Abstract

Adopting agile isn’t as simple as ticking practices off a known list and moving onto the next one. It takes some effort to simply start applying a practice, and even more effort to attain a certain level of mastery. Distinguishing between apprentice-like behaviours and master-like behaviours is an important element of pushing the boundaries of a practice even more. This workshop uses the Dreyfus Model of Skill Acquisition to map behaviours we see in agile practices to the model and learn how to use this model to as a tool to help people progress to further levels of mastery within a particular practice.
