The Power of Improvisation on Agile Teams Washington, DC

Date: 14 August, 10:30am - noon

at Agile2007 with Tobias Mayer, Agile Thinking

Drawing from the art of improvisation, Agile coaches Jim York and Tobias Mayer lead this fun exploration of dysfunctional interpersonal communication born of learned “bad” behaviors.  On Agile teams, these stifling exchanges inhibit forward progress.  In this session, Jim and Tobias share a different approach based on their experience teaching Agile teams techniques from improvisation to help them find creative ways to discover and deliver customer value.  Participants will learn how to avoid responding in a way that obscures possibilities.  They will also learn how to heighten their own awareness and understanding during an exchange so that they can respond with agility and purpose.
