Notice I didn’t include Agile frameworks, scaling, Enterprise coaching, ACGW, my book, or anything else directly related to Agile.
Notice I didn’t include AI or certifications. I don’t think you could achieve any of these with a 2-day certification class or a 2-hour micro-certification class.
Notice all of these seem to be experiential and behavioral.
BTW: It’s my birthday today…Happy Birthday to the Moose!
Stay agile AND Badass, my friends,
Bob.
