Good overview of Agile

The contents of this audio was a good overview of Agile. It describes user stories and the iteration process that development undergoes. If you've worked in an Agile environment before, this will be nothing new to you. The speaker spoke clearly and was heard loudly enough in the microphone, but there were quite a few long pauses when he was presenting slides, which made for awkward listening as an audio. The questions being asked by the audience you couldn't hear and the speaker only repeated the first one. The PM company that produces these audios really needs to start focusing in on the speaker repeating the question for the audible audience to understand the topic being discussed.
