Abstract :
Brian Victor and Noah Jacobson are developers at Abraxas Applications who led the initial adoption of agile practices at the company. They discovered that agile is a social process but that their background as developers prevented them from implementing it as effectively as they could. They relate several anecdotes that illustrate problems in developer led transitions and describe how their environment looked before and after a coach provided assistance.
