Can highly recommend Martin Hinshelwood as an instructor
Great course, great instructor, great participants!
With his informal and conversational style, Martin taught a lot valuable things about being a Professional Scrum Master.
Every Scrum Master should take a Professional Scrum Master II class. If you get an opportunity, I can recommend taking one with Mr. Hinshelwood. :)
Christian Neverdal
Amazing training and trainer !
This was one of the best training I have ever been to. Martin was engaging and knowledgeable and made the subject entertaining and fun to learn. He is passionate for Scrum and definitely passed it on to all of us. He was available to answer our questions at all times and always had time for us.
Highly recommend it ! Martin being the trainer makes all the difference!

A very good mentorship, all the examples presented were very valuable to understand the Scrum concepts presented.
All the breakout room sessions helped to have a good dynamic.

German Heredia
Great Course and Awesome Trainer
Great Course. Martin showed us their scrum experience and also their experience leading this type of training with many people involved. He is always open to analyzing our doubts and putting our minds to work to think about the benefits of scrum and the relationships within these aspects.

Laura Gordon
Good content and better teacher
Good content and better teacher, we faced our previous scrum experience, learn about the core values and it's importance, all while doing hands-on practise all over these and more Scrum concepts and practises.
It's worth the time, thanks Martin!

Fantastic class!
Christian Neverdal
Great value!
I took the PSK training with Martin and I had an absolutely amazing experience. The way Martin presented the training curricula, the use of digital whiteboard (Mural), the practical exercises, the facilitation and training techniques were just top.
I loved how he made us feel like a team, and how he integrated our cultural diversity. Looking forward to furthering my training and I am now part of the great online community he built.
Great job Martin! Thanks for such a wonderful experience and for the knowledge sharing!

Worth every single minute…
Martin is one of the best mentors in my business career, his classes are excellent with lots of workshop activities, to gain knowledge needed in order to discover Scrum as it IS. Thank you!
Dimi Metoglou
Martin - Excellent as always
Martin, as always strikes a nice balance between the material and discussion, this was no different.
The flow of the course felt right, even if mural was a little unresponsive at times, Am looking forward to diving a little deeper into the topic, and adopting it within the workplace.
It was also a good call to split the class over two half days (a solid day on teams would have been too much).
Barry Mccarthy
Great course experience!
I experienced Martin's course as a great learning experience. The course was a very good mix of theory, exercises, real life examples and discussion regarding scrum and product ownership.
I was very happily surprised about the Naked Agility community around the course with many articles and sources on a daily basis.
It's safe to say I will be doing more courses at Naked Agility.
Dekker
Well structured and enjoyable course
Well structured course that covered a lot of information, allowing people to lead through conversation and participation without losing the sense of direction and required coverage.

Dan Guzman
The classes with Martin
The classes with Martin, has made me ask myself why am i just getting on board with this?
Its been brilliant in understanding how people and systems engineer products.
it has changed my views about projects and the involvement of people.
i had placed so much trust in processes and equipment, not considering that these processes and equipment had actually been developed by other people in teams. so if i could trust my team, we could develop a process that other teams could rely on in projects with in my organization.

Loved Product Owner course
If you are looking forward to diving into Scrum, I recommend Martin as a trainer because he brings theory and practice together.
Neringa Young
Enjoyable days
I really like the class. The 2 days are packed with information, exercises and discussion. Martin is an easy-going and knowledgeable trainer that will spend his free time answering any questions you still have after the course even if they are not 100% about the course topic and would be a different course topic.
Tomas Komarek

Excellent training tailored to our business (Professional Services)
Martin is a very experienced and charismatic trainer. He made sure everyone was comfortable and could participate in the course. The pace of the sessions was just right for me and I learned a lot in quite a short period of time.
We'd worked with Martin before and he was able to adapt the sessions to our particular business problems; howver the material has relevence to anyone using Scrum for delivering software projects.
I'd highly recommend the course and Martin as a trainer.

Really engaging and useful course, would recommend
The course I completed was a great refresher of the core principles of professional scrum development. The course was thoroughly enjoyable, with plenty of audience participation to keep everyone engaged, lots of different types of activities which helped break up the course and a fun development project to help demonstrate the how the learning we were doing was applied. Martin (our course trainer) was fantastic and was able to use his industry knowledge and experience to provide plenty of examples that we as participants could relate to.
Dan
Scrum training as anchored by Martins…
Scrum training as anchored by Martins was excellent. It is learning curve for me as it directly applies to my job role particularly in the executing of project in an incremental manner.
The adaptive approach of ensuring most valuable functionality is produced first while maintaining high interaction with the stakeholders with the definition of done is the way to go in managing a project.

I really enjoyed attending the Professional Scrum Master (PSM1) training with Martin Hinshelwood (naked Agility).
Martin is so knowledgeable and he made it very easy for me to understand scrum even from a practical point of view. I learnt more during the 4-day training than I had learnt in a month. I will definitely recommend Martin as an experienced trainer and coach without any reservation. Thank you so much.

The honest truth is that the two days Martin took us in class was what we needed; a hands-on to praticalise all we'd learned on Scrum and Agile. Listening to the recording sessions revealed indeed that it was an outstanding exercise on its own.
Thank you, Martin.

Professional Scrum Master Training
I really enjoyed the Professional Scrum Master training class. Martin and Russell were awesome teachers. They didn't just teach to the test but used real world issues they have faced in the past and were more than willing to talk through issues we face in our own organization.

Knowledgeable and Entertaining Instructors

Ryan Lowe
Great work!
After taking a bootcamp at WozU that included Agile training, I was left wanting more knowledge on Agile. Jim and Martin did a fantastic job of explaining the concepts and matching them with relevant examples from our industry. They built a confidence in their knowledge base that is super tough to be pessimistic about! The format was wonderful and built in a manner such to grab and hold the attention of students. I was terrifically impressed with the full course.

JIM SAMMONS & MARTIN HINSHELWOOD - The Duo
JIM SAMMONS & MARTIN HINSHELWOOD - The Duo, Great pair of coaches for PAL-E & PSPO courses I got trained, with a very interactive environment during these tough times of staying remote, keeping each and every trainee engaged & lively conversations with write amount of break out sessions, real world scenario comparisons as they explained and SCRUM Framework & Professional Scrum competencies.
Ramgopal Mushini
PAL-e : a valuable class to start the agile evolution
I just experienced the power of Martin Hinshelwood & Jim Sammons during a PAL-e private training class. As a leader within an organization that is about to begin an agile evolution, I'll be honest - I was skeptical that our group would get much out of this training session; however, I was proven wrong after the first day. So much so that this class and its' content is now referenced in many of our other leadership meetings. Martin & Jim provided just the right amount of facilitation and guidance to help our group to open up and dig into topics that had been 'floating on the surface'. Our team knows we have a long road a head of us, but having the skills from the PAL-e class in our pockets makes the weight that we have to carry as leaders feel like less.

Enjoyed the PALe class very much!
Enjoyed the PALe class very much. The content is very relevant to the situation many current companies are in, and it gives take aways that we can go and use in practice. Martin as a trainer is a great faciliator and story teller, giving real practical examples from his experience. My fellow participants were great to work with when we did group activities, and though we did the course remotely the collaboration tools did allow us to experience it just as it would have been in an physical environment (or maybe even better).

Miroslav Petro
Great with place for improvement
The stuff we have learned about Scrum was amazing. I liked how the instructor has led the course.
But I didn't like how much we talked about the basics of software development like unit testing, measuring code coverage, etc. I would welcome more advanced content like how to manage big projects using trunk based branching strategy for example.
