Abstract:A few episodes ago, Jordan Gross and Ziryan Salayi joined us to talk about the self-management recipe. In my own experience, it can be incredibly hard to start doing self-management right. What makes it so hard is that the discussion about what we can expect from self-managing teams and what the common understanding is, is being skipped.

Abstract:Last year, the Scrum Guide got updated. One of those updates has been the addition of the Product Goal. How do Product Goals relate to the Product Vision or the Sprint Goals. And how can we still distinguish this in our teams with all the different terminology without causing widespread confusion? Product development legend Roman Pichler is here to share his vision on this.What you’ll discover in this show:-        Product Goals are goals on the mid-term, six months out from now-        Product Vision and Goals need to be supported by the environment of the team, it’s not just the goal of the Product Owner-        Cascading goals makes it easier and more tangible for teams to create value  Speakers:Roman PichlerProduct management expertROMAN PICHLER is a product management expert specialized in digital products. He has played a leading role over the last 10 years in advancing product management and developing new practices that help agile organizations and teams create great products. Roman shares his knowledge through his training courses and consulting services, his three books on product management, his popular blog, podcast, and talks, and his product management tools, including his widely used product vision board.​As the founder and director of Pichler Consulting, Roman looks after the company’s offerings.

The Scrum framework thrives in complex environments, where more is unknown than that is known. That requires decentralized decision-making and self-managing teams.

Abstract:Scrum is lightweight framework; easy to understand, hard to master. It provides four formal events and one container event. It’s not prescriptive. But still, it’s pretty hard to use in practice. Just going through the motion is not going to help teams and organizations to reap the benefits Scrum can provide. Johannes Schartau and Christiaan Verwijs from The Liberators are here to talk to us about what they call “Zombie Scrum” is how you can cure it. What you’ll discover in this show:-          Scrum Zombies can appear in every organization-          The Zombie plague can be cured!-          Zombie Scrum is not just a team problem Speakers:Johannes SchartauOrganizational ConsultantI am an Agile Coach, international speaker, complexity and integral thinker, Liberating Structures user, and Zombie Scrum fighter. I am also the co-author of the "Zombie Scrum Survival Guide" together with Christiaan Verwijs and Barry Overeem. Out now as part of the Professional Scrum Series at Addison-Wesley.   Contact Johannes Schartau: https://twitter.com/IntegralAgile https://www.linkedin.com/in/johannes-schartau/ https://www.theliberators.com Christiaan VerwijsCo-Founder of The LiberatorsI enjoy igniting positive change in teams and organizations. It is my strong belief that people should be empowered to drive change themselves, rather than being told by management or consultants how to change. My mission is to liberate the world from dehumanizing and demotivating workplaces by helping organizations find better ways to tap into the creativity, intelligence, and wisdom of people. I feel that this is the best way forward in this world of complex work. Based on my personal experience and my background in software engineering and organizational psychology, I have found both the Scrum Framework and Liberating Structures to be powerful ingredients here.  On a more personal note, I live in Utrecht together with Lisanne and our crazy cat Fender. I enjoy painting, reading, and gaming. I also enjoy a good beer paired with a good burger.   Contact Christiaan Verwijs: https://theliberators.com https://survey.zombiescrum.org Sander Dur (host)Scrum Master, Agile Coach, trainer, and podcast host for ‘Mastering Agility”Sander Dur is business agility enthusiast, with a passion for people.

Abstract:Nothing quite captures emotions and the perception of value as just having a simple conversation. JIRA tickets full of details still cannot display what a face-to-face conversation can. But challenging times, like now with the pandemic going on, require a different approach.

Ever since the industrial revolution we've been getting more distanced from the value of people in the workspace. People are being called resourced and treated as such. A computer mouse is a resource. An office chair is a resource. People are people.

Sprint Goals provide the single objective, the single focus, for the Sprint when we're talking about what's the most important thing to do. Often it's a misunderstood or hard thing to create. Why do we need one? Can we really create only 1, we're working on so many things?! Maarten Dalmijn is here to talk to us about why Sprint Goals are so important and how to deal with these questions. There is so much to say about it that he's even writing a book on this specific topic!Support the showContact us at:Masteringagility.orghttps://xebia.com/academy/nl/trainers/sander-durhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/jamessammons/https://www.linkedin.com/in/sanderdur/Hosted by Ausha.
