A collection of agile active learning exercises

Let’s assume you talk to people at work and sometimes have to facilitate agile learning or large meetings.  You don’t want to have a boring meeting or equally boring lecture now do you?

If you want to break out of boring and enter into engaging, this is the presentation for you.  I will be running a series of games, active learning exercises, videos and more.  These are techniques that you can tailor or use directly at your job.  If you’re already familiar with some of the basic agile games (paper airplane or passing pennies), don’t worry, this is going to be new and unusual activities that you probably haven’t seen before.

The best part about this presentation is that it’s going to be fun.

April Meeting - Coaching Isn't Just For Agile Coaches Any More

April Meeting - Coaching Isn't Just For Agile Coaches Any More

When: April 11th, 2019  (Second Thursday) 

Where: Callibrity Complex (Building Next Door) 4445 Lake Forest Dr Suite 170 Blue Ash, OH 45242

Time: 6:00 - 7:30 pm (networking starts at 5:30 pm)

Coaching Isn't Just For Agile Coaches Any More

Coaching is a useful skill that anyone can learn and apply, whether you are an Agile Coach or not. Quickly learn about the coaching mode of Agile Coaching from five fun games. In "Flash Card Coaching," you will witness the power of powerful questions and the value of coaching by using only preset questions to do a full coaching session.

There are three categorization games where you will work together in small groups to learn about powerful questions, giving advice, and the differences between the 4 modes of Agile Coaching.

Finally, there are two "Choose Your Own Coaching Adventure" games. These are just like the old "Choose Your Own Adventure" games. Your choices lead down a path that either leads a successful coaching outcome or an unhappy coachee. Each unhappy ending comes with an explanation and you can always back up and try again.
