This is my 3rd course within a span of 10 months and the first one with Scrum.org.
I find it really useful, knowledgable and great.
It's the Mural slides I don't like much plus it would be excellent if there are references to books on each chapter.

Slow start - fantastic end
I could have done without the first half of the first day as it was slow going and I honestly cannot remember any of that content. After lunch on day 1 the training truly became a fantastic learning experience for me because we began to review the framework and began to practice it in our group exercises. The post exercise discussions were also helpful in tying the theory to how real life project work manifests. The exercises in which we had explain the theory to other class mates were useful to me because they highlighted areas of the framework I did not fully understand myself. Our training coach was great. He was very insightful and prompted us to start to think for ourselves early on in the course.

Full of useful games and facilitation…
Full of useful games and facilitation techniques that any leaders in an agile context can apply at their solution space immediately.
Maybe the class could be done with a Kanban board indicating what was done, what's in progress now and what comes next.
Frankfurt could be a better central location for the training in Germany.

Breakout rooms in Zoom were a life-saver for many facilitators, trainers and Scrum Masters in recent months. As many of you probably already know, those breakout rooms aim to allow smaller groups to work independently. That increases engagement of each participant.

I had the pleasure to sit down with Dan Vacanti, who has helped develop the Kanban Method and is the course steward of Scrum.org's Professional Scrum with Kanban course, and record this Agile.FM episode.
Dan and I talk about Scrum with Kanban and how agile processes can compliment each other. We talked about the communities, metrics and predictability which does not come as a surprise as Dan is also the author of two agile books:
When Will It Be Done?
Actionable Agile Metrics for Predictability
More information about Dan, the PSK training as well his insights on Kanban on the www.agile.fm showpage as well the episode itself.
Coincidentally, the latest edition to the Agile Poster series is a complimentary Kanban Poster which is now ready to be pre-ordered.

A few weeks ago, I had a wonderful conversation with Diana Larsen on Agile FM, and it did not come as a surprise, that the topic of retrospectives came up. Diana is the co-author of the book Agile Retrospectives , which has been very influential in many agile careers, including mine.

Even though applying agile processes in that context is often a good and valuable idea, business agility is a much bigger term than that. It means how well an organization is equipped to react to market changes, merging customer needs or other factors that impact the business as a whole.

The Agile Transformation Kata is for example such a practice that reinforces an agile mindset during an agile transformation, and through many reflection cycles allows to adapt to new emerging needs, like COVID-19.

The premise of Lean Coffee is relatively straight forwarded. Like-minded people that want to create or discuss something they care about use this tool to organize their conversations.
