This is a story about getting the French edition my Agile Retrospectives book, Tirer profit des rétrospectives agiles, delivered in paperback via Amazon in France. I ordered it while being on holiday in France.
I have been interviewed by Noopur Pathak for Innovation Roots about how I collaborated with my customer on my first project, doing agile when the Agile Manifesto wasn't invented yet, and later got more inspired by agile.
Several talks and workshops that I'm giving in the autumn have been announced: I'm doing sessions about Agile Retrospectives, Agile Self-assessments, and Dealing with Impediments at the Agile Greece Summit, Agile Cambridge, Lean Agile Scotland, Agile Day Bosnia, and Lean Kanban France.
I will give a mini-workshop Dealing Effectively with Impediments at Bosnia Agile Day: one-day event that brings world-wide Agile Evangelists, leading Agile experts, practitioners and innovators together to share their experiences, expertise, enthusiasm and knowledge.
I will be playing the impediment game at Lean Kanban France 2017. Also doing a full day workshop on November 28: Getting More out of Agile and Lean.
I will be playing the Agile Self-assessment Game with teams at Lean Agile Scotland in a 90 minute mini-workshop
