Hi Diane,

Thanks for your encouragement going into Quebec next week!

The reality is that you (and others here) have helped to sharpen and refine and improve the message I am now delivering. I think I am very fortunate in this regard. Thanks to all of you and especially Diane, for your help.

I wonder if we will begin to see the effective use of invitation, in Agile adoptions, in the next few years...hmm, let's see what develops.

Cordialement,
Dan

Here are some links to articles on Open Agile Adoption that are appearing on INFOQ:

Here is a 16-minute video that pretty much explains the problems with the standard Agile adoption practices:

As keynote speaker on Agile and Open Space next week at the Quebec City conference (your email and link below), Dan, your key message is likely to be around "invitation" as we have heard from you recently.

The spirit of "invitation' is really based on the fundamental element of the OS approach, that of letting go. Letting go of control. You modelled detachment in many exchanges that you initiated or participated to recently on this List, despite the fact that some discussions may have challenged elements of the method you promoted for years, and published on. Kudos! To help people get it, good idea also to spread when you can, these 2 magic easy to remember words that somewhat sum up OST: letting go.

Enjoy!

Diane
