Scrum Product Owner Certification

I had the opportunity to attend the Scrum Product Owner certification workshop put on by Pete Deemer of Good Agile this week in San Jose CA.

Pete was a great trainer and provided a plethora of real-world examples which prompted a lot of valuable discussion. Although at times a bit chaotic, we simulated using Scrum in an end-to-end project using balloons, string, paper-clips and tape which provided a great experiential learning environment and made the subject matter “sticky”. The class participants were another highlight, 10 people with varying degrees of development knowledge and business background that came prepared to challenge, learn and share. It was by far one of the best professional workshops I’ve attended.

5 Take-Away’s:

1. Scrum is not a silver bullet
2. Scrum is highly adaptable
3. Scrum aint easy it’s an art
4. Scrum uncovers problems earlier
5. Scrum is fast, fun and the future of software development
