as presented in the 18th Greece Agile meetup http://www.meetup.com/Agile-Greece/events/223100634/ let’s say that you are thinking to introduce agile methodologies in your organization to tackle the needs of a very complex project! you have planned and prepared everything and you have visualized your objectives, goals and expectations! you are trying to control this change…but you feel a little bit nervous and you are afraid if things will not go on a certain way…try this: let go of this control!” in this short session i’ll talk about how such a “drastic” change could become normal through gradual progression. inspired from Jason Little work on "Lean Change Management" and Leo Babauta "Zen Habits"
