Tips for a good operating rhythm:
1. The conversation is more important
than the card
2. Be sharp and efficient
3. Focus on movement and changes
4. Call out blockers or impediments
5. Always have a facilitator
6. The more you pull to work on at the
same time, the less you'll get done

remotely)
● We can find better ways of
working by doing it

improved?
