  • Abstract
    Salesforce.com has recently completed an agile transformation of a two hundred person team within a three month window. This is one of the largest and fastest "big-bang" agile rollouts. This experience report discusses why we chose to move to an agile process, how we accomplished the transformation and what we learned from applying agile at scale.
