Abstract:
Nearly everybody has been to the Gym. You go in January 2nd, they show you around, give you a little coaching, you pay your dues… and you never go back. You know you should though. You really ought to, but you’re very busy. Does that remind you of your typical agile training experience?
But what if we did things differently? What if instead of signing up for a 2 day class, you were to join an Agile gym. Maybe twice each week you go into the gym to “work out”. Perhaps you could join others on occasional expeditions to test your skills. What if the gym became a place where experimentation took place and the results were shared with the members?
Together we will explore the ideas behind creating an Agile Gymnasium: a place where training is based on experimental results. A place where training improves your performance in the real world.

Learning Outcomes:
  • Learn how to apply experimentation to agile training methods
  • Explore new models for bringing long term training to teams
  • Learn categories of learning activities that can be used for training, expeditions, and in the real world
