Agile People “Food for Thought” Book Club
Welcome to our Agile People “Food for Thought” Book Club.
In our community, one of the things we value the most is continuous learning and exploration of both new and timeless ideas.
In this age of quick and easy, brief summaries, video presentations, and podcasts, reading books is a luxury many don’t afford.
The great benefit of books however is that we get to access and enjoy the end product of author(s) that have often spent months or years deep-diving into a topic to make it accessible, understandable and useful for folks like us.
In the Agile People community, there are also many of us that love reading, and the great benefit of a book club is that it combines the reading of books, as well as summarizing the key ideas, concepts, takeaways, and learnings that we get from them.
In our Book Club sessions, we aim to create a space for this kind of discussion and exploration, where we can learn from each other.
This is an open event for everyone in our community so please feel free to join us.
