Hi,
Last week I spent a lot of time on improving my own skills… so we’ll see how that plays out in the future!
I have been talking about connecting people looking for Scrum Jobs with REAL people who have Scrum Job Openings in their Organization.
Over the past few weeks I have been silently getting names of people who are looking for Scrum Jobs. I expect now that anyone who visits www.implementingscrum.com/scrum-jobs and is looking for a job WILL go out and do this. NOW.
Also… and here is the challenge… if you are in an organization who is looking for a person with Scrum Jobs skills, please go to www.implementingscrum.com/scrum-jobs and see if I can help you make a connection.
What is the fee for this?
FREE. Zero. Zilch. Nada.
Why am I doing this?
Mainly good Karma.
Pass it on! Twitter this link. Retwitter it if you see it. Put it up on FaceBook. E-mail it to your friends. Start to create some buzzzzzz for this. Please.
So… can you help me meet the challenge of actually making the ultimate hook-up of at least one person looking for a Scrum Job with a person in an organization who needs a qualified person here.
Transparency.
Trust.
Walking what I teach…
Let’s see how it works!
Good luck.

Hi all.
First, thanks for hanging in there as a subscriber to the blog — and welcome all new people subscribing to this site!
Here is an update on what’s been happening with me…
I have been offline for a few weeks, testing out a few new things for communication — more real-time with people.
The first one being twitter (www.twitter.com/mvizdos) and the next being Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/people/Mike-Vizdos/1015423803). I have written a post about it in the past (wow — it’s been well over a year!) here.
I have been on the road for a while these past months, and have found that micro-blogging with people I meet at conferences and meetings helps bring the communication gap even closer together (if that makes sense). There is a shift happening here…. what will it mean to you and how your work gets done?
At this point, I’d recommend that if you are interested in reading more about what I do on a “daily” basis then join me on those two networks.
I’ll continue posting new things about Scrum on this site — along with new cartoons (I PROMISE).
Tomorrow you’ll get some requests for information from me to help guide the website at www.implementingscrum.com to new and better heights.
As a community we continue to grow. Your input in extremely valuable in this process.
Thank you!

Hi,
Well, for those of you have been off for the past few weeks… welcome back.
My son and I have been on a road trip for over a week now and plan to end it this Saturday — for a total of almost 3000 miles in the USA. We will continue posting travel updates to the blog this week and if you follow me on twitter you can join in the fun.
Now.
Earlier last month, I promised something SO BIG that it could literally change the face of how people learn about Scrum and teach it to others.
I will unviel it tomorrow night, where ever I land in America on my way back to Virginia.
Too anxious to wait for the announcement you CAN sign up for one on my currently scheduled classes in North America and Europe — from next week in Detriot (woot!) to…. wait for it…. wait for it…
A VERY limited class the last week in January guess where — Richmond, Virginia. I am co-teaching this one with my great friend and past-co-worker Lyssa Adkins (she ROCKS). I promise this class will not be my “normal” class!
You can see them all at www.michaelvizdos.com/enroll.
Looks like after that I will be doing some gigs with clients in Norway and Denmark and then public classses in London and other locations.
Got an idea of a COOL place to bring me this year? Let me know and we can work it out.
2009 will bring some major changes for all of us (yes, including me!). I will start letting you know a little more about “me” (public versus the private facing guy) as well… we are all people and we can learn a lot from others.
Happy New Year and I hope you are STUNNED by the announcement in the next blog entry!
Thank you.

Hi all,
Comics are in the queue. This work life balance takes a lot of work, so I am sorry for not giving you a recent one.
The one I have to show you next ROCKS.
But alas.
Right now, I have posted the following out on Twitter:
mvizdos Hey. Are you a HOT geeky woman in IT? I have an opportunity to discuss. DM me for more information! PLEASE re-tweet to others for me!
Welcome back to yet another week at www.implementingscrum.com.
A cartoon finally! Yeah! Again!
OK, so this one is really a translation for the one I did about Social Networking, something that has been shown to have incredible benefits to Agile Scrum Teams.
Here is the English version for your viewing and reading pleasure.
So what does Me asking You if you’d like to go to bed with me have anything to do with Scrum?
Hmm.
This may require some creative answers.
Or maybe just one.
Honestly I love the French accents and the French [create?!?] some of the worlds best looking women with the best accents (did I say that already) in the world.
That, and besides saying “yes” in French, that is the only phrase I know (back from a hit song in the 1970’s).
So, I want to personally take a moment to thank the French for French Fries (OK… I know… invented and have the best in Belgium) and French Nails and a certain kind of kissing. All goodness.
And.
For someone (Matthieu de Vivie) taking the time to actually put up a translation of what was thought to be a good English version of the cartoon!
