In this podcast recorded at Agile 2019, Shane Hastie, Lead Editor for Culture & Methods, spoke to Steve Milligan about his work in Agile Finance and bringing the back-office along on the agile transformation journey. Why listen to this podcast: • The funding of agile initiatives has been largely left outside of the scope of transformation efforts, which results in dysfunction and cross purpose • Agile finance introduces structure so that financial aspects (target setting, budgeting, expenditure and reporting) become synergistic and add to the positive impact of transformation • Attitude changes need to start with the agile coaching and transformation change agents – they self-constrain and are biased against working with finance groups • The need to move from static budgets to activity-based budgets and investigate ideas like Beyond Budgeting • The authoritative bodies (SEC, AICPA) have issued guidance for the accounting profession regarding investigating and determining the applicability of concepts like Beyond Budgeting More on this: Quick scan our curated show notes on InfoQ https://bit.ly/2SYlOOd You can also subscribe to the InfoQ newsletter to receive weekly updates on the hottest topics from professional software development. bit.ly/24x3IVq Subscribe: www.youtube.com/infoq Like InfoQ on Facebook: bit.ly/2jmlyG8 Follow on Twitter: twitter.com/InfoQ Follow on LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/company/infoq Check the landing page on InfoQ: https://bit.ly/2SYlOOd
