Happy Friday,

Beginning next week, we're excited to announce the launch of the 2012 Global Rational User Community (GRUC) Webinar Series.  These are live sessions that are presented by industry thought leaders and take place for 45 minutes accompanied by a 15 Q&A session.

 We are honored to have Julian Holmes, co-founder of UPMentors join the GRUC on Thursday, April 26 from 12 p.m. - 1 p.m. (EDT) to kick-off the webinar series by presenting, “Achieving Large-Scale Distributed Agile Delivery”.

Join Julian as he shares his experiences of working with clients to successfully adopt Agility @ Scale for large and complex delivery projects, with project teams spread across at least two countries.

For those of you who don't know Julian Holmes, attending this webinar will truly be a valuable opportunity, his industry knowledge stems from the experience of performing many different software development roles over his 20 years working within the industry, providing him recognition as a proven software development leader.  Julian also became an IBM Champion in 2011.

Attending this event will also provide you with:

  • An understanding of what it takes to achieve Agility @ Scale for large and complex software delivery projects
  • Real examples of how this has been achieved and the benefits that were realised
  • The IBM Rational methods and tools solutions that can be implemented in their projects and organisations to allow them to achieve the same results

Thanks,
