Today we met with Katie from HeadRoom to give us a few pointers for our social media game. Which by the way… we don’t have any game. She set up everything correctly for us and told us what to do from now on. We now have Facebook for Agile Aces and Del Val Agile, LinkedIn…

Ok, so this workshop group needed a little guidance. I think just one or two of them had ever worked with technology before.

We recently invested in our Certified ScrumMaster Certifications. We chose to go to a well-known Scrum Trainer in our area. We spent two days immersed in Scrum activities.

Now that I have more time on my hands we can really start doing some staff augmentation. We have decided to focus on Healthcare and Pharmaceutical Consulting. We firmly believe in Agile and Scrum and we are going to make sure that everyone hired through us has a solid base of the Scrum framework. This…
