ABOUT ABOUT

In this highly charged political season is there really a need for yet another debate? We say YES! ... as long as we can get some Han Dynasty Dan Dan Noodles. 

We all know that launching a digital project is no small feat. There are unexpected twists and turns, and roadblocks, plus a variety of personalities and methodologies that can be employed. At the end of the day our team's job is to deliver something amazing. 

What is the best way to work within all these constraints and still achieve our goal? 

The Great Debate:
Our friends at the Manayunk based Intuitive Company will host DPM Philly's next event on Tuesday September 22nd in style.

Using college debate style rules, this event will interrogate the pros and cons of some of our favorite project management methodologies: Agile vs. Waterfall. Debate teams, made up of advocates and practitioners, will go head-to-head to challenge your thinking on both approaches.

The hour long debate, starting at 6:45pm (socializing, drinks, and noodles start at 6:00pm), will feature questions fielded before and during the event via social media using #dpmphilly and curated by our evening's moderator.
