About

Inspect, Adapt, Repeat

The name of my company, Inspect, Adapt, Repeat is just another name for Plan, Do, Check, Adjust or Retrospective, or we learn by doing, or the scientific method, or a myriad of other things. It's this idea that, if we regularly look back and learn from what we've just done, we'll be better informed and make better decisions about what we'll do next.

Who I am

My name is Alan Bell (once, when my name clashed with another, I went by Alan O'Kane) and I'm an agile coach in Wellington, New Zealand. In my work, I often find myself creating various bits and pieces of collateral and this site is designed to collect all of that stuff together so that other people can also use it - should they find value from doing so.

So... this stuff is all free?

Yep! I've learned almost everything I know about this agile stuff thanks to the open, sharing community of "agilistas" I've been lucky enough to work with or otherwise learn from; it's only fair that the stuff I add to the conversation is also freely available to anyone that might be able to make use of it. All I ask is that attribution is fairly made and that there's no attempt to pass my work off as your own. In that vein, if I've missed attributing someone in the creation of all this stuff, please let me know!! I've tried my best but I'm a human and I make mistakes - just let me know what I've missed and I'll fix it up.

Do you want feedback?

You'd better believe I do!! Feedback is one of the most important and valuable things you can give; feedback helps us learn, and learning is how we grow - and I want to grow! Please let me know if you have any feedback, I'd really appreciate it. You can reach me by emailing alan@inspectadaptrepeat.com
