Presented By: Gwen Kestin
Have you heard the terms, Agile, Lean, Scrum, Kanban, DevOps, wondered what they really mean, and struggled to explain in a nutshell how they relate? Join Gwen Kestin on March 19, 2019 to help demystify these ideas by exploring their key principles and practices, why they matter, and how we all can benefit from them.

She started coaching teams part-time for several years before moving into a full-time Agile coaching role 2 years ago, to focus on her passion helping teams evolve in their Lean/Agile journey and DevOps transformation at Vanguard.
