Being Agile as a personal skill

without comments

I have stumbled yesterday on this presentation given by Linda Rising at QCon SF 2007: “Perfection Is An Unrealistic Goal”.

It underlines the impedance between how humans are hardwired to work (in ~90 min focused sprints followed by a 20-30 min break)

and the prejudices haunting our workplaces (where productivity is associated with longer hours without any break and agility means

people can interrupt each other at any time).
