This is still an idea not a thing, but what I think I want to do is bring all of the stuff we've learned about effective teamwork and product development in commercial software to industry sectors that are doing beneficial work and can't pay thousands of dollars for training or coaching. I'm still trying to decide if this is a dumb idea, so feedback is welcome. :)
