Many developers have been suddenly thrown into developing code in stages whereas they used to be able to do bigger designs up front.

Many people tell them to do test-driven development and emergent design while ignoring the fact that their work with legacy systems may prevent such actions. In any event, new methods require new skills – skills they don’t have time to get.

At first it may appear that the required developer skill set for this new way of writing code is huge and daunting. Fortunately, it isn’t.

One of the things they have learned at Net Objectives is that there are often a few simple things one can do that make a huge difference. Net Objectives refer to these as trim tabs since they are small things that make a big difference. People should start with these trim tabs.

This webinar introduces some trim tabs for the new agile developer.

Presenter: Alan Shalloway (Linkedin Profile & @alshalloway) is the founder and CEO of Net Objectives. With 40 years experience, Alan is a thought leader in Lean, Kanban, PPM, Scrum and agile design. He is the author of Design Patterns Explained: A New Perspective on Object-Oriented Design, Lean-Agile Pocket Guide for Scrum Teams, Lean-Agile Software Development: Achieving Enterprise Agility, and Essential Skills for the Agile Developer: A Guide to Better Programming and Design. Alan is a co-founder and board member for the Lean Software and Systems Consortium.
