Tom Stone and Howard Meyers are talking on "Learning and the ROI on training and coaching on Lean/Agile Practices within a Company"
Tom has finished his PhD and will be sharing viewpoints from his thesis.
His Co-Author Howard Meyers will also be speaking at this presentation.
Now, this may not to be perfectly polished presentation in it's final form. This is more a trial for Tom and Howard who will be presenting their paper at a conference later this spring. This presentation allows them to get feedback and make adjustments to their work - and we all get to help.
