How many times have you heard the Development team recite the 3 questions every morning and still fail to finish the sprint? Daily Scrum is an avenue for the team to synchronise and not give a status update. And when a team understands the value of the Daily Scrum, it can help drive the sprint’s success. During this session, we will introduce participants to some tools to achieve this.
