Lean Coffee Topics in dot-voted order
Lean Coffee is a structured, but agenda-less meeting. Participants gather, build an agenda, and begin talking. Conversations are directed and productive because the agenda for the meeting was democratically generated. We met at Mad City Coffee at 07:30 . We enjoyed an hour and a half of coffee and conversation.
August Topics
Distributed Teams
When everyone in your company is distributed, what are some ways you can stay connected?
Paired Programming
How do you sell paired programming to your organization? Management sees it as one for the price of two.
Test Driven Development
How exactly does it work? We hear that it's a good thing but why?
Method Turf Wars
Coaches and consultants get so passionate about the frameworks they promote. It used to be Waterfall against Agile. Now it's seemingly SAFe , Scrum at scale, enterprise Kanban and Lean... For the customers, do they really care? They just want stuff to work!
Meetups and Conferences
Have you been to any good meetups or conferences lately? Do you know of any upcoming events?
Conversations
We had some really good conversations around the topics. Rather than bullet them out here, I'll respond in the comments to encourage a little conversation.
