When the values of commitment, courage, focus, openness, and respect are embodied and lived out by the Scrum Team, the Scrum pillars of transparency, inspection, and adaptation come to life and build trust for all. Scrum Team members learn and explore those values as they work with Scrum events, roles, and artifacts.
Introduction to the scrum framework: roles, activities and artifacts.

When I needed to do presentations of Scrum to executives and students, I started to look for existing ones. Most presentations I found were very good for detailed presentations or training. But what I was looking for was a presentation I could give in less than 15 minutes (or more if I wanted). Most of them also contained out dated content. For example, the latest changes in the Scrum framework were not present and what has been removed was still there.

An overview of the Agile Manifesto and why Agile SDLC is super important to excellent project management practices. Agile Software development is dominating the game these days. Whether you're going responsive, managing ecommerce, magento, or iphone apps Agile practices will help your efforts succeed.
In this presentation, we summarize the most important content of the Scrum Guide.
The material can be used to share knowledge and have a common understanding among Scrum Team Members.
It is also a great summary for those preparing for the Professional Scrum Master I (PSM I) test
Session Abstract:
Agile framework is based on iterative development, where requirements and solutions evolve through collaboration between self-organizing cross-functional teams. It’s a set of values and principles that help teams respond to unpredictability through incremental, iterative work cadences and continuous feedback.
Scrum is the most popular methodology under the Agile umbrella. Scrum emphasizes empirical feedback, team self-management, and striving to build shippable product increments within short iterations.
Kanban is another popular flavor of Agile that focuses on visualizing and managing the flow of work, in order to balance demand with available capacity and remove bottlenecks.
Learning Objectives:
> Gain a broad understanding of the Agile framework
> Discover Scrum and Kanban, the two most widely used Agile methodologies, and see how they can be used in construction industry
> Find out how Scrum and Kanban can be combined to have the best of both worlds (Scrumban)
Scrum Masters are core to creating an environment to help teams be as effective as possible. They are responsible for ensuring the team lives up to the Agile values and principles. The team is their primary focus.
What should a Scrum Master do when an individual on the team is struggling and the focus on the team is not an effective response?
Mentoring leverages skills that Scrum Masters practice every day but it is different in some key dimensions. This deck supports a conversation between Laura Richardson as she talked with Syndey Kimball, CSM about her mindset shift from Scrum Master to Mentor. The conversation was enriched by Monica Cassman, the mentee who worked directly with Sydney as they took the journey together.
The webinar covered:
1) Review the characteristics of the Certified ScrumMaster role
2) Explore the role of Mentor
3) Learn from Monica about how she benefited from the Mentor/Mentee relationship
4) Discuss steps that Scrum Masters can take to add Mentor skills and tools to their own toolkit
We ran a lunchtime session talking about values and how they underpin the way we work.
The session closed out with a whiteboard exercise which is described on the last page of this deck.
If you use this I'd appreciate your sharing your experiences and feedback via the comments or by email.
Thanks!

Maximising teamwork in delivering software products Ryan Dawson
Maximising teamwork has a big impact on effectiveness but it isn’t easy. It requires everyone to challenge themselves, come out of their silos, build trust and be disciplined about improvement. Some challenges are different for different roles. We’ll see routes to improvement for the team by looking at each role through the lens of its main biases and how to correct for them.
Software development is an innovation process. Because of that, people who work on creating software need to be provided with a certain environment to be able to be productive and effective. According to Daniel Pink who is a modern writer on business & management, innovative teams must be provided three things, purpose, autonomy, and mastery.
Our purpose is to increase people's intrinsic motivation by giving them purpose and make them autonomous and help them master what they are doing.
In this interactive workshop, Mohamed is going to tackle 3 main topics to shape a team identify
1. Why do we exist? Our purpose is...
2. What do we hold dear? Our values and principles are...

Dublin North Agile - 4th September 2018 - "Blending Agile Approaches" - Paddy...Paddy Corry
Agile approached are about dealing with complex environments, one small step at a time. Agile coaches and scrum masters need to be open to learning themselves if they are to influence the 'mushy stuff' of culture and values in teams and organisations. By internalising an approach to learning, openness, experimentation, scrum masters and agile coaches can help create the kind of organisational communities that we want to work in ourselves.
In the Agile community we talk a lot about the ""self-organized"" or ""self-managed"" teams - the ones, that control and manage their work themselves. But many organisations have already gone beyond that and let people not only choose HOW to work, but also WHICH problems to address or WHOM to work with. As suggested by Richard Hackman, we can call these teams "Self-Designing".
In my talk, I would like to share key findings and lessons learned I have observed while conducting self-design events and providing further support to self-designed organisational structures over the last four years. You will learn how having the freedom to choose whom to work with and what goal to pursue affects motivation, commitment, focus, quality and outcomes of the Product delivery and its contributors.
I believe that by possessing this information and a ready-to-apply facilitation design I will share, you will be able to make Self-Design happen at your own company to benefit both the people and the business.
An Agile mindset believes that diverse teams with complementary skills are best equipped to thrive in today’s business environments.
Many organizations, working with Agile methodologies, talk about changing mindsets. I know from extensive experience that Agile principles and practices by themselves will not lead to this kind of transformation. A real Agile transformation is about not just doing Agile, but being Agile.
‘Follow Agile’ mindset will only help us get into the water but ‘Being Agile’ mindset will help us swim in the current. Most Agile implementations fail and their practitioners cannot tell why. Managers jump onto the Agile bandwagon, and quickly discover that the change runs much deeper and wider than they’d been told. Worse yet, people decide for or against Agile without understanding it properly. It does not have to be this way. This will be an interactive workshop leading toward the Agility.

The case study discusses the potential of drone delivery and the challenges that need to be addressed before it becomes widespread.
Key takeaways:
Drone delivery is in its early stages: Amazon's trial in the UK demonstrates the potential for faster deliveries, but it's still limited by regulations and technology.
Regulations are a major hurdle: Safety concerns around drone collisions with airplanes and people have led to restrictions on flight height and location.
Other challenges exist: Who will use drone delivery the most? Is it cost-effective compared to traditional delivery trucks?
Discussion questions:
Managerial challenges: Integrating drones requires planning for new infrastructure, training staff, and navigating regulations. There are also marketing and recruitment considerations specific to this technology.
External forces vary by country: Regulations, consumer acceptance, and infrastructure all differ between countries.
Demographics matter: Younger generations might be more receptive to drone delivery, while older populations might have concerns.
Stakeholders for Amazon: Customers, regulators, aviation authorities, and competitors are all stakeholders. Regulators likely hold the greatest influence as they determine the feasibility of drone delivery.
