During breakout sessions, demonstrations, and conversations addressing practices, tools, process, methodology, and community and culture, participants are asked to consider and respond to the following questions:
- How do we improve?
- How do we recognize new improvements?
- What improvements in the past led us to where we are now?
- How do we decide which improvements to make?
- What values drive our decisions for improvement?
- What improvements can we be making right now?
- What obstructions impede improvement?
- What improvements are on the horizon?
- How can we adapt easier to the changes that improvements bring?
- What are the practices and processes that enable improvement?
