Agile is about continuous improvement. How do get inspiration for new things to try to improve? We look in many places: books, blog posts, colleagues. However these all take time. Need new ideas in your lunch-break?
Our suggestion is to watch one TED video each day at lunch for a week
Then see how you can use those ideas at work. If you aren’t familiar with TED, they are short (<20 minutes) talks by fantastic speakers on a range of different topics: Technology, Education and Design. Here are a few of our favourite's to get you started: Simon Sinek – How Great Leaders Inspire Action
Daniel Pink – The Surprising Science of Motivation
Brene Brown – The Power of Vulnerability
Malcolm Gladwell – On choice, happiness and spaghetti sauce
Happy watching. If you find some other good ones, please share in the comments.
I love TED videos! Thanks for the great post.
Amanda Palmers TED talk on asking is also one of my favourites. Its amazingly inspiring.
