Austin and Chris discuss a foundational and essential element to organizational excellence: Servant Leadership.

We continue the series on Organizational Excellence by describing the Diffusion of Innovation Theory (https://trello.com/c/9OdDqJ8C/135-diffusion-of-innovation) and discussing practically how it applies to changes of any kind (e.g. agile transformations, culture shifts, etc.) for teams/companies large and small.

We discuss with Rob Myers (https://twitter.com/agilecoach) the Next "Extreme" Methodology, TDD is Not Dead, and Leadership & Tech Practices. 

We discuss with Jeff Patterson (https://twitter.com/ciridium) on building the mob programming community, 2 hour transformations, and mob virtues.

Chris and Austin discuss how everything that may seem like advice from them is really “just sharing… and not recommending.” It is not just a saying, but stems from an agile mindset rooted in the Cynefin Framework (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cynefin_framework) and a culture of experimentation.
