In case you missed it in our September newsletter, Diana Larsen is now a contributing expert for The Agile Network which will hold its Global Launch starting on Tuesday, October 8th. This virtual event will offer 24+ hours of free livestreams and exclusive content, featuring Agile luminaries and business agility experts from all around the world.
The Pacific NW Software Quality Conference is an annual event dedicated to better methods for developing and testing software projects. This year marks the 42nd year for PNSQC and features the theme The Future is Now! One of Diana’s favorites, she’ll be in attendance again this year as a participant, workshop facilitator, and invited speaker.
Diana is joining Miro’s Agile City Tour next week in San Francisco and Seattle to facilitate sessions on “Lead without Blame: Why and How” where she’ll dive into one of the most crucial aspects of effective leadership - moving beyond blame to build resilient, high-performing teams.

But at some point, someone shared it with someone who got excited about it and shared it but didn’t DO it, so their sharing lost a bit of fidelity, like a copy of a copy.
