Neil Killick (@neil_killick) joined me (@RyanRipley) to discuss a wide variety of agile ideas including: “Shu-Ha-Ri”, Agile Management, #NoEstimates, and when software is “done”.

Neil is a software delivery coach and manager with experience shipping software in various capacities, domains, and industries. He is one of the key pioneers of #NoEstimates and seeks better ways to slice work, collaborate with stakeholder, and deliver value frequently. Neil blogs at here and is a must read for agile-minded thinkers and experimenters.

In this episode you’ll discover:

  • Agile as a mindset vs Agile as a set of tools and processes
  • What is “shu-ha-ri” and does it make sense in an agile context?
  • Why #NoEstimates is an important concept that moves agile thinking forward
