Professional Scrum Product Owner - Advanced

Hello!

Do you want to gain a better understanding of what it means to deliver value, and how to express that value inside and outside of your organization?

This Advanced course for experienced Product Owners and Product Managers is a hands-on, activity-based course that focuses on helping you expand their ability to establish a vision, validate your hypotheses, and ultimately deliver more value to your stakeholders. 

Through case study exercises combined with instruction from an experienced practitioner, course participants will gain the entrepreneurial product leadership skills and practices critical to growing as a successful Product Owner. Participants should have at least one year of Product Owner experience and a practical knowledge of Scrum in order to participate in, and benefit from, these exercises.

The Product Owner role is multifaceted, requiring those in the role to engage in behaviours and adopt mindsets beyond the core of Agility and the Scrum framework. This course therefore goes beyond fundamental topics and deepens the attendee’s understanding of the role through the exploration of the many stances of a professional Product Owner, which include:

• The Customer Representative
• The Visionary 
• The Decision Maker
• The Experimenter
• The Collaborator
• The Influencer

As we explore each stance, the course will enable participants with a plethora of complimentary practices and skills to help them embrace and leverage each stance.

Who Should Attend

The course does not address the Scrum framework (much), and we assume people have a proper understanding of the Scrum framework.

 Participants should have at least one year of experience as a Product Owner or Product Manager, while multiple years of experience and having attended the Professional Scrum Product Owner course and passing PSPO is preferred, but not mandatory.

Other people that might benefit from the PSPO-A course include Entrepreneurs, Organisational leaders, Agile Coaches and Scrum Masters.
