Let’s Meetup and discuss the “arc” for problems in software development

Join us at a New location in West Knoxville!

We are thrilled to have an awesome Agile mentor, author, coach, and teacher, Don Gray, come back again to facilitate Part 2 of Solving Software Problems. Check out his website; http://www.donaldegray.com/ especially his endorsements also to really see the depth he brings.

The four essential difficulties:

– Complexity
– Conformity
– Changeability
– Invisibility

The “arc” for problems in software development:
1. Experiencing solving different classes of problems (June 2017) “All Problems are not Created Equal”
2. Sense-making and Problems (soon?)
3. Experiments – Moving to better fit for function

Join us from 7-9 at Casual Pint in Hardin Valley, be sure to grab a bite to eat before or after. Recruitwise graciously sponsored the room for us. Don will begin his interactive teaching at 7:30.

Let’s Meetup and discuss Solving Software Problems Part II on a Tuesday

Since part 1 of Solving Software Problems was such a hit, we are honored to have an awesome Agile mentor, author, coach, and teacher, Don Gray, come back again from North Carolina to facilitate Part 2.

For those that weren’t able to attend or you want to learn more, you can learn about his experience and everything he does, like coach sessions with Esther Derby by checking out his website; http://www.donaldegray.com/ Be sure to check out his endorsements also to really see the depth he brings.

Solving Software Problems
Creative problem solving is the essence of software development. We never solve the same problem twice. We reuse previous solutions (or parts of them) when possible. But every application has novelty, a newness and difference that requires fresh thinking. Otherwise we’d use the existing application.

However all problems are not created equal. In this session we’ll experience solving different types of problems. We’ll explore similarities and differences. What happens when we use an improper solving heuristic?

Join us and have fun exploring the world of problem solving!

Food will be provided by RecuitWise! 🙂
We will begin at 6:30, session will begin at 7 as usual, and wrap up around 8.

Come prepared to learn and participate!

Let me know if you have any questions. Looking forward to seeing everyone there!
