SPaMCAST 673 - What Is Agile, Product Owners, Conversations and Essays

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Today, we feature an essay titled, So I Asked What Is Agile. A simple question that yields interesting answers. One interesting outcome was that answers fit into three categories. We explore the process and people-oriented groups this week. I will come back to the rant category later this month.  </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In addition to the essay, Tony Timbol brings his To Tell A Story column to the cast!
