Richard Ross

Great explanation. Sense for details. Great real-life examples.

Great class full of practical examples, I appreciated that the teacher included a lot of personal experiences.

Coach was great and friendly

Very well led interactive class that helped me align my ideas/plans as a line manager with the Scrum Framework. I appreciate the way Richard presented the framework, we could clearly see it was coming from having a vast experience rather than being theoretical.

Excellent class. Richard broke the modules down into useful and meaningful sections, and challenged me to alter my way of thinking and managing a team. It is so enlightening to think in terms of Scrum and allowing a team to self-managing and pushing the decision making back onto the team. Thoroughly enjoyable 2 day course and would highly recommend Richards classes!

Richard was great! He delivered the course with enthusiasm and knowledge. It's difficult to do a course virtually and keep everyone engaged for the duration but Richard managed to maintain engagement and most importantly, equipped me with the tools and knowledge needed to feel confident about passing the PSM. I look forward to using what I've learnt in my work and potentially pursue further training in the future.

I thought Richard was really engaging across the 2 day course. We covered all the Scrum content at a sensible pace, with regular short breaks and input from the students. I'd recommend his lessons if you are new to Scrum.

Professional Scrum Master training lead by Riki was a great experience. His friendly but professional approach and deep expertise kept us engaged, and he made complex concepts easy to grasp. The practical case studies were especially helpful, showing us how to apply Scrum in real-life scenarios. The training was fun and memorable, leaving me confident in my new skills. I highly recommend this training!

Great lector , good vibes. For future maybe more experience from post-covid times. At the end however i wanna lector like Riki on every training.

I really enjoyed my time in the course! I thought it was going to lean on a more academic side, but no! There was plenty of interaction, plenty of sharing examples, plenty of discussion! Definitely recommend as a starting point for your Scrum Master journey!

Great tutor!

The course was very beneficial and gave me great insight into Scrum. Although I wasn't initially sure about the online format (my original course was to be on site), Rikki has proven himself to be a master of the online craft. The course was engaging, very interactive and I was engaged comparably to the onsite course. Rikki has a wide range of experience and complements his explanations with many real-life illustrations (including examples), which is very helpful. Although I knew Scrum before, the course brought a lot of new findings to me. I definitely recommend it.

Richard was and is a true professional in his field. I really loved the way he held the course. I'm looking forward to our next encounters. Thank you

Richard really knows the subject matter well and makes the learning environment relaxed and fun. He used a nice range of visual and interactive tools for us to have hands on practice of implementing Kanban for scrum teams. It was an enjoyable course and I can recommend Richard as the trainer!

Great course, with great trainer.

Our tutor had tons of first hand working experience with scrum, so every theory bit was accompanied with interesting and helpful practical trivia and examples, which made the sessions really fast flowing and imformative. Highly recommended.

Honestly one of the trainings which are really useful and pushing me further.

I want to express my sincere thanks for the fantastic knowledge sharing during the course. Rishard's classes, insights, and guidance played a crucial role in helping me pass the test on my first attempt. I appreciate the dedication and expertise that made the learning experience truly effective. Highly recommended!

Richard is an excellent teacher and the whole training served its purpose. There was no time to be bored. Theory, examples, experience, fun. Highly recommended!!

the instructor, Richard, was very personable and provided realistic examples of how Scrum can be implemented throughout the course

Absolutely phenomenal class! Richard was an amazing teacher who taught not only from theory but also from his own learned experiences. He highly encouraged useful discussions and encouraged us to ask challenging questions whenever we were unsure.

Thank for the 2 days of learning SCRUM

It was really great, not a moment I got bored!

Trainer (Richard) with optimistic and dynamic attitude. No space for rest, not annoying. Clear context. Splitting into working groups by Zoom. Sharing the info via Mural.

There wasn’t a dull moment in the two-days training I’ve had with Richard. He managed to keep my attention throughout the whole training, leading the class through the topic with humour and positive energy, while staying professional and focused. Many real-life examples were a bonus to help me understand the topic better. The tasks that Richard used in his class were challenging and thought-provoking and kept me on my toes throughout the training. I highly recommend Richard’s class, it was super interesting, enjoyable and I believe that knowledge I’ve gained is applicable to my current position. So once again: thank you!

Richard Ross is an excellent trainer. He made the course interactive and easy to learn! He gave many relevant examples from his experience that made the Scrum master course more real!

Richard Ross was a brilliant host and had the ability to talk for two days straight about a complex topic and make it engaging, really enjoyed his class and would recommend

Very insightful course with a number of key subjects covered over the two days.

Trainer's Professionalism

One of the best Classes I have attended. Like the way, they teach us. I really enjoyed it.

Remote Professional Scrum Master Training led by Richard Ross was well structured, full of information and practical examples and fun! It helped me understand better what's behind Agile framework. I've enjoyed work in Mural white board very much as well as the practical break-out sessions. Even though it was sometimes unclear, why we were skipping some of the presentation slides and I think some of the task descriptions for practical break-out sessions were somewhat blurry/fuzzy, it does not affect the overall positive impression.

The class was interactive, helping me understand the Scrum Master role thoroughly. The instructor was very knowledgeable with lots of experience in the field and created a collaborative environment with best practices. The course materials were comprehensive, and the facilitation was top-notch. Highly recommended!

Interesting topic, great trainer who shared lots of real life experiences that makes class interesting and funny

Richard is a great trainer with lot of practical experience from his previous jobs (I really like all real examples which he shared with us). I appreaciate his hints about exams which were very helpful. My course was virtual but it went very quickly and I like Richard gave us small breaks regularly. Now I passed my PSM exam on my first attempt!

I like the training and the way Richard did it. It was rich on information and fun.

It was really great training, full of examples - very well organized, funny, not boring at all - I liked it.

Interactive and hands-on approach: benefiting from interactive sessions and practical exercises. Engaging in group discussions, simulations, and hands-on activities allowing us - participants to apply SCRUM concepts in a practical context, fostering better understanding and retention of the material. Knowledgeable and experienced trainer. Collaborative learning environment.

Great PSM I training organised by Richard Ross with numerous interesting and interactive case studies and activities to better imagine Scrum in day-to-day life. The training was really knowledgeable, well-managed and organised. Richard was always willing to answer any questions which yielded some interesting discussions among colleagues.

Good pace of course and enjoyable experience. Richard also gave great examples.

Great introduction to Scrum. In addition to the theory, the training also provided an opportunity to practically test the acquired knowledge on specific cases. The trainer also showed the application of Scrum rules on his practical experience from the implemented projects.

The Professional Scrum Master class provided by Richard Ross was very good. I really like his active intervention and providing a lot of his real experiences. For each section he had many stories. The class was very interactive and not just the sharing the theory.

An added bonus was the trainer's experience with real teams which he was able to share with us along the different subject discussed.

We had a 2 days long training with Richard and even though the topic was almost new to me and there was a lot of new information Richard explained everything well and he provided a tremendous amount of real life examples, which helped me to better uderstand the topic. Some of the exercises used throughout the training were sometimes ambiguous and there wasn´t only most correct answer, however I assume this was an intention. I would like to thank Richard for guiding us in an easy and witty way and for providing us with a huge list of tips for further reading and studies. Thanks to him, I have passed the assessment!

The training for Professional Scrum I has met my expectations. I have learnt the fundamentals of professional scrum and how to apply the principals in practice. The training was very well managed and organized, interactive and informative. Our trainee was a friendly, straight forward and a knowledgeable person linking the theory with many practical cases. It was worth time spent and i would recommend this session to anyone interested in knowing more about professional scrum.

Great teacher and great course with lots of learning aspects

The PSM I course helped me understand the basics of Scrum and what the agile is about. I was happy about the real examples and tips. Richard made lessons funny and were engaging all team members actively to make it all for us clear. Thank you!

Within trainings, I always appreciate when theory meets practice. Richard Ross presented many examples from his own experience and we went through several practical exercises where we had the opportunity to verify our assumptions. In the end, we received a number of tips and materials for the study, which helped to create a good basis for the certification itself.

The PSM I course led by Richard Ross delivered great value for my career development. He explained the basics of Scrum & Agile in simple and understandable way, using enough user cases. I do appreciate all the tricks & tricks provided. Richard is an amazing coach with lots of experience - that was visible in the way he was able to engage the whole group, create active collaboration and lively discussions. Also, not forgetting to appreciate all the fun aspects he brought into the course! I had no issues with passing the PSM I exam after the course, that on it's own is an evidence of how good the preparation was. I am boosted with motivation to expand my Scrum knowledge. Thank you!

I had the chance to do the PSM 1 training with Richard Ross and it formed a great foundation for my knowledge about SCRUM. Richard has a great experience with agile and can provide a lot of real life examples of how to create value with SCRUM and how to go beyond just ticking boxes on the path of becoming agile. The course is tailored for Scrum Masters which was not the case in my class, so first day felt a bit overwhelming. But Richard quickly adapted to our experience and needs and next 2 days were exactly what we needed. I fully recommend his course and if you want to have it and you are not already a Scrum Master, just align with him upfront so you can get the most out of it.

Everyone can read just a mere theory from book or guide, but this training led by Richard Ross was not only about theory, but about practical situations, too. Once the necessary intro theory was done, it was a nice mixture of theoretical principles and practical experience and knowledge/experience sharing. Richard did a great job!

Nich was an excellent teacher and the class was really well structured and delivered. Would definitely recommend
