Resistance as a Resource Workshop (Lasse Koskela)

For many of us who promote the adoption of agile methods or related techniques, dealing with resistance is part of our every day life. With this in mind, the proposed session strives to help the participating change agents to collaborate on the kinds of problems and solutions they face in their working environment.
