Maria Matarelli is an international business consultant, experienced Agile Coach, and Certified Scrum Trainer (CST) who consults and trains companies on reaching true agility and getting results. Maria travels to consult Fortune 100 companies and speak at industry conferences with locations from Shanghai to Singapore and Thailand to Nova Scotia. While looking for ways to continue to expand Agile outside IT, Maria and her team have been applying Agile to the Marketing realm with incredible results, which led to Maria co-founding the Agile Marketing Academy. Maria also co-founded the Personal Agility Institute, helping people use Agile to do more of what matters in their lives and shift the culture of organizations. In addition, Maria is the Founder and President of Formula Ink, an international consulting company and is passionate about working with people and organizations to inspire agility.
Agile approaches to completing work have been known to help people to do more than twice the work in half the time. What could that kind of productivity increase do for your business? Let’s compare what is different in using an agile approach from traditional project management. A traditional project management approach focuses on gathering all requirements up front, making sure everything is planned out and designed thoroughly and then using a phased approach to develop, test, and launch a product to market.
Best Agile Articles is a collaborative project of the Agile community to bring you the best of the best publications each year. Our goal in publishing these yearly editions is to cull through the many articles that are published each year and provide you with a curated set of high-quality articles that capture the latest knowledge and experience of the agile community in one compact volume. Our purpose is twofold. First, we understand that it’s hard to figure out where to go when looking for ideas and answers. There are thousands of blogs, videos, books and other resources available at the click of a mouse. But that can be a lot to sort through. So, we thought we could be of some help. Second, we wanted to bring some visibility to many people who are doing outstanding work in this field and are providing helpful resources. We hope that this publication will help them connect to you, the ones they are writing for. Our intention is that this publication is to be by the agile community as a service to the agile community and for the agile community. With that in mind, we pulled together a great group of volunteers to help get this work into your hands.
The articles in this volume were selected by: • A diverse Volunteer Committee of sixteen people with expertise in a variety of areas related to agile. • The agile community. A call for article nominations went out in early 2020 and several dozen 2019 articles were nominated by the community.
The articles themselves cover a wide variety of topics including organizational structure, culture, and agile leadership. There is something for almost everyone here. All editions of the Best Agile Articles publication are available on Amazon and free to download on the Best Agile Article site. We are thankful for the great participation by the agile community at large. If you would like to participate in delivering this publication in future years, we would welcome hearing from you.
