Artful Making for Trainers and Coaches

This workshop is offered in partnership with Agile Learning Labs of San Francisco. Full information on this workshop can be seen here.

Lee Devin’s Artful Making for Trainers & Coaches is not a talk. There are no slides. It is an interactive workshop in which everyone participates.

We all know folks who seem to be naturally creative, outrageously productive, somehow able to do things we can’t do. We call them “talented”, “artistic”, “super intelligent”, or some other word that means they’ve got an inherent ability that we don’t have.

Thing is, most of what we call talent is actually skill, and can be learned. Not only can it be learned (by you), but it can be practiced, and you can get better at it with practice.

Based on the ideas discussed in the book Artful Making: What Managers Need to Know About How Artists Work , and with a focus on generating and building high-performing, collaborative Agile teams this session offers an introduction to some of the skills and exercises that will help you reach your creative potential. The exercises are derived from those used by the artists whose work is most like software development: actors.
