How can we meet our commitment to delivering maximum value to the customer? Is Agile even possible with no face-to-face team meetings?  How can we collaborate effectively when not colocated?

In fact, collaboration tools like Zoom allow for a remarkable amount of team interaction, and Agile practitioners have developed a substantial body of knowledge about how to work, facilitate, teach, and coach when everyone is in a different location.

In this session, you will learn how to facilitate awesome meetings and great classes with Zoom. The topics will range from basic mechanics (how to create meetings and share screens) to group dynamics (how to encourage engagement and interaction). The discussion will also examine ways to manage Agile processes and teach and coach Agile organizations online. The session will be conducted online with Zoom (of course).
