Our own wonderful Arthur Richards gave a talk at the Global Scrum Gathering in Phoenix (back in May). Links to that at the bottom.
I wanted to call this out especially in the context of a blog post that John O'Duinn, who gave the We Are All Remoties talk for us back in April, just posted today about Arthur's talk: http://oduinn.com/blog/2015/06/11/the-canary-in-the-coal-mine/ "We both strongly agree that having people in different locations is just a way to uncover the internal communication problems you didn’t know you already have… the remote person is the canary in the coal mine. Having a “we are all remoties” mindset helps everyone become more organized in their communications, which helps remote people *and* also the people sitting near each other in the office." I think that's spot on. Food for thought and also recognition that we work with awesome people.
