APLN Houston

The APLN Houston leadership team took over a meeting room at a local library recently to reflect on the organization’s progress in 2010 and to reconfirm our priorities for the remainder of the year. Thanks to Sharvan Arra, Barbara Brown, Alan Bustamante, Jaynee Lafferty and Ron Whitebread for giving up a Saturday afternoon, to say nothing about their efforts on behalf of APLN Houston throughout the year.

Our first step was to conduct a retrospective on the year thus far. We did this in two parts, first just to reflect back and recognize what has been accomplished this year. Our membership has exceeded 600 and our meeting attendance has grown to 60+, with a high of 85. We continue to have a great relationship with Sysco and enjoy the use of their fantastic facility for our meetings. APLN Houston has incorporated, defined a business model, and created a sponsorship program to both sustain the present and the future. We established a partnership with Kumido Adaptive Strategies to jointly host our first training event, Innovation Games for Agile Teams, and we formalized our APLN Houston To Go program to extend our reach in the greater Houston area.
