Improve Scrum Team Problem-Solving and Alignment with Facilitation Skills | Agile Socks
June 17 @ 11:00 am – 3:00 pm
A key tenet of Scrum is to put problem-solving and decision-making in the hands of the Scrum Team. However, team interactions don’t always go well.
Do any of these challenges sound familiar:
- Teams struggle to reach consensus, resulting in scattered focus and lack of team alignment
- Some team members don’t contribute their insights while dominant voices control discussions, reducing the diversity of ideas and problem-solving
- Teams fail to dig deep into root causes of problems, leading to surface-level improvements rather than meaningful changes that would drive continuous improvement
- Scrum events are boring or unproductive, leaving team members disengaged and feeling like they are a waste of time
- Unaddressed conflict creates tension that affects team dynamics and productivity
Strong facilitation skills enable better problem-solving, more effective Scrum events and greater team collaboration, all leading to better outcomes.
I am hosting a public live virtual Scrum Facilitation Skills Training on June 17-18 (half days).
This interactive and practical training will help you:
- Learn the facilitation principles that experienced facilitators fall back on when interactions are difficult.
- Apply facilitation skills and techniques to improve the Scrum events and other interactions.
- Explore how facilitation can address challenging scenarios most Scrum Teams encounter.
- Understand how to encourage diverse perspectives, while bringing the team together to reach decisions.
- Leave class with a toolbox of facilitation techniques and understand how to apply them in different circumstances.
