Today, after about a month @AgileCrete 2022 is completed and as we are getting ready for @AgileGRRetreat, I remembered a tiny article I wrote back in 2015 about the reasons I prefer #openspace events vs one-way conferences. My arguments are still valid https://t.co/tx4xCXEbkG
After @AgileCrete, next stop @AgileGRRetreat. I am sure it will be similarly inspiring and enjoyable. I am looking forward meeting old and new friends there in October.
During @AgileCrete 2022 I took some time after the end of the first day to introduce a fellow engineer to TDD. Today he texted me to let me know that he used it for the first time in a professional context. I literally can't describe how happy this made me! Huge serotonin hit!!
We are really happy we participated one more year. We've learned a lot, shared our experiences and made new friends. We'll do our best to continue supporting the future events as well.
It's a wrap!!
After 3 days, 44 open space sessions, 2 excursions, 3 dinners, 1 night with Cretan dancing and countless face-to-face interactions, #AgileCrete2022 is Done ✅
We're full of inspiration and ideas about how to evolve the event! Watch this space!
See you next year!!
Day 3/3!!
After a night with Cretan music and dancing and sessions that lasted till the early morning hours, time for the last sessions of this year's Open Space!!
Day 2 - the open space part!
Can't wait for another round of sessions after inspiration drawn from excursion to winery last night and Balos this morning!
An adventure lived on one of Crete's most unique settings!
Shifting sands, discussions about decentralized organizations and more, a beach to ourselves and... even a bit of rain!!
What a wonderful morningto inspire our afternoon sessions at #AgileCrete
Tonight we visit the local Manousakis winery to have a tasting experience, followed by an accompanying dinner, in order to stimulate the flow of ideas and conversation. All of this is thanks to the support of @foryouandyourc1 and @cytechltd !
