Description

Scrum is one of the leading agile software development processes. Over 12,000 project managers have become certified to run Scrum projects . Since its origin on Japanese new product development projects in the 1980s, Scrum has become recognized as one of the best project management frameworks for handling rapidly changing or evolving projects. Especially useful on projects with lots of technology or requirements uncertainty, Scrum is a proven, scalable agile process for managing software projects. The Scrum lecture is designed to increase the overall understanding of Agile practices across an entire organization, and helps to link the business owners to the technical teams delivering software that improve business performance. The modules are helpful for everyone, from the top level management to developers, testers and IT operations, and marketing, sales, human resources and other stakeholders within the software-driven enterprise. This broad level of knowledge and understanding is critical to the successful adoption of Agile-based methods that impact virtually all aspects of daily business operations. This session will be equally suited for managers, programmers, testers, product managers and anyone else interested in improving product delivery.
