The July presentation will be on Wednesday July 8th from 4pm to 6pm at:
Northmark I
10101 Alliance Road
Blue Ash, Ohio 45242
The presentation topic is Enterprise Agility.
Scrum and XP have found a strong following in the development community. But most non-development groups inside the enterprise are far from agile, nor are they trying to move to be more agile. This session starts with a refresher on Scrum, and then uses real experiences to show how to cope and effectively work with those teams.

Cincinnati SPIN Meeting
The presentation topic is 3 Tips to Improve Your Development Process.
It does not matter if you are doing Agile or if you are working in an environment like RUP or CMMI, there are several things you can do to improve your development process. This highly interactive session will show you three specific tips: improve your estimation, use a daily standup to keep a close focus on your progress, and work in retrospectives to empower your team's ability to drastically improve your entire software development process, regardless of what that process is, even if it's no process! You will leave this session with a handle on ways to smooth out your project's environment.
For directions or more information, check the Cincinnati SPIN website.
