Agile2014

We have crossed the chasm with Agile adoption and are well into the pragmatist and conservative phase; great progress for our world of work today. What about the world of education and our world of work tomorrow?



Imagine working with teams in the future which are already "Agile" because they grew up that way...



They say that children are our future. How do we engage our children in such a way that we are cultivating the next generation of innovative thought leaders?



This session is intended for parents, grand-parents, family members, caregivers, teachers, and any others who interact with children or have an interest in mentoring children. We will talk about techniques that can be used both at home and in other settings to provide flow and balance in learning for children. Constructivist models, developmental psychology, and other concepts will be used to show how we can instill Agile Values and Principles that the children can take forward with them.



The concepts will also be tied to application in the workplace, which I regularly do as I am coaching and training for Agile adoption over the last 7+ years.



The activities provide opportunities for group and team discussion so that the session is interactive and engaging; i.e. following the idea that we learn best in 10-15 minute segments vs. hour long blocks of time.
