I am a dad, husband, comic geek, mac bigot. I work at LeadingAgile. If I could ingest only one thing, it would be coffee.

Tim (@plotboy) talks about visualizing your work and how it helps offload the #cognitive demand placed on our brains and short-term #memory. Once visualized, the task/activity is no longer occupying precious blocks of #cognition and allows us to #focus on other things like, say, seeing patterns in our work.

Tim and I will talk about this and more in the Guided #PersonalKanban class coming up in May.

- How do you _do_ your work?
- How do you #prioritize your work?
- How do you organize your work?
- How do you complete your work?

If you or your team would like to know more, we'd love to have you join in and talk about your context.

[Part Agile @partagile]

Had a great "Jam Session" with friend and co-collaborator @mrsungo. We chatted about #meetings that work and how Modus Institute's course "Meetings That Work" helped us to bring a new perspective into our respective teams.

Regardless of your role within your org, there are many opportunities to actually get together with your peers and create value.

Inaugural episode so please forgive some tech glitches here and there. Your feedback to any improvement would be greatly appreciated.
