Agendashift roundup, February 2025
In short: it has been a busy week, and an exciting March in store!
This week was Train-the-Trainer / Facilitator (TTT/F) week. Intense in a good way, with lots to discuss – not just the Leading with Outcomes material and how to use it, but the real-world organisational challenges it inevitably surfaces and how they might be approached differently. Per my recent messaging of “not everyone attends with the aim of becoming a Facilitator or Trainer”, half the attendees came just to participate and learn.
The next one will be in June:
16-19 June, four 4-hour sessions online, afternoons UK time:Leading with Outcomes: Train-the-Trainer / Facilitator (TTT/F)
Next week is Kanban Edge 2025, which I’m told is officially sold out. Congratulations Helen, David, and Glaudia! Watch out next week though for the first two of three exciting announcements; the third will come later in the month.
Finally, last week I was in brain dump mode at Morten Elvang’s Agile Strategy Meetup, squeezing way more than I should into a 30-minute speaking slot, plus another 30 minutes for questions. It’s not as polished as my keynotes, but the recording can be found here along with PDF, links, references, etc:
