Abstract
Agile and Lean embrace the idea that teams and organizations pull prioritized work. But what happens when work gets pushed on a team or organization? If you’ve seen this anti-pattern, you’re no longer dealing with work “intake” — you’re dealing with work “entry.” Pushing work kills sustainable pace and consistent flow of value delivery. Mastering the work intake challenge could very well make or break your career. Or even your company.
In this session, we’ll start by defining work intake. Then, we’ll focus on how work enters different levels of organizations and discuss strategies for recognizing and solving work intake anti-patterns.

I’ve served thriving organizations as a Scrum Master, Agile Coach, Senior Agile Coach, Release Train Engineer, and mentor. I’ve even been fortunate enough to speak at a few conferences. When I’m not working with people and teams, you can find me with my family or maybe even making music as TLNGO.”
