Training the Team Member level

Share what you learned so that it can help others who take on this path of service

David Parker user:David Tutored a private 2-day OpenAgile Team Member training on Dec 16-17, 2010 in Foster City, California. Read the participants' "Aha! Moments" in the Reflection Repository.

Learning: Start the training with a small content-based activity instead of typical house-keeping and logistics. I did an exercise called "Sole Mates" that worked well. People walked around looking for a partner with shoes similar to theirs. Then they asked their partner "What is one thing you already know about OpenAgile?" and recorded it on a sticky note. Afterwards, we went around the room introducing our partner to the group, saying "this is David and he knows that Truthfulness is one of the foundations of OpenAgile." Then we posted the sticky notes on the wall for us to look at later and think about how far we came by the end of the training.
