Soul mission

 * My soul mission is building high performing communities.
 * All my life a worked in IT, designing and implementing technology.
 * In my vision the people that are involved play a big role in the success of the project.
 * Egagement
 * How do you make sure everybody is involved?
 * How do you share the actions that have to be done? Asana, Trello, etc.
 * How do you share knowledge? Documents or also a wiki? Also a public wiki?
 * Trust
 * How to build trust in a team? According to Simon Sinek it's about consistency. If you brush your teeth everyday your teeth will not fall out. See
 * Talent
 * What are the talents of the people involved?
 * How can you create an environment where people can learn more about their talents?
 * Motivation
 * How can you stimulate intrinsic motivation? Give people responsibility? Talk about their ideas? What are next steps?
 * Agile/scrum
 * The Agile/ scrum philosophy can be very helpfull to build action driven teams.
 * For me next steps are implementing the Scaled Agile Framework and/ or implement Lean to stimulate continuous improvment from a business perspective.

Coaching

 * In FoodStory and Gather I'm practicing my coaching skills.
 * Do I need a vision? Or does coaching starts with asking questions?
 * See also GROW. A program that is focused on personal and team development.

Social organizing

 * Werken Agile/ scrum, transparantie ook in zwermen?
 * Kun je een stad in beweging krijgen? Of een hele samenleving? De lerende samenleving? Society 3.0.
 * In Q3 2017 gaan we voor Gather, Part-up en een tennisbaan The Community Canvas invullen.

Leiderschap

 * In een talk met Simon Sinek gaat het over de transformatie die je moet doormaken als je een leider wil zijn.
 * De komende jaren wil ik ontdekken hoe je die transformatie maakt.

To-do

 * Speak last: Simon Sinek tells in a talk about the father of Nelson Mandela. His father was head of a tribe and at tribe meetings the leaders sat in a circle and the father of Nelson Mandela always spoke last. He didn't nod his head. He only asked questions.
 * Talenten: Mijn talenten zijn: positiviteit, nieuwsgierigheid. Ik ben een dromer, maar ook goed in staat om de volgende stap te zetten.
 * Social organizing: Sinds 2015 ben ik aan het experimenteren met social organizing. In eerste instantie bij Seats2meet en Part-up, vanaf 2017 ook bij Gather (creatieve zwerm in Haarlem).
 * Implementatie/ verandering:
 * Hoe zorg je dat een implementatie succesvol wordt uitgevoerd?
 * In juli 2017 krijg ik de feedback van mijn Agile coach dat ik als scrum master veel te veel zaken naar me toe trek.
 * Ik zit veel te veel op de stoel van de product owner. Ga het gesprek aan met de product owner en praat over zijn/ haar verantwoordelijkheden.
 * Verdiep je ook in de scrum values. Zie Scrum values
 * In Q3 ben ik een epic meeting aan het organiseren om ervoor te zorgen dat we vanuit het project team t.a.v. bepaalde uitdagingen ook hulp krijgen van het management.
 * Teams: Hoe bouw je een succesvol team?
