"Culture is to recruiting as product is to marketing." -- The HubSpot Culture Code,      https://network.hubspot.com/culture-code/, a 128 pages slide deck full of great information and thoughts. Worth reading and reusing, this material made my day today 😀👍.

My 1st workshop of the Startup-Week in Duesseldorf https://startupwoche-dus.de/en/ was today about Agile Leadership:

• Presented by the MAERA GmbH from Cologne, https://maera.de/ (only in German)
• Good coverage of the Agile Mindset - Commitment, Focus, Courage, Openness and Respect
• Agile Leadership: Manager versus Leader, Servant Leadership
• Agile Ways-of-Working: Adapt & Inspect, run several iterations
• The learning organization: Try & Learn in e.g. regular retrospectives
• Besides content we did learn something about useful tools and how to run these kind of workshops remotely:
  • Simple file transfer, https://wetransfer.com/
  • Digital workspace for visual collaboration, https://www.mural.co/
  • Lean Coffee, http://leancoffee.org/

In summary a great learning experience, thanks to Monique and Christian for being our host 👍.
