Our local agile ALN group has an annual tradition of doing lightning talks on the last meeting (November) of the year. The group coordinator kindly asked me if I wanted to participate and, since I was in town, I enthusiastically agreed.
But then the hard part began. I would have 5-minutes to talk about anything I wanted to. But only 5-minutes.
I struggled to figure out what to focus on until the day of the meeting. The pressure was building. And yes, I had a gazillion ideas that I could share, but nothing had risen to the top. Around 2 pm something came to me.
