People to Watch: 2010-2011

I met Dawn Cannan at Agile 2010 when she presented with Patrick Wilson-Welsh. I knew that I wanted to hear more, so I invited her to join me for an interview for a new series entitled "People to Watch". If you would like to suggest a person to watch this year, then please contact us at the same email address where we accept nominations.

The Award

The Gordon Pask Award recognizes two people whose recent contributions to Agile Practice make them, in the opinion of the Award Committee, people others in the field should emulate. In order that people might emulate them, the Agile Alliance will fund each recipient’s travel to two different suitable conferences on two different continents. In order to grow the next generation of Agile thought leaders, the Award is given to people who aren’t already routinely invited to conferences, presumably because their reputation is not yet widespread.
