SUMMARY:2 day CSM workshop with Alexander (Sasha) Frumkin and Bernie Maloney
DESCRIPTION:ScrumMasters – a heartbeat of effective Teams\nEffective Scrum isn’t just applying theory or process – it’s about creating space for a Team to collaborate and deliver value\, effectively. Not just in person\, but even when the interactions are virtual and online. \nIf you’re ready to learn Scrum in a fun and engaging way via pragmatic techniques you can apply immediately\, this course is for you. From deep study of brain science and adult learning\, we’ve learned what it takes to be effective in a virtual environment and avoid “Zoom fatigue.” \nGet Hands-On Experience with Scrum\nThe workshop includes all the material required by the Scrum Alliance for its Certified ScrumMaster CSM® certification\, along with stories\, tips\, tricks and practices to take the theory of Scrum and put it into effective action in your organization. \nThis course is not a Powerpoint snooze-fest. Short presentations cover concepts. Immersive team-based exercises are interwoven into each lesson to get you hands-on practice. You’ll find the engaging and impactful sessions turn complex topics into easy to understand concepts and techniques\, leaving participants eager for more. \n\n\n\n\nWorkshop Hours:\n8h Sessions (includes lunch break):\n\n27 Jul: 9:30a – 6:30p ET / 6:30a – 3:30p PT\n28 Jul: 9:30a – 6:30p ET / 6:30a – 3:30p PT\n\nWant to see different timezones?\nUse this link to open a timezone converter in a new browser tab. \nSchedule doesn’t fit? See this link for other dates / times\n\n\n\n\nBeyond the basics\, we also explore Scrum in action – facilitating team interactions\, working with the team’s Backlog of work\, and getting work “Done” (or perhaps it’s Done-Done)! \nGet a taste of the engaging instruction style you’ll experience with this short video: \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBy the conclusion of this dynamic workshop – you will be prepared with the skills\, knowledge\, and experience to not only explain Scrum to colleagues\, clients or interviewers\, but also to put Scrum into action with your team. Become a catalyst for change by helping your teams and programs apply these concepts to become resilient\, learning organizations able to thrive in today’s emerging markets. \nHere’s what students say about these online workshops:\nGreat class led by Alexander Frumkin. His style is approachable and thorough\, while he gets people participating\, which is contagious. I learned a lot and passed the test the first time. — M.R. Hogan \nInteractive course which kept us engaging throughout the sessions. Real life time examples from Sasha’s experience were really mind opening and also was helpful in tackling challenging situations at work. Was able to pass the exam so easily as the course content was great and the delivery by Sasha was exceptional. — Pradhiksha Gunasekaran \nThe experience was hands on and filled with collaboration through enough break out session and the instrutor Sasha was also easy to understand in conveying the agile way. — Adegoke Ogunleye \nSasha was an excellent coach. He showed me how Scrum worked and could be used outside of the normal software development environment. — Michael Harfert \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMeet Your Instructors:\nPrimary Instructor: Sasha (Alexander) Frumkin\nSasha (Alexander) Frumkin calls himself a recovering developer and a Scrumoholic. Having started programming in Algol-60 in high school\, he still codes for fun. Through his technical career\, he can remember the pain of working long hours and weekends on “waterfall” projects with arbitrary plans imposed on the team. Luckily\, he learned about the Agile Manifesto and Scrum in 2007 and hasn’t looked back. \nSasha learned Scrum by doing it. He’s orchestrated implementations of Scrum across multiple organizations\, from handfuls to hundreds of teams\, helping deliver innovative products in record time. He believes that Agility is the path to handling the complexity of our rapidly emerging world. Further\, he believes the human-centricity of Scrum helps bring happiness to the workplace\, and happy people are productive people. Eager to help more people find a better way of solving complex problems\, he’s ready to share his experience and passion for Scrum with you. ARE YOU READY? \nSupervising Instructor: Bernie Maloney\nBernie Maloney is an international trainer\, coach and speaker who’s helped grow businesses from breakeven to beyond $100 million. The teams he’s worked with have delivered products ranging from award winning consumer electronics to network infrastructure to services & payments. He’s worked with firms including Bell Labs\, HP\, TiVo\, Cisco\, Wells Fargo and more. In addition to his client work\, he teaches Agile Product Development and Agile Leadership at Stanford Continuing Studies. \nAs an Agile Leadership Coach\, Bernie helps clients achieve performance breakthroughs with their teams\, their organizations and themselves. More\, he believes that Accelerating Genius℠ is possible in every person and business\, and leads both to outrageous effectiveness\, and a whole lot more fun. \n\n\n\n\nGet your CSM® and More!\nThis workshop includes: \n\nScrum Alliance Certified ScrumMaster CSM® Exam fee\nTwo-year membership in the Scrum Alliance\, the largest\, most established and influential professional membership and certification organization in the Agile community\n14 PMI PDUs for PMPs\n14 of the 21 contact hours needed for a PMI-ACP credential\n\nWho Should Attend\nThis course is appropriate for Scrum Masters\, as well as Product Owners\, Scrum Team Members and Managers interested in understanding and applying the fundamentals of how Scrum and Agile work at the team level. It’s equally valuable for folks new to the world of Agile/Scrum\, as well as people whose organizations have been practicing some form of Agile for a while and need a “reset.” \n\n\n\n\nThe Fine Print\nFAQ\n\nHow soon can I get my CSM® certification? On completing your participation in the full workshop\, a link will be emailed to you from the Scrum Alliance to access their online certification exam. We often see workshop participants complete their certification exam and become Certified Scrum Masters within 24 hours of completing the workshop.\nCan I Miss Several Hours of the Workshop and Still be Certified? No. Scrum Alliance does have an attendance requirement. Because Scrum Alliance requires 14 hours of instruction\, if you miss more than 15 minutes of the workshop\, you will not be eligible for certification\, yet you will be welcome to attend the rest of the workshop. Don’t worry\, if something big comes up\, we’ll move you at no charge to a future workshop.\nCan I Make Up Missed Material by Attending Part of Another Workshop? No. Amongst other factors\, each class moves through the material at different paces. This means it’s unreliable to predict a clear window where a set of previously missed LOs will be covered. There are further complicating factors in partial attendance. For the smoothest experience for all\, you’re welcome to make up missed material by attending a future workshop in full at no charge.\nWhat do I need to bring to class? You’ll need a computer with microphone\, camera and speakers. Use https://fast.com to test your internet connection. After the download numbers stop\, use the “more” option to calculate your upload speed. You’ll need 5 down / 1 up – and more is better. Now\, while you’re in class you’ll be actively using your computer to participate in exercises\, so plan to peek at your email only during a break or at lunch.\n\n\n\n\n\nCancellation Policy\nWe understand that things can change\, and we strive to be as agile as possible with respect to registrations. Please email us no later than 5 business days before the start of the workshop and we’ll arrange a refund or transfer to a future date. Cancellations received within 5 full business days of the start of the course will receive a credit (no cash value) towards a future workshop. Please request changes by emailing hello@poweredbyteams.com. \n\nQuestions?\nDrop us an email at: hello@poweredbyteams.com

SUMMARY:Agile Coach's Guide to Constructive Collaboration with Leadership
DESCRIPTION:In the agile world\, we tend to complain a great deal about leadership. Get a group of agile coaches together and you’ll likely hear things like\, “If only our leaders weren’t so focused on output and metrics\,” or “If only leadership understood about self-empowered teams\,” or even “If only leadership would let us do things the right way.” \nWe seem to be saying that leadership is the problem. Yet the stark reality is that they are not the source of all problems in an organization. Everyone in an organization needs to find better ways of working. However\, leadership does play a crucial part in our ability to bring positive change and increased agility to an organization. Complaining about what leadership does will not help us bring about that change. Conversely\, finding the best way to work with organizational leadership will give us the highest chance for success in creating enduring and positive organizational change. In other words\, if you can’t communicate effectively with organizational leadership\, you will drastically limit the scope of your impact as an agile coach. \nIn this session\, we’ll dive into the best ways to partner with leadership to bring about organizational change. Learn what leadership is concerned about and how to speak in a manner that captures the attention of leadership. We will discuss both positive patterns working with leadership to effect change and anti-patterns to avoid. We’ll also give you some prompts you can use to practice with ChatGPT or your favorite generative AI platform back home. Then we’ll conclude with pointers on how to leverage your new found credibility with leadership to cultivate a higher level of collaboration\, adaptability\, and transparency across the organization.

SUMMARY:Risk Management in the Agile world
DESCRIPTION:Many teams and organizations wonder whether they need to do Risk Management for agile projects\, and how. The misconception that an agile project does not require planning\, leads naturally to the conclusion that an agile project does not require risk management. The fact is that every project needs some planning and has risks. That includes agile projects. In this presentation\, we will review some guidelines and techniques for managing risk in Scrum projects. We will see how the Scrum framework is designed with risk “built-in”. We will also cover some techniques that help the team to proactively manage risk.

SUMMARY:Do not look for a black cat in a dark room with no cat (Cynefin sense making model)
DESCRIPTION:How often do you see a large group of people\, many with exceedingly high pay checks\, spending hours and hours in meetings looking for a “perfect” solution for a complex business problem? How often did these plans survive the reality tests? It always was bugging me to see how teams\, especially leadership teams\, spend enormous amount of time developing what they believe is a “perfect plan” and having hard time adjusting it in the future. I was looking for a tool that would help to promote Empirical approach\, a culture of experimentation. And I found the answer in Cynefin (/kəˈnɛvɪn/ kuh-NEV-in) sense making framework by David Snowden. Join me to explore Cynefin framework and see what happens if you apply “best practices” for solving complex problems..

SUMMARY:Как научиться эффективно работать с трудными командами?
DESCRIPTION:Каждый из нас сталкивался в своей профессиональной практике с трудными командами – в роли менеджера\, коуча или члена команды. В любом из этих вариантов\, перед нами стоит непростая задача: изменить ситуацию и добиться\, чтобы команда стала успешной\, а члены этой команды приобрели мотивацию и необходимые навыки. Казалось бы\, все просто: поставить задачу\, обучить\, похвалить\, научить работать вместе. На самом деле\, все гораздо сложнее. Требуются знания\, психологическая подготовка\, эмоциональная закалка\, терпение и изобретательность. \nНа этой сессии мы рассмотрим семь причин\, которые приводят к возникновению трудных команд\, и семь приемов\, которые вы сможете применить\, в зависимости от вашей роли руководителя\, коуча или члена команды\, чтобы сделать эти команды успешными. Мы рассмотрим приципы скрама\, масштабированных agile подходов\, углубимся в основы психологии и профессионального коучинга. \nНе удивляйтесь: семейная терапия применима к скрам-командам\, а планирование спринта сопоставимо с планированием деятельности любой команды – в спорте\, семье или в группе близких друзей. Вы приобретете навыки\, которые помогут вам преодолеть удручающий опыт работы с трудными командами и позиционируют вас как признанного лидера в новой\, преображенной\, организации. \nО нашем докладчике:\nМария Брейтер родилась в Москве\, окончила отделение структурной и прикладной лингвистики МГУ и после окончания аспирантуры была приглашена в роли научного сотрудника в Стэнфордский университет. После Стэнфорда Мария уже 20 лет руководит командами\, занимающимися разработкой программного обеспечения как менеджер\, руководитель техническими проектами\, скрам мастер и agile коуч.

SUMMARY:The Job Hackers Agile Meetup
DESCRIPTION:Title:\nPsychological Safety Makes Teams Effective \nSummary:\nWhat was your best team ever? How can you describe your dream team?\nIn 2012\, Google embarked on an initiative — code-named Project Aristotle — to study hundreds of company’s teams and figure out why some stumbled while others soared. After observing 180 teams across the company\, and analyzing more than 250 attributes\, the group of researchers identified psychological safety as a condition for an effective team. This presentation identifies what psychological safety is\, the neurological science behind it\, and its effects on people and teams. It discusses the difference between a group and a Team (with capital “T”). Together we’ll utilize the Integral Model to see how lack of psychological safety affects all aspects of life in an organization.

SUMMARY:Information radiators in a Distributed Agile environment
DESCRIPTION:Agile encourages a self organizing and empowered method of working. This includes self servicing which is enabled by information radiators. During our days of colocation\, it was easy to put up stickies or graphs on a wall and absorb information as we walked down the hallway. In the current days of distributed agile implementation\, it is easy for important information to hide. We have to be proactive about generating JIRA reports and using other ways to stay informed. \nHow can we create visual radiators in a distributed agile environment? \nJoin us to explore the solutions that will enable your team to work as effective or even more effective than they did when they were colocated. This will include techniques for creating digital artifacts and creating self service information radiating solutions. \nSpeaker:\nErnesto Custodio has over 25 years of experience working in the IT field. His experience includes Product Management\, Software Development Management\, Business Development Management\, Project Management\, Agile Coach\, and Agile Trainer working with startups and Fortune 500 Companies. As a Certified Scrum@Scale trainer\, Certified Scrum Inc. Trainer\, (SAFe) Program Consultant (SPC)\, CS@SP\, CSP-SM\, CSP-PO\, CSM\, CSPO\, and PMP\, he promotes Agile practices to build innovative solutions. His expertise includes large-scale Agile transformations and managing geographically dispersed teams. Ernesto holds an MBA and is a current Information Systems Ph. D. candidate focused on distributed Agile team collaboration.

SUMMARY:Coding Dojo
DESCRIPTION:What is Dojo? \nThe term means ‘place of the Way’ in Japanese. The concept has been traditionally applied in the field of martial arts and meditation\, and with the constant changes to modern technology the concept has been increasingly adopted in the field of software development. \nCoding Dojos are a powerful vehicle to accelerate the team’s transformation and lead their way to become a stronger product team. As in Dojo for martial arts\, the students are instructed by teachers to achieve a skill mastery; the similar is how a coding Dojo is set up! The teams work with Product and Technical coaches for six weeks where they are coached on Lean\, Agile\, Product Mindset and Software Engineering practices while working on their actual backlogs. Teams develop long lasting skills through repetition and deliberate practice during short\, hyper-iterations. \nThe quote from Xun Kuang best describes the essence of Immersive Learning: “Tell me and I will forget. Teach me and I will remember. Involve me and I will learn.” \nEstablishing Dojos at my firm has been my goal from past couple years where I served as a Product Coach.

SUMMARY:Cost of Delay: An Economic Approach to Decision Making
DESCRIPTION:uestion: how much does it cost you not to have something? Reinertsen has said that Cost of Delay is the most important thing to quantify when producing a product. Great\, but how do you start? How do you assign a dollar amount to something you have not built yet? How do we make sure that our teams focus on building the most important thing right now? This talk will give you the tools you need to understand Cost of Delay\, as well as a set of techniques\, from simple proxies to more sophisticated real-dollar analyses to help you understand the impact of delays on your organization. \nSpeaker:\nRoger Turnau is an Agile coach with SolutionsIQ\, an Accenture company. An IT executive for over 20 years\, his experience includes development on large-scale\, high-availability\, high-profile sites\, as well as helping clients unlock the value-creating potential of Agile enablement. He has helped large organizations through difficult digital and DevOps transformations\, and is passionate about instilling a culture of technical excellence through test automation\, continuous integration\, and continuous deployment. Roger has a particular interest in helping companies align their strategies to their team-level Agile initiatives\, to ensure their policies are enabling rather than hampering innovation and change.
