An Agile Scrum Team: What Does it Mean to be Small, Cross-functional, and Self-Organizing? 
Agile teams are expected to deliver results, and we want to do our best in building the right teams. What's the right size for a team? How cross-functional do they need to be? And what does self-organizing really mean? During this session we'll explore all of these questions in an effort to understand the expectations of a development team working in an agile environment. Peter Borsella is the founder of Winnow Management Corporation, based in Parkland, FL. Peter is an IT professional with 26 years of experience in application development and IT leadership. He is also a Project Management Professional (certified by the PMI) and a Certified ScrumMaster Trainer (certified by the Scrum Alliance). His ability to contribute across a wide range of environments has taken him to companies such as Hilton, Cisco, and AOL, and to various countries such as India, Hungary, and Israel. Peter is adept in administering all aspects of project management, as well as providing authentic leadership to create effective teams. An active and contributing member to both the PMI and the Scrum Alliance, Peter’s speaking engagements focus on bridging the gap between traditional Project Management and Agile Project Management. His goal is to help others understand how to get the best return from any project by achieving higher levels of software quality, increased customer satisfaction, and cohesive teams that enjoy increased productivity.
