Hi there!

You certainly remember that I am pretty pro-agile ways of working. In this short post I want to point you to what is – for me anyway – at the core of a successful agile approach.

We love to also give our followers tools to improve their agile toolbox. Here's a nice technique that you can easily modify to use with distributed teams. Let's discover it together.

I came across this meme on my LinkedIn timeline. 

In the reactions, very classically schooled managers were tapping themselves on the back in a very manly fashion. How right this meme was! Harsh lessons to be learned here! So you want to be a leader ey?

In so many organisations I visit, the same lament continuously seems to surface: "We spend so much time in meetings!". As a coach, when I then try to implement a framework such as Scrum, which defines 5 ceremonies per sprint that each take up their time, without taking into account the team's current situation, I'm already set up to fail.
