If you have not seen the back story on the question of the week, the quick version is that weekly I provide a framing question for my coaching sessions with my direct reports.

Inspired by re-reading some books on Scrum, this weeks question has been about waste.  Since my team has a diverse set of people, in our face to face discussions I tend to adjust how I express the question to suit the person.  Here are some examples:

• Where is our team creating waste?
• Where are we wasting time?
• What resources are we wasting?
• Where do you see waste?
• What things are you doing that you perceive as a waste?
• What do you as causing waste in our organization?
