“If you could say one thing to your company president about agile, what would you say?”

“It's the only sane way to do software development. Do it agile, or we're out of here.”

“We need to hire the right people with the right combination of experience and mindset.”

“Adopt agile from the top down at some level”

“Put in the money to train and get the right tools and make this a cultural transition - not just methodology.”

“…get a %@$#!!* clue.”

“Good job!”
