We've got news RE: Modus' #PersonalKanban Guided classes. But 1st a hint: What do Violet Beauregarde, heated solids, & @ModusInstitute have in common? #expansion #dadjoke #eyeroll #LAVM #kanban #agile linkedin.com/pulse/doing-co…

Awake and talking...after lunch! Autonomy = a neural reward. And as conferred via #LeanCoffee, agency is a stimulant far more powerful (and certainly more sustainable!) than caffeine. #kanban #personalkanban #LAVM

The Collaboration Equation is live & for sale world wide. Learn to go beyond Agile and Lean by going to the roots: Collaboration. Individuals in teams create value. In the upcoming weeks, I'll explore themes & topics in the deep, practical, beautiful book. loom.ly/8RLIg3M

Some days working's a treat. Smart minds, creativity, & challenging conversation. In this episode (& the next four) of Collaborwocky, Jurgen Appelo J.B. Rainsberger, & I talk collaboration. This topic, suggested by Jurgen, it is Philosophy of Conversation. loom.ly/g9XfLbQ

Un grand merci à @iObeya. 🙏🏼

“Teams should define their work, figure out what is needed and when, look at the complexity, and collaborate to create a way of working that allows them to be the best professionals they can be.” — @ourfounder link.medium.com/kmEMx6nEQtb

When we hear "beneficial constraint" we often think in terms of promoting process flow. What I love about this #Collaborwocky interview w/ @denderello is how - thru visualizing work in an #obeya, he promotes *psychological flow* which, in turn, begets process flow. #lean #agile

Jim and Toni have had a blast hosting Modus' #Collaborwocky series. If you're interested in #collaboration #psychsafety #lean #agile #visualization & #humanework in general - w/out the dogma (and with a bit of cheek!) - be sure to subscribe to our YouTube channel. ⬇️⬇️⬇️

@bitNomad @StefanW @ourfounder I loved that you noticed ;- ) - Toni

@StefanW @ourfounder @ModusInstitute I really dig the spectral sweep and drone honk of the @ModusInstitute intro; is the tiled head (case) motion synched with the sound?

Dependencies are a myth, a self-inflicted wound. Your skills get stuck in anti-collaborative silos. End the tyranny of dependencies by working together with intentionally collaborative cultures. #agile #agilecoaching #scrum #lean #kanban #sixsigma #devops loom.ly/dGG1Jjg
