Sketch Development Services began in 2015 when founder John Krewson had a realization: That everything he knew about leading software development projects came not from corporate trainings or his MBA, but from his time in entertainment—particularly, from sketch comedy.

John steps up to the One Mic Stand to not only tell us about Sketch and some of the latest developments in the world of Agile, but detail how Saturday Night Live is one of the longest running Agile institutions in the world.

For decades SNL has developed and delivered small batches of comedy in weekly intervals. As Krewson explains, the practices and principles SNL employs are quite agile. From welcoming changing requirements to maintaining technical excellence, there's a lot we can learn from how they deliver.

Listen, laugh and learn!
