A Vision Board (aka dream board\, treasure map\, action board…) is a collage of images\, pictures\, and affirmations of o ne’s intentions and visions for the future\, designed to serve as a sour ce of inspiration and motivation. As a friend put it\, “It’s a way of al igning intention with attention.” Get your hands on your goal setting. C reating a Vision Board is a perfect activity whether you’re seeking some thing new in your life (job\, living situation\, relationship\, etc.)\, or want to put what you have in a better balance\, or want to have fun s etting goals for what comes next! Diana Larsen will give a context for s et up\, offer a few words of guidance\, and supply materials including m agazines to cut up\, images already clipped\, the best glue\, some blank poster boards\, and a few past boards as examples. There will be a bask et for donations to help with materials expenses. You will bring:1) your own scissors for cutting paper (necessary)2) a couple of magazines that capture your interest (optional) Note: Photo and graphic filled materia ls work better than text heavy ones.3) a poster board or cardboard for c ollaging (also optional) Note: In addition to posters\, you can turn lef tover heavy cardboard shoeboxes into effective reminders (and storage!) through collage. Also blank books.4) your preferred snacks and a sack lu nch to help your inspiration and sustain your energy. We’ll have room fo r about 12-14 people. For more information about Vision Boarding\, check out https://www.wikihow.com/Make-a-Vision-Board. Also a search on Visio n Board images will bring up many examples. Yours doesn’t need to look l ike any of them. If you aren't going to be able to make it\, please upda te your RSVP so that we know how many to expect. Parking:Use the Gotham Building Parking lot on the corner of N Page St and N Borthwick Ave. Bui lding Entry:Entry to the building is best through the door by Little Got ham Coffee. We'll have someone meeting on time attendees at the door. Fo r those that run a few minutes late due to traffic or other reasons out of your control\, there will be directions at the door on how to contact someone to let you in.

Mark with a plus + if you agree with the topic and want to discuss it\, or a minus - if you disagree and want to discuss it\, mark it with a dot if you want to hear the discussion and maybe join in. You can put all votes on one\, one across many\, however you feel. Each mark counts as one vote. \;\n \;\n**Step 4:** The t op vote-getting stickies are placed in the ToDo column\, ordered by the stickies with the most votes at the top. In an Agile fashion\, we'll use groupings of ToDo\, Doing\, Done and Lessons learned. \;\n \;\n** Step 5:** Each of these stickies are discussed for 5 minutes\, most vote s first. The facilitator takes a quick "\;Cesar"\; (thumbs up/do wn) vote at the five-minute timer\, and she moves on for three more minu tes if the discussion still has majority interest. When complete\, move the sticky over to the Done column.

It's a great way to have real\, focused dialogue and we often discuss matters of agile\, lean and such - but anything goes. As far as the mechanics\, here's the format we'll follow: Step 1: Everybody writes down proposed topics on s tickies\, placing them in the center of the table. Take as much time as needed\, but typically takes only 3-5 minutes (or whenever coffee is rea dy). Step 2: Each topic is briefly described by its writer to get a flav or for the subject (15-30 seconds typically per sticky). Step 3: Each pe rson gets five votes which they indicate by marking the voted-for sticky with their Sharpie. Mark with a plus + if you agree with the topic and want to discuss it\, or a minus - if you disagree and want to discuss it \, mark it with a dot if you want to hear the discussion and maybe join in. You can put all votes on one\, one across many\, however you feel. E ach mark counts as one vote. Step 4: The top vote-getting stickies are p laced in the ToDo column\, ordered by the stickies with the most votes a t the top. In an Agile fashion\, we'll use groupings of ToDo\, Doing\, D one and Lessons learned. Step 5: Each of these stickies are discussed fo r 5 minutes\, most votes first. The facilitator takes a quick "\;Ces ar"\; (thumbs up/down) vote at the five-minute timer\, and she moves on for three more minutes if the discussion still has majority interest . When complete\, move the sticky over to the Done column. Rinse and rep eat. Step 6: wrap-up thoughts at the end - what one idea or person did y ou most enjoy\, then break for home/drinks/cover.\n\nTags: meetup:event= tjcbbryzkbcc\, meetup:group=AgilePDX-User-Group-Portland-Metro\, softwar e development\, extreme programming\, scrum\, agile project management\, test driven development\, agile testing\, kanban\, lean startup\, compu ter programming\, Agile Coaching\, agilepdx\n\nImported from: http://cal agator.org/events/1250475814 SUMMARY:AgilePDX User Group - Portland Metro - Lean Coffee in the North LOCATION:Percipio Consulting Group: 722 N Page St\, Suite 2\, Portland or 97227 us SEQUENCE:3 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
