Great training
Great training. Alexander did a fantastic job of guiding us through the metric jungle and giving us the basics of how to use Kanban for Scrum teams. Would attend training again anytime.

Ein Kanban Training mit vielen interessanten Insights
Dieser zweitägige online Kurs ging unter der Führung von Alexander wie im Flug vorbei. Das Training was super strukturiert und die Herangehensweise von kurzen Einführungsblöcken zu den Themen und den zahlreichen Gruppenarbeiten hat Spass gemacht, war sehr lehrreich und interaktiv gestaltet.
Insgesamt waren es zwei sehr informative Tage mit super vielen Inputs und einem guten Praxisbezug aus unterschiedlichen Branchen.
Ich empfehle den Kurs jedem, der mehr über Kanban Metriken und Charts lernen möchte. Darüber hinaus kriegt man mit Alexander einen sehr erfahrenen und entspannten Trainer der jederzeit auf die Wünsche der Teilnehmer eingeht.

Das war ein tolles Training
Das war ein tolles Training. Guter Mix aus Input und selbst erarbeiten. Dadurch vergingen die zwei Tage wie im Flug. Auch der Einsatz der Tools Zoom und Mural hat mir sehr gefallen. Das Training war super vorbereitet. Wir haben immer wieder in kleineren Gruppen Übungen gemacht. Je nach Aufgabe wurde die Zusammensetzung der kleineren Gruppen beibehalten oder geändert. Das hat dazu geführt, dass die Teilnehmer sich immer besser kennengelernt haben. Wir hatten eine tolle Stimmung und Gruppendynamik. Inhaltlich gab es eine Menge Input, immer wieder mit Praxisbezug. Gerne wieder.

The training was great
The training was great. Alex was very cool, made the team work well together (we had an awesome group of 6 people), was open for any question and was able to explain the material even though I'm not from the software development scene (I'm an HR professional).

Excellent (virtual classroom) training
Excellent (virtual classroom) training, in fact the best I had so far over a duration of 2 days. Alex is a great trainer, great facilitator and is a role model for all about Scrum. His usage of Mural also gave me lots of insights how to effectively use such technologies for your online collaboration success. I can recommend Alex as trainer and as professional in anything related to Scrum and Scrum.org.

Awesome!!!
Sehr gut vorbereitetes Online Training. Alex geht anhand der Erfahrungen und Level der Teilnehmer durch das Programm. Dadurch entsteht ein interaktives Lernen und man erarbeitet/erweitert sein Wissen über agile Methoden anstatt einem ,,Vortrag'' zu lauschen. Trotzdem, oder vielleicht auch gerade deshalb, ist man sehr gut auf die Zertifizierung vorbereitet. Danke Alex!
Tim Buchner
Interactive and Inteesting
The training was very interactive and the Trainer knows a lot about the topic and hence is able to answer all the questions. Loved it!

Time boxing as a shining example
Best time boxing ever in my live, which gives a good feeling during the training days and is also a shining example of how to ensure time boxing as a scrum master yourself. A lot of practical discussions. Trainer is open to talk about practical experiences and give hints about that. Good preparation for the certification and also for the work as a scrum master. Haven't had my personal coaching hour yet, but I am looking forward to this appointment with Alexander. Alexander also has a wider look, not only knowing scrum, but other agile methodologies as well and a lot of practical experience around software development processes.
Florian Hallay
Excellent Trainer
Training was SuperB and Trainer Alexander Hardt was always keen and happy answer any of the questions. In a dual mindset I opted the training. But now realised it worth the decision I made.
Srinivasa Prasad
Ownership of my first product
The class was very well organized, using virtual tools only. Alexander led us through the course and stimulated the group discussion so we could collaboratively took the ownership of our very first product developed in Scrum environment. The course helped me to understand the relations within the typical Scrum team and how to manage external expectations in the product owner role.
Michał
Very well managed Advanced PO training
Alex understood it very well to keep the timebox under control but also give the participants the possibility to exchange their hands-on knowledge in the role of a Product Owner in their respective environments. This is helping very much to get a better "grip" on the advance PO role.
Oliver Weiss
I can only recommend!
I can only recommend Alexander Hardt. He uses just the right amount of theory with spot on examples so everyone can quickly understand what the task/topic is with or without prior Scrum experience. We didn't even realise it, but we took on all the SM1 material in two days, so the exam was no problem with minimal preparation. I highly recommend Alexander as a trainer and look forward to future training courses with him!
Sara Varsanyi
Fascinating topic "PAL" & an excellent trainer!
Alexander Hardt made this course so interesting again virtually (because of Corona) that there was no boredom during the training days. Everyone in our course understood the content right away in such a way that we passed the exam without much learning curve (assuming SM1 & PO1). I can only recommend the subject of PAL and Alexander as a trainer and I look forward to future training courses with him!
D. Blumenau
Excellent PSPO-A class with valuable content and exciting interaction
The PSPO-A training was packed with valuable insights to benefit from supporting my Product Owner colleagues to improve our competitiveness. During the class, Alex gave us enough space to swap ideas, thoughts, and real work experiences in the whole group. I am excited to bring the practices that we covered to my team and support the product managers in adapting their stances to be more successful.
Hans-Peter Schreiber
Absolute recommendation!
Most important message first:
I can totally recommend this course!
The course consisted of 7 people (6 students + Alexander Hardt as trainer) and we had a great chemistry from the very beginning.
I really liked Alexander's teaching approach:
- Introducing the PO from an abstract Agile Product Management point of view and then presenting its implementation via Scrum.
- Mixing different ways of elaboration of the course's contents: Direct presentation, time-boxed discussions and working out individual examples (by means of a fictional product) for abstract concepts.
Alexander encouraged to openly discuss our findings and to gather our individual "lessons learned". It goes without saying that Alexander was always open and eager to answer our questions, and provided an encouraging joyful atmosphere.
These two days were full of interesting information, and it never got boring.
Thank you Alex! :-)
Stefan Haag
Solid training
An explanation of Kanban followed by a detailed introduction on how to implement Kanban into Scrum.

Appreciate note to coach Alexander Hardt
I would like to appreciate my coach Alexander Hardt for his kind support during my PSM-I exam preparations. He helped me to understand the Scrum concepts with real time examples & also shared Key notes for a quick revision. I wish him great success in his noble profession of teaching. Thanks a lot dear Alex. :-)

Alex is an excellent and experienced trainer
I really enjoyed being part of the course with Alex. We had interesting and enlightening discussions on practical topics. Thank you for the helpful advice.
Daniel Mark
Good online session!
We had a really good online session with Alex! He was clear and explained well, he also took his time and had patience.
The way of working with Zoom, breakout rooms and Mural was a really good way to keeping it entertaining while not being able to be physically in the same room. I know that Covid has forced all of us to go online, but I still prefer the real classroom trainings above the online ones. Specially because there are less distractions, think of: work emails & telephones, things happening at home in and outside.
Seeing also the subjects spoken and to be covered, I think personally I would have liked this training to be 3 days. Felt like there was more to discuss and review. Further it was an interesting training and gave me better insight to my new position as a PO.
Janine van Warmerdam
An exciting and goal-oriented PAL-E training
The PAL-E training was very target-oriented with good practical cases during the course. The trainer was very emphatic with a lot of experience. He guided us through the topics in a very targeted manner. I had a great fun in this group and I learned a lot of so I can use it direcly in my daily business. I can recommand this course and the trainer.
Thank you so much and Best Regards.

Inspiring for finding new ways to improve
The first part was a good refresh about Scrum and Kanban. There were many good ideas and inspiration for combining both. If you think there is nothing you can improve in your team anymore, here is the way to develop your team even further

Excellent course with very knowledgable and friendly trainer.
I appreciated the small online classroom and the profound tools and techniques used; also the case studies and the sharing of each other experiences.
Some excercises could be in more depth and detail to better train and learn in practice.
Trainer is highly recommended

Good deep dive into Product Ownership and Entrepreneurship
The training was well planned and a good mix of input from the trainer, exchanging experiences from the participants, and workshops.
Oliver Monneke
Great introduction to Scrum and the challenges of working as a Product Owner
We have gained a lot of insight into the topic. The course was suitable for the beginners among the participants as well as for those who have been practicing Scrum (or something like that ;)) for several years.
The material was very well prepared and the course was very interactive, so we worked through most of the content ourselves. In addition, there were some practical examples that helped us to move forward.
Also very positive was the pragmatic approach to the methodology, which focused more on how Scrum and agility advances a company and how the individual components of the framework contribute to it (how can we increase value).
The course has helped me to rekindle my motivation to stand up for agile working in our company and to reduce the vacuum between project methodology and an agile approach, in which you always move as a product owner.

Alexander Hardt is an amazing trainer. His classroom is interactive and workshop based, which helped me remember concepts really well. Alex has been supportive enough in explaining me certain topics after the sessions got over.
His teachings helped me clear PSPO I.

Alexander has a wide range of experience and he will give you 100% practical advice how to apply the practices from the class in your daily business. After the two days I was full of enthusiasm to apply what I newly learned.

Alexander convyed the Scrum framework in an excellent way to me, as someone who took his first class in regards to Scrum. He gave usefull insigths and was able to close the gap between theory and practice. 100% recommendation!

Excellent instructor!
The instructor was excellent. In three days it didn't even get boring. Despite the virtual wall (due to Corona), the change between theoretical and practical part was optimal. Although I thought I knew Scrum (despite having already completed certification), I learned a lot more about it. I would recommend him anytime.
Dominik Blumenau
Great gift to be guided
It was a great gift to be guided through the PSM I training with Alex. Competence, experience, structure, transfer of theory into practice and participant orientation, everything was given. We all learned a lot and could pass the certification. - Thanks to Alex!

Alex didn't just follow through with the training according to plan A, but we moved easily and loosely through the individual chapters and, depending on the focus of the group, worked on topics more or less intensively.

Alex's experience pays off
An intensive PSPO-training for product people, which Alex characterizes with his calmness, depth and many years of experience. In one word: excellent!
Boeffi
Great PAL-E workshop!
I have already been dealing with Scrum for a few years, but PAL-E with Alexander Hardt has helped me a lot again. Above all a deeper understanding of the role and tasks of management in agile organizations. The training was a great combination of content and exercises, especially the case studies helped to differentiate and understand the roles of leadership, product owner, Scrum Master and team.
Alexander has a very relaxed and calm way of moderating. This was especially helpful for the online training, which can be very exhausting over two days.
Isa Triesch
Excellent Training
I never visited a training like this!
I am honestly stunned by the insight you could get of other roles and positions from our daily work.
Your working day may be confronted by decisions coming from other persons being in other positions.
Understanding from where they come and why he or she is choosing a specific decision is something priceless.
Thank you for this Great Training Alex!
Ruben Ramirez Leon
A very good training and update
I may take part in a training session with Alexander Hardt as an agile scrum.org coach and trainer. The training was due to COV-19 online. It was very well prepared and carried out very professionally. For me personally, it was a good update after many years as an active agile coach and Scrum Master. I can highly recommend Alexander as a agile trainer and coach, he lives the values, is very empathetic and absolutely appreciative person.Thank you very much.
Konstantin Thisiadis
Great remote training with valuable learnings!
In a virtual classroom (we could blame COVID-19 for that), I joined a training by Alex about PSPO. It was a comfortable environment with an excellent balance between theory, practices and personal experiences. We learned a lot in the sessions and I can't wait to apply it!

Virtual PSPO 1 Training - perfectly set up and done!
The PSPO1 training, conducted virtually, due to the Corona situation was really good.It was arranged via MS Teams because of data privacy and security issues with Zoom and Mural for collaboration. Apart from some technical hick-ups at the beginning the training was very beneficial and professionally managed by the host, Alexander Hardt. I would definately do it again!
Daniel Lutz
