Review of Mary Q’s 2 week Agile Sprints deck
Many meetings required. Needs discussion as people may not have the time
Danny: how long are sprint meetings? 2 hours. Could try at 1 hour or 90 mins.
Mary feels we should use the Agile method, but board needs to decide how much time they can devote
Mary H: marketing very important, but we need to get beyond the basics. Suggests we try the agile approach for a month or two before deciding this is right approach
Danny: we need all hands on deck for sprint calls. Will create an email template for interviews; wonders if we can do a grant, but we need to get started first. Suggests Agile may not be necessary in earliest stages of strategic planning. We may not need weekly meetings at earliest stage of project. Or short meetings, based on the content
Cindy: start with full team communication, then alter depending upon circumstances
