We started this series on remote agile with looking into practices and tools, followed by exploring virtual Liberating Structures, and how to master Zoom. We had a look at common remote agile anti-patterns, and we analyzed remote Retrospectives based on Liberating Structures. This sixth article now dives into organizing a remote Sprint Planning with a distributed team: practices, virtual Liberating Structures, and lessons learned.
Welcome to the 238th edition of the Food for Agile Thought newsletter, shared with 26,169 peers. This week, we delve into the findings of the latest Software Development Culture and Methods Report—spoiler alert: Liberating Structures are becoming something big—; we differentiate between different development levels of distributed organizations, and we learn that Zoom is safe to use despite all of the fear-mongering.
We also explore the differences between Impact Mapping and various other product frameworks; we embrace the idea that product discovery does not require a product team to be co-located, and we revisit the shift of product planning to customer-centricity.
Lastly, we applaud Dave Dame for sharing with us how he navigates the struggles of Cerebral Palsy.

Welcome to the 237th edition of the Food for Agile Thought newsletter, shared with 26,112 peers. This week, we are warming up to the idea that Work From Home is here to stay.

We also dive into collaboration & conflict as a product leader; we learn how to discover customers without leaving the office, and we dare to see the crisis as an opportunity, inspecting proven innovation frameworks in the process.
