Agile Communication

Everybody agrees these days that communication is one of the key success factors in any project, regardless of their size and complexity. During the Agile adoption process, many teams and managers are blind to communication issues and believe everything is working just fine.

However, experience suggests that communication is failing at many levels. Managers don’t really understand their developers, testers and other geeks, who on the other hand often fail to effectively sell their point back to management. Similar situations exist between sales and technical experts or even between developers and testers.
