Workshop Ideas - Topics you would attend

[ncancelliere]

I want to thank everyone for coming to the workshop last weekend.
Suzy and Sharon did a fantastic job facilitating a talk on
retrospectives. We had a full class, great participation, and even
new goodies provided for by RallyDev.

I'd like to share what participants are asking for in terms of topics
they're interested in, in rank order:

Lean Thinking (12) [Coming April]
Sprint Planning and Review (12)
Team Collaboration (11)
Estimation Techniques (10) [Coming March]
Backlog Creation and Management (9)
Daily Scrums (9)
Release Planning (9)
Philosophy of Agile (7)
Sprint "n" (6)
Rocket Ships and Flying Green Dragons (1) :-)

We will be holding a workshop on Estimation March 14th at 9:00am -
noon. It'll cover what estimating is, when to use estimates, and a
few techniques for estimating small iterations. It'll be facilitated
by Anthony Oden. Registration will be online in the next few days,
I'll announce it here as always.

In late April we'll be holding a workshop on Lean. Stay tuned for
more details.

Would you like to help facilitate one of the topics above? Are you
passionate about a particular Agile topic you don't see listed, but
would like to? Feel free to contact me and I'll do all I can to
help. AgileAustin through a partnership with ACC provides the rooms,
RallyDev the refreshments, so you only need to provide the content.
We handle all the advertising, registration, etc. to make the
experience as easy as possible.
