*
Our advisors help make Scrum stick by fully explaining the “why”
behind Scrum (we don't just throw charts and graphs at you).
*
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.”

-------------------------
WHO SHOULD ATTEND?
The Professional Scrum Master II course is an advanced course
specifically designed for experienced Scrum Masters who have a
thorough understanding of the Scrum framework. It is
particularly beneficial for those people with at least one year of
Scrum Master experience.
OVERVIEW
Over the 2 days, students will learn about areas critical to growing
as a successful Scrum Master such as how the principles and values of
Scrum help guide Scrum Masters in the decisions they make and how the
Scrum Master can help change the environment of Scrum Teams, creating
an environment for agility to thrive. The Scrum Master role is complex
and often, a Scrum Master must be able to apply different stances in
order to be effective, such as:
* The Scrum Master as a Teacher
* The Scrum Master as a Coach & Mentor
* The Scrum Master as a Facilitator
* The Scrum Master as a Change Agent
As a Scrum Master, being able to identify, and effectively apply,
which stance would benefit your team the most depending on the
situation or circumstance could prove to be the key to the success of
your team.
As a Scrum Master, part of your role is to help management and other
stakeholders across your organization understand the benefits of Scrum
and Agile. Therefore, it is imperative that you have the information
and background that is needed to gain credibility in order to be an
effective change agent. Throughout the class, your PST will provide
stories, exercises, facilitation techniques (such as “Liberating
Structures”), resources and more.
There will also be time in class for the Professional Scrum Trainer
(PST) to provide coaching on challenges that you and your classmates
may be experiencing today or may in the future.
