Public Training Schedule Changes: Your Last Chance to Take a Public Class

Years ago, I saw blues legend Pinetop Perkins perform in Austin. He was 95 years old and still playing incredible boogie woogie piano.

What’s remarkable is that Perkins hadn’t started as a piano player. He’d been a guitarist until an injury forced him to stop playing guitar entirely.

So he adapted.

I love that story because it reflects something important about agile teams as well as life in general: the need to inspect and adapt while staying true to what matters most.

Over the years, Mountain Goat Software has taken many forms: books, public classes, coaching, video courses, podcasts, online communities, and AI tools.

But the constant has always been helping teams succeed.

More and more teams are asking us to work directly with them inside their organizations. Teams want training tailored to their specific challenges, schedules, products, and ways of working.

So we’re adapting.

After our current public schedule finishes, we’ll be stepping away from public classes and focusing our attention on private team workshops and consulting engagements.

I’m excited about this next chapter.

It’s rewarding to work closely with teams, helping them solve real problems in real time, and seeing improvements take hold inside the work itself.

I’ll still be talking about agile, teaching, writing, and experimenting for a long time yet. Whether I’ll still be doing it at 95 with Pinetop Perkins energy…who knows?

If you’ve been thinking about joining one of our public classes, this is the final run, and we’d love to have you there.
