Remembering Egypt

Our company is based in Portugal, but it is by no means bound to our country.
This picture was taken in December 2018, in Giza. We were there to provide training to Vodafone Cairo and used the weekend to visit the Giza pyramids.

Ignore the power of positive feedback at your own peril

Feedback: so used, so misunderstood.

Just found this great article via LinkedIn: https://buff.ly/2uvxRqz. This also applies to feedback. I have seen a lot of companies using it to serve critiques. In the best case, some are constructive. If you never reflect on what is going well, people’s heart rate will raise every time you mention feedback. If one does not know what is working well, we will lose focus on those things/mindsets/behavior. This also applies to retrospectives. If your team doesn’t reflect on what is working well, they will drop it without even noticing it. #culture #feedback #constructability #agilecoaching #ricardojmestre

Syllabus:

The IC-Agile Certified Agile Coach (ICC-ACP) Training is a workshop for Agilists who wish to dramatically increase their overall agile coaching skills and effectiveness.

The course addresses the complex environments in which most Agile teams (and Agile Coaches) operate.

As an Agile Coach, you are not only tasked with getting your team set up and running well, you may also be faced with the broader organizational landscape that is not as “agile-enabling” as needed. The IC-Agile Certified Agile Coach (ICC-ACP) Training addresses this complexity head-on.

The course delivers the key agile coaching content, skills and mindsets, all built on a transformational education platform. It is highly interactive and experiential.

Loads of fun (and Lego)on yesterday’s Agile Connect Aveiro Meetup

Had a lot of fun on yesterday’s @agile_connect Meetup that took place in Aveiro, Portugal. Fantastic to see so many AHA moments during the Scrum Simulation 🙂

Our teams were building… an Island, a luxury Island… actually a model in Lego. Great fun and great learning, what else can you ask more?
