In Episode 6 of Troubleshooting agile we talk about the Fourth Agile Principle: 'Business people and developers must work together daily throughout the project.'

Some of the topics discussed are:

-Why this is the only principle containing the word MUST.
-How to easily overcome a principle which at first sight can appear impractical to implement.
-What business people can do that developers can't.
-The importance of customer proxies in bridging the communication gap between departments.
-How this speeds everything up and helps developers maintain their flow.
-As well as motivating teams, through trust and inclusion, in a way that can spark innovation.
-Eating your own dogfood
