I think Pair Programming is vital to the success of a programming team, but every time I join a new team I seem to find I’m in a minority of people who feel that way, let alone have any experience of actually doing it.

This is not a session about convincing a manager that it’s a good idea: let’s assume he or she trusts you to do whatever is right for the project. This is about exploring, understanding and ultimately tackling the hidden influences which inhibit your peers from coming out of their caves and sharing their thoughts and ideas in regular, constructive, creative, pairing sessions.

The session is aimed at leaders in teams who are transitioning to agile / XP and are struggling to adopt pair programming.

It helps participants to discover and understand the complex social factors that inhibit healthy collaboration in their teams, and to figure actions they can take to address them.
