Los Angeles Agile Project Leadership Network and Platinum Edge, Inc. announces book launch event for the book "Agile Project Management for Dummies" by Mark C. Layton. The book release and networking event will take place on June 6th, 2012 from 6:00pm to 9:00pm at Wokano Restaurant and Lounge in Santa Monica, CA.
Agile Project Management for Dummies, by Mark C. Layton, Certified Scrum Trainer, is the first book to provide a simple, step-by-step guide to agile project management approaches, tools, and techniques.
Agile Project Management is one of the fastest-growing management techniques in business today. As mobile and web technologies continue to evolve rapidly, there is added pressure to develop and implement software projects in days and weeks instead of months and years.
Guests have the opportunity to get copies of their books signed, as well as ask Mark their tough agile questions in the Coaches Corner. Drinks and hors d'oeuvres will be served.
