  • We have deep and broad industry experience and can uniquely apply it to real-world problems.

  • We address the sticky issues of interpersonal communication and team dynamics. We find that many Scrum problems are actually people problems.

  • We know how to communicate difficult-to-grasp agile concepts to technical and non-technical audiences alike.

WHAT TO EXPECT

WHAT THEY'RE SAYING ABOUT OUR INSTRUCTORS 

Responsive Advisors "was able to give me the holistic view of Scrum that I was missing even after working with it for years and having attended other training. I left the class excited and confident in my abilities, which is something that I can’t say that I’ve often experienced after a training class. I suppose the truest endorsement of the progress I made was finally having the confidence to take the PSM-II, which I passed with a 92%. If I wind up conquering the PSM-III, I know I’ll have Jordan to thank.” - David de Corlieu

“Thank you again for a great class last week!  I came back excited to share what I'd learned with the rest of the company - I'd argue that's not something that can't be said for most classes. Loved the small class size and open communication. Would definitely recommend to others at my organization.” 

“A good balance between theory and examples vague enough to elicit great discussion and interactions, but relevant enough to get concrete knowledge to take home.” 

“Busting some of the myths of what is and isn’t scrum was helpful. Lots of good guidance on how to maximize our use of Scrum. Good clarification on the purpose of many of the Scrum concepts.”

OVERVIEW

The PSM course is much more than just a set of slides and an instructor. In this course, students work on real-life cases with other classmates together as a team. This course is made up of discussions and hands-on exercises based upon real-life cases.

Advanced tools for servant-leadership are provided to increase a Scrum Master’s effectiveness. These tools relate to behavioral shifts, working with people and teams, coaching and facilitation techniques, and addressing the organization.

Students learn through instruction and team-based exercises and are challenged to think in terms of the Scrum principles to better understand what to do when returning to the workplace.

  • The “WHY” and rules of Scrum through the empirical foundation of Scrum 

  • The ability to effectively start up Scrum or increase its effectiveness if already underway. 

  • The ability to navigate the “grey areas” of a Scrum implementation
