  • Looking forward to the Lean Coffee Kanban. Haven't been to a Lean Coffee meeting - looks like a good method to learn.

  • Hey,

    What is the GetKanban game? Sounds enticing. I'm bringing fun into
    agile daily standups with a physical ball and apps called the
    Scrumball. (thescrumball.com)

    Best,

  • Hie Jonathan. I don't live in NYC at the moment, so I think the group is rather much dead. I let meetup charge my credit card for another year and I'm happy to transfer this to somebody who can revive it.
