The Agile Pubcast

In this episode, Geoff and Paul meander around discussing Paul's lack of focus on mundane tasks towards how we as coaches and faciliators maintain "presence" and help others to maintain their focus too.

From The Long Bar, Bristol. It's been a long time since our last episode, but Geoff and Paul are back! Taking a short break in our busy schedules brought us together for a catch up in Bristol, where we discussed everything from karaoke singing to kanban training! We hope you enjoy the episode, and we hope to get back to a more frequent recording schedule!

"I’m not the pheasant plucker, I’m the pheasant plucker’s son. I’m only plucking pheasants ’til the pheasant plucker comes."

(This rhyme was first published in 1899 and should be recited with care and not in front of children.)

Are you superstitious? Do you believe in ‘luck’? In this episode, Paul shares his excitement about an upcoming football match for his favourite team and whether his superstitions about the game are a good or bad thing. The conversation moves onto being “lucky” and how an agile approach could quickly proves or disprove a lucky occurrence. Enjoy!

Hello there! (In the style of Obi-Wan Kenobi!)

This next episode is a recording from our appearance at Product Tank Cardiff, where Geoff and Paul were invited to host a LIVE pubcast to field some questions from the product people in the crowd. The boys took on questions such as:

❓Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) is moving forward as breakneck speed. What (if any) changes do you see for Agile?

❓Agile vs. Scaled Agile?

❓What trait in product managers do you see least yet value the most?

❓How should product teams deal with senior management over involving themselves in the roadmap?

As the event happened on Star Wars Day (4th May) this called for fancy dress and even a Star Wars themed pub quiz!!
