See you soon Columbus! August 1 - 2  in Columbus, Ohio Register Today:   Re-read Saturday News I am still recovering from a Covid infection I picked up at or getting to Agile 2022. All in all I have been lucky (and prepared) and have weathered a mild brush with this disease. My chest still feels like I was mugged, but every day I am getting better. The lack of self-awareness that I was getting sick until things were full-blown is fairly startling. It was more startling when I was re-reading Chapter 3 of Coaching Agile Teams by Lyssa Adkins (SPaMCAST Amazon affiliate line - buy a copy) again this week in preparation to write this essay.  Previous Installments Week 1: -   Week 2: -   Week 3: -   Week 4: -     Next SPaMCAST  We will map the attributes of flow explored in SPaMCAST 708 to a basic palette of flow metrics.
