Live from Paradise Perks, Jon and Vic use the lean coffee format to discuss the following topics:
- Agile Games and Gamification
- Scrum as a gamification platform
- techniques used by people like Bryan Beecham (@BillyGarnet) at Iceberg Ideas
- Agile in Japan
- referenced The New New Product Development Game by Takeuchi and Nonaka, 1986
- Training, Taboos and Readiness
- Jon’s favorite book: Training from the Back of the Room by Sharon L Bowman
- Recursion: Use it or Lose it
- Jim McCarthy (Software for your Head, the Booted, etc.)
- Jon brought up the movie Ed Wood starring Johnny Depp, but I thought he said “Elwood” and completely missed the reference – lol
- Big Plan Up Front (BPUF) vs Just In Time (JIT) plans vs No plans
- does no plan = no estimates?
