For any code base there comes a time when you want to change it. But if you just steam ahead making changes that break the code and then fixing errors, a common situation is that every fix or change creates several more errors. It feels as if you have picked a fight with a beast, the Software Hydra – for every scary head you cut of, two more grows out!

Instead, come learn The Mikado Method, a systematic approach to beat the Hydra and change the code in a safe way. The method helps you visualize, prepare and perform business-value-focused changes while delivering continuously, and without having a broken code-base in the process. It enhances team communication, collaboration and learning, and helps individuals stay on track.
