Lorenz's Scrum Master and Product Owner courses are exceptional. He has lots of agile working experience on real world projects. He knows how to make it work, and he understood our pain points and was able to give us good advice, which was exactly what we needed. I strongly recommend anyone who is transforming their team to run agile taking both Scrum Master and Product Owner courses, and those who are currently Product Managers or Project Managers to take the Product Owner course.

-- Lunar Au, Application Developer at JPMorgan Chase & Co.
I have known Lorenz for more than a decade. He is a smart one who always looks for improvement and never settles. With his fruitful development experience, he is a great Scrum trainer.
During the course, he explained clearly the core concept of Scrum, what makes it work and fail. Also, he demonstrated how a Scrum Master should work by doing group exercises and leading our discussions. More than being a good Scrum Master, he also taught us how to deal with other parties, like business users and senior management.
I have to say this course is super useful, as it cleared most of my questions/concerns of using Scrum in my company. Most importantly, I had a 360 degree view of Scrum, not only from developer team aspect but also from the business and management side. It totally changed my mindset of how a project should be managed comparing to Waterfall Methodology.
Also I met some great classmate and had a chance to understand how Scrum runs in other environments.
I highly recommend anyone who would like to learn Scrum or wants to be a Scrum Master to attend Lorenz's training class. By the way, he provides a great after service support by answering lots of my stupid questions.
