SCRUM is an unstoppable trend in agile project management that is being used more and more in internal as well as external projects. Do you seek to dive into the SCRUM world and get certified as a globally recognized Professional SCRUM Master™ I (PSM I)? Then this preparation program is exactly what you need! The ability to use SCRUM in your daily work requires a deep understanding of the method, its mechanisms and the required roles. In this 2-day SCRUM program, you will be introduced to the basics of the SCRUM method. You will learn where and how to use SCRUM, which tasks and functions you have to fulfill as a SCRUM Master in a SCRUM team, how to scale this method for your environment and also how to combine SCRUM with other methods such as PRINCE2, PMP®. The role of the Product Owner is also covered in sufficient depth to aim for a subsequent PSPO I exam.

Do you know that about yourself? You are part of a change process that is necessary and already well planned – and yet the implementation does not work, and some team members are already in resistance. You are not alone, this is the case in 70% of all change processes! Whether it is the implementation of the New Year’s resolutions or the digitalization – change always means behavioral change and the “human factor” is not always sufficiently considered in its unpredictability. During this program, you will receive a practical toolbox to steer change processes in a pragmatic way. You will shed light on your own role in change processes and the appropriate inner attitude. Working with the toolbox and on your own attitude follows basic principles of agile work. In this way, you additionally gain a general understanding of agile methods and reflect on their areas of application outside of change management. Already during the program, in small groups you will start to develop concrete change measures for real change challenges in your team or project, working in an agile way. You will define the “why” of your own change challenge more clearly and understand how you can shape the change in a positive way.
