Agile Advice is Hacked… Working Hard to Fix It!

Hello loyal readers… over the last month we have become aware that this site has been hacked so that it sometimes displays content that is unrelated to the site itself.  We have fixed it a number of times, and we hope that we will be able to keep it fixed.  However, if you should come across content that is clearly inappropriate for this site, please let me know.  I would appreciate a screen shot or other specific information about the inappropriate content so that I can take specific action.  Please email me at mishkin at berteig consulting dot com.  Thanks!

Announcing our winter 2012 course schedule

Hi Everyone!

We have delayed announcing our winter 2012 schedule until now because we have been working on a new platform for listing our courses and creating a community environment for people who have taken our courses.  So, without further ado, I would like to offer to you: World Mindware!

Since we are agile ourselves, this site is still very basic.  We have our list of courses and you are able to register for courses.  However, we welcome feedback of all kinds including bug reports, suggestions for improvements or requests for assistance.  Please contact operations@berteigconsulting.com if you have any feedback about the site.

At Berteig Consulting, we are experts at using agile methods such as Scrum to transform people, process and culture in order to produce high-performance teams and organizations. From ScrumAlliance.org: “Scrum is an agile framework for completing complex projects. Scrum originally was formalized for software development projects, but works well for any complex, innovative scope of work. The possibilities are endless.”
