Neil first reached out to us to tell us everything that we did wrong with our Azure DevOps (ADO) best practices, and we knew we had to have him on the podcast.

Neil is an Agile expert and spends his time mentoring and coaching individuals and businesses on how to run Agile optimally for their organizations. Basically, he's an expert in the field and we wanted to hear his advice (and share it with you) on how to leverage ADO that may be a little different than what we're currently doing.
