@MarkGraban Of course, just let me know when and where!

[John Chacon @LeanLikeAChacon]

.@RealMikeRother hello, Mike would you be willing to private message me? I’d like to get your thoughts on something. Thanks for considering

[John Chacon @LeanLikeAChacon]

@RealMikeRother This is one of the biggest obstacles in coaching starter katas. Coaching folks to translate our ‘Problem’ into a ‘Challenge’. It’s interesting to see a ‘Problem’ mindset vs a ‘Challenge’ mindset

[John Chacon @LeanLikeAChacon]

@RealMikeRother very good sir, thank you.

[John Chacon @LeanLikeAChacon]

@RealMikeRother the more we extend our kata reach...the more we get challenged on the kata verbiage. should we be open to our audience's vernacular? If so, what are the unintended consequences in your experience?

[John Chacon @LeanLikeAChacon]

@MarkGraban Great book! Read it twice and install some reflection time after each chapter. There are so many gems in here that it is difficult soak the info in after just one pass.

[John Chacon @LeanLikeAChacon]

@Tracey_san you do not get enough credit for these sketches! great stuff, thank you

[John Chacon @LeanLikeAChacon]

@MarkGraban @RealMikeRother PBC is our next Target Condition in the maturity of our Kata practices

[John Chacon @LeanLikeAChacon]

@MarkGraban just finished your book #MeasuresOfSuccess . Outstanding read! Thank you for continuing to share your experience and knowledge.

[John Chacon @LeanLikeAChacon]

@RealMikeRother thank you, i do have some things to consider looking back.

[John Chacon @LeanLikeAChacon]

@RealMikeRother I am having some challenges with explaining to Learners the appropriate level or "elevation" to establish Vision, Challenge, and then Target Condition. Some learners deliver a Challenge thats "in the weeds" and others deliver "pie in the sky". Thoughts?

[John Chacon @LeanLikeAChacon]

@MarkGraban i like them if there is actual curiosity backing the question. If the open ended question is only asked to make your own point, then i think we have lost the intended spirit of the coach-learner dynamic

[John Chacon @LeanLikeAChacon]

Our teams are just getting better and better. Practicing their PDSA cycles via kata! #lean #kata #starterkata #kataInTheClassRoom #ToyotaKataPracticeGuide @RealMikeRother

@RealMikeRother Thank you for your time. This page reads different for me now compared to when I first read it. Thanks for the coaching and context!

@HumansLean @MarkGraban 😂Twitter shots fired at my dude!

[John Chacon @LeanLikeAChacon]

@RealMikeRother 1C,2C,TC,Test...why doesnt the CK follow the same sequence? CK asks for the TC first then the 2C (Current Condition). Thoughts?
