[OSList] : Open Agile Adoption course April 23-24 DC

[Rosa Zubizarreta]

Hi Dan,

Really appreciating what you've created here, with the "Open Agile
Adoption" model...
wish I could be there! And, I'm very much looking forward to reading your
book,
which I've just ordered.

Would love to explore with you sometime,
what Dynamic Facilitation<https://d3gqux9sl0z33u.cloudfront.net/AA/AL/diapraxis/downloads/271633/ODP-V45_No1-Zubizarreta.pdf>
can
offer to the agile manager's skill set.

Oh and, much appreciate the Tavi perspective on OS, as well!

all best wishes,

Rosa
