This episode, Joekub is super excited to get to spend time with an agile coaching pioneer, Michael Spayd.

If you've ever done the constellation retrospective or information gathering exercise with a bunch of people in a room before.. it's kinda like that, but with crazy insightful and system changing insights that can help an organisation to adapt.
