I have finally modified the AgileDotNet Dallas 2013 presentation that I co-created to be a little more descriptive and uploaded it to Slideshare! The presentation was inspired by Jeff Patton, Mary Poppendieck, Diana Larsen and James Shore.
It was a lot of work to create and a lot of fun to present. Enjoy.
