Marc Kaufmann

The training was very interactive and practical. The trainer understood to catch his audience and tried to answer every question we had.

I enjoyed the course and it was very interesting and impressive how the topics and values of SCRUM were delivered: A mixture of theory and real scenarios.

Marc has an absolute convincing habit of getting you to burn for Sccrum and its values. He lives Scrum while coaching it. The PSM Workshop was not only a learning it was pure fun and joy to me.

The Professional Scrum Master training was absolutely outstanding! Marc is one of the best trainers I’ve ever had – highly knowledgeable, super engaging, and full of energy. 10/10, highly recommended!

The class was great! Very hands-on learning through group exercises, relatable use cases and a practical approach to impart theoretical concepts. Marc clearly has a lot of experience and expertise, which he happily shared throughout the class. He created a comfortable atmosphere where every participant was welcome to share experiences, ask questions or discuss different views. I can definitely recommend Marc's class as I left with more insights to Scrum, new ideas and new connections.

Es war ein Super Training. Sehr gute Darstellung und Erklärung der Theorie. So macht ein Training spaß!

Didaktisch top, viel Inhalt in wenig Zeit rübergebracht und gute Hands-On Beispiele sowie Praxisübungen, inkl. einfachen Tools für die eigene (agile) Arbeit. Last but not least eine super Atmosphäre im Kurs geschaffen. Weiter so Marc!

Das beste Scrum Master Training! Marc und Simon haben einen hervorragenden Rahmen für das Training geschaffen und sind individuell auf die Bedürfnisse der Teilnehmenden eingegangen. Ihre langjährige Erfahrung war in jeder Phase des Trainings spürbar, ebenso wie ihre Leidenschaft für agile Methoden. Das Training war bewusst sehr interaktiv gestaltet – statt klassischer Wissensvermittlung stand das eigene Erleben und Anwenden im Vordergrund. Durch gezielte Übungen, Reflexionen und den aktiven Austausch in der Gruppe konnten wir das Scrum-Framework auf einer tieferen Ebene verstehen und anwenden. Gleichzeitig wurden alle relevanten Inhalte für die PSM II-Zertifizierung umfassend abgedeckt. Besonders wertvoll war für mich der starke Praxisbezug und die Möglichkeit, eigene Fragestellungen und Erfahrungen einzubringen. Ich habe viele konkrete Impulse sowohl für meine berufliche Rolle als Scrum Master als auch für meine persönliche Weiterentwicklung mitgenommen. Vielen Dank für dieses inspirierende und lehrreiche Training – ich kann es allen wärmstens empfehlen, die ihre Scrum-Kompetenz vertiefen und sich als Scrum Master weiterentwickeln möchten!

I really enjoyed this training with two very competent trainers. Especially useful for me are the personal stories and experiences of the other participants, that enrich the theoretical input. I go home with so many new ideas and so much valuable input. Thank you very much!

Mark war voll da und hat uns auf eine tolle Scrum Reise mitgenommen. Es war immer spannend, interaktiv und nie langweilig. Er hat den Raum auch immer gut gelesen und sich auf unsere Wünsche und Fragen eingestellt. Man merkt richtig, dass er Scrum voll und ganz lebt. Toller Kurs - kann ich nur weiter empfehlen. Und ich freu mich auf den nächsten Kurs.

Fantastic Trainer, great preparation for the PAL role and assessment. Anytime again.

Tolle Mischung zwischen theoretischen Tools, Erlebbar machen in Übungen, Erfahrungsaustausch mit Anderen, Kennenlernen von Online-Arbeitsplattform Mural, strukturierter und fokussierter Arbeitsweise und gemeinsamem Spass.

Tolle Schulung kurzweilig durch die vielen Aufgaben

Marc delivered an excellent Scrum training that was both practical and engaging. His well-crafted exercises helped concepts click for everyone in the room, and his approachable teaching style made the material accessible. The training was efficient, effective, and actually enjoyable—a rare combination. Marc's expertise was evident throughout, making for a valuable learning experience that I'd recommend without hesitation.

Angenehme Lernatmosphäre mit anschaulichen Übungen. Hat mir sehr viel Spaß gemacht!

Ich hatte kürzlich das Vergnügen, an einem Professional Scrum Master Training unter der Leitung von Marc (Kaufmann) teilzunehmen, und ich kann es nur wärmstens empfehlen. Von Anfang bis Ende war es eine unglaublich bereichernde Erfahrung! 🚀 Marc hat uns direkt am Anfang des Trainings geholfen, unsere Ziele klar zu definieren und darüber nachzudenken, warum wir hier sind. Dies setzte den perfekten Fokus für den Rest des Kurses. 🎯 Besonders beeindruckend war, wie Marc die unterschiedlichen Erfahrungslevel der Teilnehmenden mühelos berücksichtigt hat. Jede/r konnte sich ideal entwickeln und ein optimales Lernumfeld erleben. 🏆 Raum für Fragen war in jedem Moment gegeben. Marc nahm sich umfassend Zeit, um alle unsere Fragen zu beantworten, was für ein tiefes Verständnis der Inhalte sorgte. 💬 Das Training war exzellent strukturiert, mit regelmäßigen Pausen, die halfen, unsere Konzentration und Energie hoch zu halten. Diese Pausen wurden durch eine 1A Verpflegung ergänzt - ständig waren köstliche Snacks und Getränke verfügbar. 🍎☕️ Ein weiterer Höhepunkt waren die Gallery Walks, praktischen Übungen und regelmäßige Reflektionen, die unser Lernen auf kreative Weise bereichert und vertieft haben. 📚👣 Marc beeindruckte mich mit seinen anschaulichen Beispielen und ließ seine umfangreiche Erfahrung als Scrum Master, PO und Developer in das Training mit einfließen. Mit Bezügen wie FROCC, dem "Spice Girls Meeting" und dem Scrum Framework machte er das Lernen "einfach". 🔍📈 Die Prüfungsvorbereitung war klar erklärt, wodurch ich mich ohne Stress auf die Zertifizierung einstellen konnte. 📜✅ Besonders wichtig war die detaillierte Darstellung des Agile Mindsets, das als Grundlage für alles diente. Marc verdeutlichte, warum dies essentiell für erfolgreiche Zusammenarbeit ist. 🧠💡 Insgesamt war das Training mit Marc eine absolute Bereicherung und eine engagierte Lernreise. Ich würde ihn und das Training jedem empfehlen, der sein Wissen über Scrum vertiefen möchte. Ein Top-Erlebnis von Anfang bis Ende! 🥇 Vielen Dank, Marc! 👏😊

Marc lehrt nicht nur die Elemente von Scrum und einem agilen Mindset sondern lebt diese auch. Dies hat sich schon vor dem Kurs trotz meiner kurzfristigen Anmeldung und dem damit verbundenen Kontakt und zu klärenden Fragen gezeigt. In dem sich über 2 Tage erstreckenden Kurs wird einem das Scrum-Framework mit all seinen Fassetten näher gebracht und darüber hinaus an praxisnahen Beispielen erläutert. Fragen werden nicht nur möglichst genau beantwortet sondern sind erwünscht um die Erfahrung für alle Beteiligten zu verbessern. Ich empfehle jedem Scrum-Interessierten diesen Kurs.

I can fully recommend the training with Marc and Simon. The two of them complement each other perfectly and guide you through the two days in a pleasant and varied way. The entire content is developed by the participants themselves with the help of various Liberating Structures, Marc and Simon provide input and impulses, but above all provide training from the back of the room.

The PSM-A classroom with Marc & Simon was a bit different when the most trainings I have participated. 0 %: Power Point 99 %: Interaction In the training we have learned and feel the way a Scrum Master could interact with a group. I was able to: - pass the exam direct - adopt parts directly in my daily work Thx Marc & Simon

Es wurden zu jeder Zeit alle Teilnehmer:innen eingebunden. Lernen erfolgte durch aktives Mitarbeiten im Rahmen verschiedener Facilitation Übungen. Hierdurch habe ich nicht nur wertvolle Inhalte mitgenommen, sondern auch wirksame Facilitation Möglichkeiten erlebt und kann diese in meine tägliche Arbeit integrieren. Der Austausch mit den anderen Teilnehmer:innen und den Trainern sowie das gemeinsame Erarbeiten von Lösungsideen für individuelle Herausforderungen waren sehr wertvoll.

Die PSM 1 Schulung von Marc Kaufmann in München war extrem interaktiv, lehrreich und kurzweilig. Marc ist methodisch breit aufgestellt, extrem gut im Storytelling und verbindet die Theorie hinter Scrum mit Metaphern, Beispielen aus seiner Berufserfahrung sowie interaktiven Übungen. Er ging stets auf die Fragen, Bedürfnisse und Erfahrungen der Kursteilnehmenden ein.

Wir haben uns in dem Training den Inhalten mit diversen Methoden angeeignet. Diese Methoden können wir ebenso wieder in unsere tägliche Arbeit übernehmen. Ich empfand es sehr angenehm, ein begleitetes Lernen und nicht Frontalunterricht zu erfahren.

Helpful and insightful

I recently completed the PSM II course and it really exceeded my expectations. Marc and Simon demonstrated excellent time management throughout the sessions, ensuring that we covered all the essential topics while engaging in meaningful discussions. The course was packed with practical exercises that I could easily implement the next day. The interactive workshops allowed me to quickly grasp the concepts and I've successfully applied several techniques in my meetings. In addition, whenever I had specific questions, Marc and Simon provided insightful solutions that effectively addressed my concerns. Overall, this PSM II course has significantly improved my skills as a Scrum Master. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to deepen their understanding of Scrum!

The PSM II course with Marc Kaufmann and Simon Flossmann was outstanding. Their deep expertise and engaging teaching methods made complex Scrum concepts easy to understand and apply. I highly recommend this course to anyone looking to advance their Scrum skills.

Ich mag und schätze die Trainings von der Scrum.org sehr. Sehr interaktiv, an eigenen Use Cases, wenig Monologe der TrainerInnen und immer wieder sehr hilfreich zu sehen, welche Formate benutzt werden. Marc und Simon waren sehr kompetent und haben sich sehr gut auf unsere Gruppe eingelassen. Was braucht es für einen fünften Stern? Ich finde 2 Tage sehr anspruchsvoll. Von 9.00 - 17.00 Uhr trotz Pausen und Mittag. Ich merke selbst wie ich ab 15/16 Uhr nicht mehr ganz so gut aufnahmefähig bin. Habe hierfür leider auch keine Alternative. Die Dauer des Trainings verlängern, ist denke ich auch nicht einfach und hilfreich.

This training was not only the perfect preperation for the exam, it was also a great practical experience. Marc and Simon did a great job and I will participate in SCRUM-Schools with them again!

Ich fühle mich nach dem Kurs mit Marc super auf meinen Scrum Master I Zertifikat vorbereitet. Marc bringt einem jeden Schritt genau bei und füllt das Seminar mit Leben sowie coolen Stories zum merken. Ich freue mich auf weitere Kurse mit Marc

Extremely well prepared trainers. Great time management with read the room skills - when we needed time to discuss we had it but still we had the feeling that we would follow a track. Perfect preparation for the exam.

I really liked the training. The time flew by during all of the different exercises. I was able to take a lot with me for my leadership role. Thank you for those great days!

The two day Training Agile Leadership by Marc & Simon was highly professional executed. Every minute was beneficial and on point.

This class provides the perfect basis to start your professional scrum experience. I found it very valuable to derive the key essence of scrum jointly with Marc and the other participants. This is not a front speaker session, instead it was a very interactive and learning by personal experience course.

Das Training mit Marc war echt klasse! Er sorgt von Anfang an für spannende Diskussionen, sodass man sich das Wissen eher gemeinsam erarbeitet, statt es einfach nur serviert zu bekommen. Am Ende fasst er die Ergebnisse nochmal zusammen und ergänzt spannende Details, die man vorher vielleicht gar nicht auf dem Schirm hatte. Dadurch bleibt richtig viel hängen, und man wird zum Mitdenken angeregt. Absolut empfehlenswert!

Im Workshop sind wir anschaulich und praktisch den Hauptthemen auf den Grund gegangen, die ein Meetingergebniss beeinflussen und verbessern können. Es hat Spaß gemacht, war motivierend und das Gelernte ist praxisnah einsetzbar für jeden Moderator und daher unverzichtbar für Scrummaster. Danke für den erkenntnissreichen Tag.

it was very informative and entertaining. the trainer did a great job

Es war ein sehr spannend und abwechslungsreich gestalteter Kurs, der einem gut auf die Prüfung vorbereitet hat und Scrum als spannendes Framework positioniert hat.

Marc is a great teacher and was able to inspire and encourage participants to take on the challenge of becoming Scrum Masters. With his many years' of both practical experience and theoretical mastery he is able to convey the principles of Scrum in a comprehensive and profound way.

Sehr wertvoller Kurs über Scrum generell und die Aufgaben + Rollen des Scrum Masters. Das Wissen und die jahrelange Erfahrung des Trainers sowie aktive, spielerische und sinnvolle Kleingruppenübungen sorgen für einen sehr anregenden, inspirierenden Kurs und viele positive Inputs.

Awesome & Inspiring Nice shaped training with loads of tips and tricks from the two professional Scrum.org trainers Simon Flossmann & Marc Kaufmann. Absolutely Great was: We participants practises many valuable methods to facilitate meetings and workshops very well. It was everything givin you need as a good facilitator! Thanks a lot!

I attended the 2-day intensive ScrumMaster course with Marc Kaufmann, and I highly recommend it. The training was exceptionally well-structured and practical. Marc explained Scrum in a clear and understandable way, providing valuable tips and learning materials that helped me prepare thoroughly for the Scrum exam. The real-life experiences and case studies were especially helpful, as they allowed me to apply what I learned directly. I gained so much from this course, not just for the exam but also for my professional development as a ScrumMaster. Marc is an engaging trainer who addressed all questions and created a great learning environment. I feel fully prepared and would recommend this course to anyone who wants to prepare for the Scrum exam or deepen their knowledge of Scrum. Thank you, Marc!

I had a great time in class with Simon and Marc. They both bring a lot of expertise into the classroom and teach with authenticity and honesty. Thank you!

Come together with the two scrom.org experts Marc and Simon and share knowledge with a wide mixture of attendees. The way Marc and Simon have chosen to go through the main topics of agile leadership was new for me. Focus was on being in action, exchange with one or maximum 3 people and learn a maximum. Great experience.

In contrast to the PSM course this one was about sharing expiriences and best practices from professionals for professionals. There was no explicit teaching in terms of rules from the Scrum Guide but rather different areas of Scrum Master work where the participants worked on refining insights. The two coaches used different methods for each section thus feeding our toolboxes. Well planned, structured and valuable.

perfect time management / refreshing variety of methods / entertaining and practical

Super Training! Man konnte sehr gut folgen, Inhalte wurden super übermittelt. Nicht langweilig und man konnte super mitmachen!

A great training with very good trainers and an active group of participants. What more could you want? A must for all scrum masters, product owners or simply moderators. Lots of examples and one or two new techniques. Many thanks for this!

Really helpful training. Good practical exercise to internalize the techniques. Very friendly and attentive trainers.

2 highgly experienced coaches ran a wonderful class. 2 days with loads of great facilitation examples and a lot of interesting input to think about.

Top lern Atmosphäre, keine langweiligen ppt schlachten sondern hoch interaktiv mit liberating structures, TBR Ansätzen, viel Wissen von den Teilnehmern mit eingebunden. Abgerundet mit vielfältiger Erfahrung der Trainer, die mit Witz und Charme vermittelt wurden. So macht man heute Trainings

Excellent Training! Marc is great at providing structure, fostering engagement and keeping time while being exceptionally kind. He is attentive to questions and explores smaller and larger side-tracks when he feels that it is valuable for an individual or the group. This approach enables trainees to develop a comprehensive understanding.

Marc vermittelt über seine ruhige und kompetente Art viele tolle Impulse für die Praxis. Auch online durch viele praktische Übungen total weiterzuempfehlen.

Es war ein unfassbar interaktives Training, sehr viel learning by doing und durch eigene Fehler lernen. Mit der lockeren Art von Marc und seiner Offenheit für Fragen konnten wir alle wahnsinnig viel mitnehmen, egal wie viele Schnittstellen&Erfahrungen alle aus der Gruppe davor schon mit Scrum hatten. Ich fühlte mich gut vorbereitet für die Zertifizierung, vor allem nachdem man aktiv über das Training nochmal reflektiert hatte, am Ende sind die zwei Tage doch sehr intensiv und kompakt. Ich würde das Training jedem empfehlen, der die Grundsätze von Scrum und/oder Agilität im Allgemeinen kennenlernen mag + ggf. auch ein Auge auf eine Zertifizierung wirft.

Great Trainer. Praxisnahme Beispiele. Lebendiger Austausch und Vermittlung des Stoffes

Marc's training on the Professional Scrum Master I was highly effective and engaging. He created an atmosphere that truly embodied the Scrum values, fostering openness, respect, and a strong sense of commitment within the group. The sessions were well-structured and interactive, allowing for a deep understanding of Scrum principles and practices. Overall, Marc's approach facilitated a supportive learning environment that helped participants gain practical insights and confidence in applying Scrum in their own teams.

Very illustrative training, which above all teaches the practice behind the guideline and invites you to think for yourself.

Great Trainer, everthing was marvelous.

Marc conducted the Scrum master training in a very practical and clear way. I would recommend the training at any time

Marc did a really good job by facilitating all attendees to learn about Scrum by applying the principles and values which Scrum is built upon. It's the best training experience I've ever had. Also he helped to prepare for the certificate so I was able to pass the exam without issues. I will definetly do the advanced training next!

The workshop with Marc was interactive, well structured and entertaining. Marc is THE advocate for agile principles and values and lives them actively in the workshop. Many thanks for this great experience and yes, now it's up to us/me to actively learn and adapt! :)

Marc created a great atmosphere where you don’t feel afraid to ask questions and open up. It was a good mix of theory and practical exercises. Marc’s approach was also very realistic and not as dogmatic as SCRUM theory is often presented. It helped us as a group to have a common understanding of the topic.

Great trainers and format. First explaining everything on a theoretical level, then explaining it to one other participant and discussing it works really great. A lot of great theory, brought into the real world while discussing it.

The way Marc presented the content of the class and the way we all worked together in the class made this one of my best trainings in the last years.

Excellent training. Very good link between theory and practice.

Marc is extremely professional and the training is very well organized.

Marc is awesome! My knowledge on Scrum was not wide at all, and he explains very well to all levels and encourage you to be your best version to become Scrum Master!

Marc and Simon organized the two days in a very structured and practice-oriented way. The participants were able to contribute their own experiences and take away important tips. The two days flew by. The training is highly recommended for agile managers working with Scrum!

Kurzweilige, kleine Einheiten mit Fokus auf einen konkreten Lernerfolg. Hat mir gut gefallen.

Marc ist ein erfahrener Trainer und angenehmer Gesprächspartner. Stets auf Augenhöhe und mit vielen Praxisbeispielen hat er das SCRUM-Framework sehr gut vermittelt. Ich hatte das Gefühl jederzeit Fragen stellen zu können und bin mit der Lernmaterialien für die Prüfungsvorbereitung zufrieden. Im ersten Anlauf bestanden. Ein gutes Gefühl das neue Wissen in die Praxis zu bringen. Dankeschön!

Das Training von Simon und Marc war absolut Spitze. Die beiden haben sehr gute Antennen die Stimmung der Gruppe zu lesen und auf unsere Bedürfnisse zu reagieren. Sie schafften es innerhalb eines Tages, dass wir eine Vielzahl von Tools & Methoden selbst ausprobieren und erleben konnten, was und wie die einzelnen Facilitation-Werkzeuge wirken. Außerdem war es zu jedem Zeitpunkt möglich Fragen zu stellen! Am hilfreichsten war für mich die Erklärung der Groan-Zone und wie ich es schaffe mit ihr zu arbeiten, um sie möglichst gering zu halten. Durch die ständige Möglichkeit die Dinge in einem sicheren Rahmen ausprobieren zu können, wurden die Facilitation Möglichkeiten sehr anschaulich! Nach der Schulung fühlte ich mich sicherer im Umgang mit Gruppen und der Moderation von schwierigeren Themen. Ein herzliches Danke an die beiden- ich kann ihr Training nur weiterempfehlen!

I recently attended a two-day workshop on “Scrum Professional Agile Leadership,” and it was excellent. Many thanks to Marc and Simon, the trainers, for their outstanding delivery. The workshop was well-structured, combining theoretical knowledge with practical exercises. Marc and Simon explained complex concepts clearly and were responsive to individual questions and needs. The hands-on activities and real-world examples were particularly valuable, allowing us to apply what we learned immediately. Overall, the workshop was highly informative and inspiring. I now feel well-equipped to implement agile leadership principles in my professional environment. Thanks again to Marc and Simon for this great experience!

fantastic coach!

Mindset and Overview for Scrum

Marc and Simon, thank you so much! This training was not only fun but also incredibly insightful, delivered in an interactive manner that kept us engaged throughout. The practical application of techniques during the workshop was brilliant. Being able to take on the role of facilitator and receive direct feedback from all other participants was immensely helpful in understanding and refining our skills. I believe this training is a valuable addition for anyone working within a Scrum framework. I'm eagerly anticipating the advanced Scrum Master training and look forward to seeing you both again soon!

In three exciting and extremely interesting days, Marc allowed me to delve deeper into the world of Scrum. His empathetic and flexible approach responded to the different needs of my colleagues and myself. I was not only impressed by the professionalism, the expertise and the side stories, but also by the way Marc conveyed the content in a relaxed, friendly and fun way. In my opinion, Marc is a very good teacher and I can highly recommend his course.

Simon und Marc ist die Gestaltung des Trainings sehr gelungen. Es war interaktiv, spaßig und lehrreich. Alle Teilnehmer waren sehr freundlich und offen. Besonders gut fand ich, dass es die Möglichkeit gab innerhalb der Aufgaben im Training selbst die Rolle des Moderators übernehmen zu können und in einem wohlwollenden Umfeld eine neue Moderationsmethode ausprobieren zu können. Ich konnte für mich einige neue Methoden mitnehmen und freue mich darauf diese auszuprobieren. Absolute Empfehlung! Danke für das tolle Training!

Thanks Marc, it was very very cool to participate. You made it easy to learn, in terms of including us in the course and content and you build very easy and nice knowledge transfer to keep that stuff in mind. I'll recommend you and your course to my friends and colleagues.

Faboulous team of two super experienced trainers, sharing their insights and experiences with the class. Very welcoming atmosphere, so we could spend the two days on a basis of trust, respect, openess, focus, commitment and courage. Guiding us through numerous situations and encouraging us to bring our own experiences and questions. Super input for eyeryday life and well prepared for the PSM II exam!

Marc is a great trainer with exceptional skills in motivating and teaching people. Over the 2 day course I've not only learned the purpose of Scrum and all its components, but I also learned more about myself and how to encourage change in my mindset and that of those around me. The training consisted of a perfect mix of theory, collaboration and reflection. It was a great and fun experience. Thank you, Marc!

Content gets wrapped in methods, that you can instantly use and apply on your own Scrum Teams. The class is extremely interactive and bases on the knowledge of all attendees. Even after 2 days of being 8 hours per day in the class, I did not feel tired or exhausted! I really can recommend it to any Scrum Master with the theoretic basic knowledge and somewhat experience! The class will help consolidate and deepen your knowledge.

I loved to attend this class. Its recomendable to all

Marc hat einen fantastischen Job gemacht, die Scrum Elemente greifbar zu machen durch Übungen, Erfahrungswerte und Probleme aus der Gruppe.

The PAL-E training from Marc & Simon gives you an in-depth insight into various dimensions of agile leadership. The training presented various topics and perspectives in a practice-orientated way. I found the interactive exchange with the trainers and the other participants especially helpful. In addition to the different levels and approaches to leadership and the challenges, I was impressed by the situational approaches. With "Agile Maturity" and Evidence-Based Management, I understand even better how I can support my organisation and people with agility. I can only recommend Marc & Simon's PAL-E training to reach the next level of agile leadership.

Excellent Training!

very hands-on experience - can fullly recommend!

Ich fand der Kurs hat von Marc gelegt. Er hat alles sehr praktisch vermittelt und dadurch wurde die Theorie für einen selbst oder zumindest für mich sehr viel besser handhabbar. Wirklich ein Super Dozent!!

Had a great session with Marc including profound theortical information, lots of interactive exercises and room for questions. Highly recommended!

Marc is a fantastic trainer and his performance was absolutely inspiring. The whole three days were completely interactive with almost 0 PowerPoint monologue, but filled with tons of practical stories and use cases. Thank you very much for those three motivating and fun days, I have learned a lot and I feel ready to start as a Scrum Master!

Marc held a great training without showing content on ppt. By working out the content in the team I expect to memorize it a lot better than by listening to the trainer. By adding his own experience he made it even more tangible.

On 20 March 2024 I attended the Professional Scrum Facilitation Skills Training with Marc and Simon and can only recommend it to everyone. The location alone is reason enough to do a training with the two of them ;-) But beyond that, it was very impressive to see how a group of strangers can be united by experiencing and actively shaping different facilitation techniques. Over the course of the day, the group worked on a wide variety of topics using new facilitation methods. In contrast to other training courses, here you are not just an active participant but can slip into the role of facilitator again and again and thus try out new things in a safe environment. It was particularly helpful for me to realise that you don't need an infinite number of methods, but that it is enough to have a few methods in your toolbox for a few key situations, which you can then skilfully combine again and again to create an overall concept. This realisation will help me a lot when facilitating retrospectives and I have actually already put one or two ideas from the training directly into practice.

Marc and Simon made the most out of the alloted time with a hands-on approach to facilitation that helped the course attendees gain a better grasp of facilitation within the context of Scrum, working through several excercises that we as Scrum Masters could easily relate to, since we've all encountered them at some point in our career. The focus on principles over techniques is something that is especially relevant for more experienced Scrum Masters while newer Scrum Masters receive a handy toolbox that can guide them through most facilitation challenges.

Super PSM Kurs! Meine Erwartungen an den Kurs wurden übertroffen. Die Vorgehensweise von Marc halfen mir und den anderen Teilnehmern das Scrum Framework genauer zu verstehen, gewisse Denkweisen (Agiles Mindset) aufzubauen und die eigenen Ansichten von Scrum zu adaptieren ;-) Meine Fragen wurden veranschaulichend beantwortet und halfen mir dabei, die Thematik besser zu verstehen. Ich kann den Professional Scrum Master Kurs mit Marc bedenkenlos weiterempfehlen.

Marc makes the course very interactive and has great ways of passing on the information. The venue is also great! Highly recommended.

I really enjoyed the training especially because Marc & Simon created a safe space for practical interactions and exchange of experiences between the participating Scrum Masters. I will definitely take the methods used by the trainers as inspiration for my future workshops. Dry PowerPoint battles are a thing of the past!

It was a great class with great teachers. Not forgetting the other participants, all very strong personalities. It was a real pleasure!

Very interactive training, always giving new technices and get great input from other experienced Scrum masters. A lot of attention how the active part was set up, to also cover the theory behind the framework.

The Scrum Master Advanced Training training has been beautifully designed to ensure a balanced mix of theory and practice. Each thematic block promoted the active participation of participants through exciting discussions and exchange of knowledge. The training had a strong focus on interactivity, with group activities, role-playing scenarios, and case studies to reinforce key concepts. Participants were encouraged to think critically, solve team problems, and apply agile principles in simulated environments. In summary, Marc and Simon's Scrum Master Advanced Training is an essential step for any Agile practitioner who wants to further develop their skills. The training offers expert facilitation, practical tools and an appropriate amount of humor and lightness to support the learning process. It empowers participants not only as Scrum Masters, but also as a driving force for change in their organizations. Overall, highly recommended!

Marc and Simon are exceptional personalities and create an excellent learning atmosphere. My expectations were exceeded. For everyone who would like to take part in one their courses: you can expect training from real experts at eye level! Thank you very much for that!

The advanced professional scrum master training helped me a lot to deepen my Scrum knowledge focusing on Scrum principles, values and empiricism. Thanks to the many practical exercises and the exciting discussions in group, I was able to gain new insights for my work with the scrum team as well as with the organization. I have learned a lot about active listening, liberating structures, setting product and sprint goals, conflict management and methods to support the product owner. After this training, I will focus much more on making the scrum values transparent anf working with the product owner on our goals. All in all, Simon and Marc did a great job. Thank you!

Marc is not only a very experienced professional but an excellent communicator. I enjoyed the course and took a lot of useful knowledge from 'behind the scenes'. Am grateful for the insides, because as they say, Scrum is easy to understand but hard to master.

We had 3 days as a team of 9 from the same company with Marc. It was instructive but also fun. I really can recommend trainings with Marc (online as well as on-campus).
