Michigan Agile Speaker Series
Putting Agile & Lean Principles in Practice
The Michigan Agile Speaker Series, sponsored by Medical School Information Services (MSIS), brings together thought leaders and practitioners of the Agile methodology to campus to share their experiences, insights, and vision. The Michigan Agile Philosophy for project management focuses on dedicated, self-organizing teams in a co-located space, and includes customers and product owners in a shared work process. Agile is an alternative approach to traditional project management and, while it is often used for software development, it can also be applied to managing any type of work. Although successfully used in many industries, MSIS is one of the first organizations at the University of Michigan to use Agile as a core part of their practice.
