Hands-on Agile #30: Fixing Your Scrum
Fixing Your Scrum delves into forensic analysis: “Forensic analysis refers to a detailed investigation for detecting and documenting the course, reasons, culprits, and consequences of a security incident or violation of rules of the organization or state laws.” (Source: What is Forensic Analysis?)
Even if you chose to use Scrum for the right purpose—solving complex adaptive problems and your product quality is high, and the team is self-managing entirely. If your Product Backlog is not actionable, your Scrum Team will be performing at a mediocre level at best—way below its potential.
Why an actionable Product Backlog is essential for your Scrum Team’s success,
How to spot and remedy issues that prevent your Product Backlog from becoming actionable,
How you can defend your Product Backlog from falling back into the “old ways.”
In the process, we will use Liberating Structures for diving into the top-ten Product Backlog anti-patterns and suggesting how to fix them.
The Fineprint of Fixing Your Scrum
Please learn about more the organization of the Fixing Your Scrum meetup on March 9, 2021:
You need to RSVP on Meetup.com to receive an invitation. (I will not post a Zoom on a public webpage.)
I communicate with people who RSVP’ed via Meetup.com’s internal messaging system. Ignore emails from Meetup at your peril. (Pro tip: check your email and notification settings with Meetup.com.)
I kindly ask for your understanding that RSVPs will no longer be available after March 8, 2021, for organizational reasons without exception.
Newly available seats after closing RSVPs — some people will cancel — will be allocated via the waiting list. (There will be no extrawurst for anyone.)
"Switching to an Agile mindset was a game-changer for our product delivery. The interactive training sessions didn't just teach us the theory; they gave our teams practical tools to start delivering value from day one."
