights into the application of agile in diverse, real-world contexts. Understanding the broad cultural differences between continents and countries in which you practice agile – either on-site or virtually – will help you assemble agile teams with the right ingredients to succeed anywhere, while avoiding cultural faux pas.

Take-Aways
