Sunday morning I took off to do a little hiking at Little Mulberry Park. On my way I stopped at Starbucks for my morning coffee.
Lady: Good morning, welcome to Starbucks, what can I get for you today
Me: Good morning, I'll have a Venti Pike's Place with extra creme
Lady: Great, would you like anything else with that, a blueberry scone maybe?
Me: That sounds delicious but I think I am going to pass.
Lady: Okay then, your total is $2.24 you can pull around to pick up your order.
Me: Thanks very much!
This conversation was almost idenitical to every other conversation I have had in a Starbucks drive through. It was like we were reading a script... she knew what she was going to say... I knew what I was going to say.
It was predictable but created the opportunity for both of us to learn something new. For some reason yesterday... I found our little dance oddly reassuring.
Need training, coaching, or help leading an agile transformation?
