About the conference

Aginext is for advanced agilists. That means we need to listen to feedback and be eager to adapt to change. The COVID-19 pandemic makes our conference untenable in its existing co-located form. After careful consideration and collaboration with our team, our brilliant speakers, and our venue, we are moving the 2020 Aginext Conference Online.

    I have experienced some measure of Alexithymia and have needed to find those building blocks or some orientation and vocabulary in order to understand, manage, and appreciate my own emotions. There was a time that I would have glanced at this type of training and brushed it off as fluff and a waste of time, but now I recognize these types of principles as crucial to our own happiness and lives, especially in the times and social environment in which we live. Having a close friend or companion can help with that developing emotional intelligence, provided they are in a position to be of real help.

    There is more that could be delved into here, especially concerning beliefs and channeling emotion, for instance. But given the time constraints and the setting I thought it very relevant, helpful, and well done.
