LIGHTNING TALKS

Lightning Talk proposal submissions for Agile Australia 2010 have now closed. Many thanks to everyone who submitted, and we'll be in touch as soon as we have confirmed the program.

Lightning Talks are concise, informal mini-presentations that generate ideas and conversation points for the audience.

Lightning Talks can be on any topic and are a maximum of FIVE minutes long. The emphasis of these mini-presentations is on knowledge sharing, generating new ideas, and having fun! Presentation props are optional.

Here are some ideas for Lightning Talks from other Agile community websites:
1. Why my favourite practice is X.
2. Successful Project: I did project X. It was a success. Here's how you could benefit.
3. Failed Project: I did project X. It was a failure, and here's what I learned.
4. Agile Heresy: People always say X, but they're wrong. Here's why.
5. You All Suck: Here's what is wrong with the Agile community.
6. Call to Action: Let's all do more of X / less of X.
