Agendashift roundup, October 2024

Just a short one this month. “Real life intrudes”, as they say; our daughter just spent two weeks in the children’s hospital and was very unwell for longer than that, so it is just as well that I had done that clearing the decks exercise beforehand! Glad to report that’s she is better now than she has been for a while.

On the 10th I did manage to record that webinar with my friends at Businessmap (formerly Kanbanize), in which we looked back on the 10 years since Kanban from the Inside was first published. The recording is now available and posted to the blog:

From classic Lean-Agile to Outcome-Oriented Enterprise Agility: The 10-year Journey

The Agendashift 2nd edition was published only three years ago. Still, that’s long enough ago that I can see how certain things have developed since. Also posted this month:
