Description

Are you tired of struggling to meet your sprint goals?

Learn how to plan and execute the perfect sprints in Scrum and achieve the results you want.

What are sprints?

A sprint is a short, time-boxed period when a scrum team works to complete a set amount of work. Sprints are at the very heart of scrum and agile methodologies, and getting sprints right will help your agile team ship better software with fewer headaches.

Sprints are so well known (and so effective!) that they’re often seen as the first step on the path toward greater agility. As we’ve learned, mastering sprints require a mastery of a handful of scrum and agile concepts that build upon each other.

How to plan and execute scrum sprints?

In order to plan your upcoming sprint, you use the sprint planning meeting! Sprint planning is a collaborative event where the team answers two basic questions: What work can get done in this sprint and how will the chosen work get done?

And then I will show you other important things for running effective Scrum Sprints...

Welcome to Plan and Execute the Perfect Sprints in Agile and Scrum Course. Upon completion, you will be able to:

  1. Create effective Product and Sprint plans,

  2. Map user requirements to developer tasks,

  3. Apply velocity-driven planning techniques,

  4. Generate work estimates for software products and much more, all from real life and my personal experience...

By the end of the course, you will have gained an effective set of techniques to help you plan your next product development and create a great software product that is managed right.

In this course, you will see how I deal with planning in Scrum. There are many other methods and they all perform well with Scrum as well as with other frameworks, methodologies, or in real life.

You will also have 3 individual assignments to do with detailed instructions on how to do them and guidelines on how to do self-assessment. I'm asking you to do these assignments and believe me, you will collect huge rewards for doing this for yourself.

In this course, we will break down some specific problems and issues for Scrum at Work. I will also provide you with Tips Best Practices and advice on how to handle the planning in Agile and Scrum, whether you are a Scrum Master Product Owner, or developer.

This course is good and meets my expectation. The assignments were good to firm up the understanding.

"Transcript" is misleading in many places since the words are incorrect. So taking a pause to understand by reading transcript is not helping, instead confuses us, requiring to go-back on video instead and listen that part again.

Thank you! It's been practical and useful. I've done it to expand the knowledge that I can apply at work. I haven't done the exact assignments because those types of tasks is what I already perform at work, so they've been more of a "check list" whether I'm performing well or not. It helped me to complete my knowledge, thank you!
