Efficient and well done
The PAL-E course by Martin was a two day course of intensive training, a lot of work in small groups, always bringing everything together afterwards. (1-2-4-all)
Martin obviously had (and shared) a lot of real life experience and tried to answer all questions. After the two days I felt well-prepared for the certification test. Thanks again!

Very informative, interactive and fun Scrum Product Owner Training
The Scrum Product Owner training was well thought out and very informative. Through the many practical & interactive parts as well as many examples, the content was presented very clearly. Dr Martin is a very experienced trainer, who not only convinces with his theoretical Scrum/Agile knowledge, but can also convey the content very authentically through his extensive practical experience. I would definitely recommend this training to others.

Fun and interactive PSM I class
I can only recommend doing classes with Dr. Martin Mandischer. He is a fantastic and knowledgeable teacher!
His PSM I course was packed full with vital information about the theory of SCRUM, the assessment and real life applications. And still, he managed to keep it fun and light-hearted.
I especially liked, that he designed the class to be interactive, rather than being a "classic class/lecture".

Productive and enjoyable
Martin Mandischer was a very good coach. The working atmosphere was very pleasant, at eye level. He always managed to keep me on track and asked good questions that led to intensive discussions.
I have the impression that Martin responded to the prior knowledge of his participants - and I was pleased that we didn't just talk about Scrum basics, but went into depth about the actual work and responsibility of a PO.

Scrum Master Kurs der zum nachdenken anregt.
Hallo zusammen,
als Scrum Master der schon ein paar Projekte hinter sich hat und sich entschied endlich eine Zertifizierung zu machen habe ich von diesem Kurs sehr profititiert. Viele neue Denkweisen und Blickwinkel wurden mir aufgezeigt.
Dieser Kurs geht nicht einfach MC Aufgaben durch und erklärt diese. Es wird Scrum selbst und die Rolle des Scrum Masters erklärt.
Während der Prüfung war ich verblüfft wie viele Fragen des Zertifikats aus reinem Kontext (gelernt durch den Kurs) beantwortet werden konnten.
Ein Punkt der für viele wahrscheinlich nicht so wichtig ist, aber für mich ein eye-opener war/ist, sind die Buchvorschläge die gemacht wurden.
Ich war nach dem Kurs mir meiner Rolle als Scrum Master viel klarer und konnte mal abgesehen von dem Bestehen der Prüfung die neu gelernten Methoden und das Wissen direkt im Job anwenden.

About Dr. Martin
Nach meinem Studium und der Promotion in der Informatik habe ich viele Jahre als Berater und Coach in großen Projekten gearbeitet.
Ich bin Professional Scrum Trainer, Project Management Professional (PMP®), zertifizierter LeSS practitioner and IREB® Certified Professional for Requirements Engineering und vor allem Praktiker mit vielen Jahren Hands-On Erfahrung auf allen Unternehmensebenen.
Mein Wissen und meine Erfahrung gebe ich in meinen praxisorientierten und interaktiven Kursen weiter. Bei Trustpilot werden meine Kurse ausschließlich mit 5 Sternen bewertet.
Die ersten Berührungen mit der Informatik hatte ich 1980, als ich mit meinem Mathematiklehrer kleine Programme für Unternehmen in der Region schrieb: eine einfache Textverarbeitung, Software für Plotter und diverse kleine Spiele. Damals programmierten wir in Basic, Pascal und Assembler auf dem Apple II. Dieser läuft noch heute und meine Kinder sind immer wieder vom Retro-Computing begeistert.
Meine ersten „agilen“ Projekterfahrungen machte ich Mitte der 80er. Ich unterbrach mein Studium, um statt dröger Vorlesungen die echte Arbeitswelt kennenzulernen. Wir waren zu zweit und entwickelten eine Software für den Einkauf einer großen Universitätsklinik. Wir saßen direkt bei unserem „Kunden“ und die erste Frage war: „Was braucht ihr am dringendsten?“. Das haben wir zügig geliefert und die Frage zwei Jahre lang wiederholt. Abgelöst wurde unsere Software 20 Jahre später durch ein SAP-System.
Im Studium und während der Promotion in den 90ern entwickelte ich KI-Systeme, Neuronale Netze (Deep-Learning) und Evolutionäre Algorithmen in Prolog, Lisp und C auf Unix-Workstations und Parallelrechnern. Im Rahmen eines Sonderforschungsbereiches lösten wir damit komplexe wissenschaftliche Probleme.
Nach meiner Promotion leitete ich ab Anfang 2000 große internationale Projekte (China, Indien, Deutschland) mit z.T. mehr als 30 Personen. Wir setzten früh auf agile Techniken wie Continuous Integration, pair-programming, automatisiertes Testen sowie kurze Iterationen mit enger Kundeneinbindung.
Im Jahr 2004 hat mich dann der Vortrag eines Mitarbeiters mit dem Scrum-Virus infiziert. Wenige Tage nach meiner Scrum Master Zertifizierung habe ich Scrum in unserem größten und komplexesten Kundenprojekt eingeführt. Wir haben viele Fehler gemacht und noch mehr gelernt.
In den letzten 15 Jahren habe ich Agilität in vielen kleinen und großen Unternehmen erfolgreich eingeführt.
Die Ausbildung zum Professional Scrum Trainer habe ich bei Ken Schwaber, dem Mitbegründer von Scrum, gemacht.
Mein aktueller Schwerpunkt liegt in der Begleitung von Führungskräften in Transitionen. Zusammen mit Vorständen, Geschäftsführern und anderen Führungskräften helfe ich Strukturen und das Mindset für echte Businessagilität zu schaffen, Abteilungs- oder Wissenssilos durch Kooperation zu ersetzten und den Wandel zu gestalten.
Mit dabei habe ich einen umfangreichen Methodenkoffer mit Skalierungsframeworks wie Nexus, LeSS, SaFe, Kanban für Teams, Flight-Level Portfolio-Management sowie Moderations- und Lernformate wie z.B. Liberating Structures für kleine und große Gruppen, Projektmangementwerkzeuge wie Risikoanalyse, Busines-Case Rechnung oder Stakeholdermanagement.
Als erfahrene Führungskraft, Berater, Coach und Trainer mit fundiertem IT-Wissen und einem Blick für betriebswirtschaftliche Zusammenhänge und systemischem Denken helfe ich ihnen Scrum erfolgreich in ihre Organsisation zu bringen.
Fast 100% empfehlen ihren Kollegen meine Schulungen.
