"You better bring it!
Oh, it's already been broughten!"
The purpose of cheerleading is to support and encourage their team to achieve peak performance - they give the team the extra oomph to carry them over the goal line! The cheerleaders not only support and celebrate the wins, they also encourage the team when they need to push through their trials and tribulations. Cheerleaders build the hype of the team fans by creating infectious energy, just imagine your stakeholders hyped up because of your awesome team!
In this session we will take lessons from professional cheerleading and apply them in an agile team context.
We will cover the 3 pillars of agile cheerleading - chants, dances, and symbols and explore the fundamentals and benefits of an agile cheer so that you can super-charge your teams.
BE! AGILE! BE! BE AGILE!
