The conversation between technical and business is interesting but as I've stated before, unless the business folks are "prepared" to listen, there is a low probability that what the technical person has to say will be heard. By prepared to listen I mean they acknowledge a "felt need" to make changes. We've struggled here a bit in getting the message out about "agile," but working from several points of view (managers and directors, not developers) it is starting to stick. Glen B.
