What is Scrum?

The Scrum Framework is one of the most commonly used Agile approaches for managing projects effectively. Companies use this approach to do twice the work in half the time, which is the tagline by Jeff Sutherland, one of the creators of Scrum. Who doesn’t want those kind of results?

The video below from the Scrum Alliance walks through the Scrum Framework with a brief overview (1 min 20 seconds).

We lead Agile training across the globe. Our Founder and CEO, Maria Matarelli, is a Certified Scrum Trainer (CST) who travels the world teaching companies of all types how to apply this simple framework to work more effectively.

We work with many companies to lead onsite training as well as onsite coaching.

Leadership Keynote at Agile Tour Bangkok 2017

Our CEO, Maria Matarelli, is giving the closing keynote at the Agile Tour Bangkok 2017 Conference. The conference theme is Business Agility – The Journey of The Genuine Digital Transformation.

Maria is presenting on “Ineffective Leadership” where she talks about 3 keys to ineffective leadership and how these techniques will be sure to bring out poor performance from those around you. In this juxtaposed presentation, Maria talks about what not to do and why it is so important to be an inspirational leader rather than an ineffective leader. Maria closes by talking about how to begin incorporating Personal Agility to be a great leader.

It is exciting to see the interest in the Certified Agile Leadership (CAL1) class! We are SOLD OUT!

It is so much more than a leadership class or a certification… Michael Sahota really brings incredible models and patterns that not only address up to 90% of the challenges that we see teams and businesses facing every day, but it is a learning journey of personal growth.

For true organizational transformation, if you’re an agilest, coach, trainer, or leader in any capacity, this is so much more than your typical training class… in 2-days, it will open your mindset to consider new possibilities that will truly transform the way you look at yourself, your own actions, your approach to leadership, and will show you how to inspire real change in organizations.
