Very insightful training that changed my view on how Product Owner role should be approached

New to product ownership, great course
I am new to being a product owner and had been sent on the PSPO course as an introduction to the role. I was anxious about being so new to the role and being surrounded by people with much more experience and knowledge, worried I'd feel out of my depth. How wrong I was, Simon was fantastic, he broke down each topic in a way that made it easy to keep up and learn. I feel I have been able to take away a lot that can be used to make impactful changes to process in my team.

Simon Kneafsey's Professional Scrum Product Owner I course
I recently attended the Professional Scrum Product Owner I (PSPO I) two day training led by Simon Kneafsey. I was most impressed with the structure, content and pace of the course which covered a range of topics and techniques through instruction and practical exercises, demonstrating real-world applications. Simon shared his extensive knowledge and experience, answered questions and provided valuable resources. I would highly recommend Simon as a trainer.

Aug 23, 2023
Highly recommended course
It was a very helpful , interactive and interesting two day training program. Though it was a distant learning program, never during these hours, I was bored or any part of training felt redundant.
It was more like an interactive session and I am really impresses the way Simon conducted it.
Not only did I learnt (from Simon) valuable things about Product owner role but also how can a video session be so interesting .
Aug 22, 2023
Super insightful class
Super insightful class.
This is perhaps one of the best online classes I have done. The structure was rely good and never felt too tiered between each break.
The amount that was taught was very well put together in a 2 day time period.
I am a scrum master, but this course has definitely helped me gain confidence in what I am doing and there is so much knowledge here I would recommend this to anyone else.
Simon himself was really god at explaining Scrum & how it works in Product. As well as giving enough information to us about our questions. The break out rooms were great and the activities really helped think about how best to apply scrum in different scenarios.
I have already advised some of my PO's to take his Scrum PO class as I think the way Simon does his classes is 10/10
Aug 22, 2023
Great experience on the PSM level 1 course
I recently attended the Professional Scrum Master level 1 course with Simon Kneafsey and was very impressed with the level of interaction due to the course being ran virtually. It combined theory with practical examples which could be applied to your role as a Scrum Master. Simon demonstrated a vast array of knowledge and experience and was more than happy to answer any questions throughout the 2-day course. I recommend this course to anyone wanting to gain an insight into the Scrum framework.
Aug 21, 2023
I participated in the PSM1 course
I participated in the PSM1 course. It was well led and incredibly interesting, thus making it easy to learn. The class is well designed and have a limited number of attendees, encourages discussions and gives a great opportunity to learn from other professionals attending the course.
It really improved my understanding of the Scrum framework and prepared me to take on a new role in my team. I am looking to forward to learn even more!
Aug 21, 2023
A valuable and informative experience
A valuable and informative experience. The course was highly interactive, and dug deep into the various aspects of Scrum and the responsibilities of a Scrum Master. Simon is knowledgeable, an effective teacher, and able to provide many real world examples of Scrum in action.

Scum Master PSM Course review
I've just completed the Scum Master (PSM1) course led by Simon. This was extremely valuable and a great way to enhance my journey into using Scrum . Simon has a wealth of practical experience which he shares to demonstrate the many benefits and some of the pitfalls when introducing Agile and Scrum across a business. Whilst not a typical industry for Scrum adoption (capital equipment product development) Simon shows how Scrum can be applied to this and many other businesses. It was 2 days well spent and I'd highly recommend Simon and this course.

Professional Scrum Master Class - Simon Kneafsey
Professional Scrum Master Class with Simon Kneafsey was one of the best experiences in terms of Training that I already had.
All the Class was very interactive, intuitive, with clear information.
Simon explained everything very clear, direct in terms of what really we need to know. Also with lots of information to guides during the Class and also after.
Aug 18, 2023
Learning curve
It was a great experience to learn the Scrum Master course. The terms used in the Scrum Guides are explained patiently and in depth. The discussions are also a making things which I didn't pay attention.
Thank you for patiently explaining and answering all our questions with examples.
Aug 18, 2023
The course content was really…informative
The course content was really informative and easy to follow. Simon the trainer explained things very well and his knowledge really shone through. It was great that he associated stories to the practices, it really helps to absorb and remember the information better. Great course and would advice an anyone to take it.
Aug 18, 2023
Participating in Simon Kneafsey's Scrum…
Participating in Simon Kneafsey's Scrum training course was an enlightening journey. The content was masterfully presented, covering an extensive array of Scrum principles and practices. The instructors exhibited profound expertise and contagious enthusiasm, rendering intricate concepts easily graspable. The incorporation of interactive exercises and real-world instances breathed practicality into the learning process.
Nevertheless, I would like to propose an enhancement. Increasing the inclusion of comprehensive case studies and inviting participants to share their current or past challenges prior to the course's commencement would amplify the personalized dimension of the training. Discussing these challenges during the training sessions would contribute to a more tailored and impactful experience.
This course is an exemplary selection for individuals desiring to immerse themselves in the realm of Scrum and agile methodologies.

Great and useful course that I highly recommend
I just took my first steps in the world of Scrum and PSPO and I am delighted that I choose ScrumMaster.co.uk and Simon Kneafsey as my trainer.
The course was very well structured, and the pace was good for beginners and for professionals that have already been in the spot of a product owner.
I really appreciated the structured information provided and the opportunities for two-way communication, so no questions were unanswered at any point. Overall, a very positive experience. See you soon again Simon!

Professional Scrum Product Owner Course 1
I attended the PSPO1 course over two days with Simon and loved it. It was really well structured, fast paced but with plenty of rest breaks to keep you going. The course is interactive and you definitely get more out of it if you engage and interact with Simon and the other delegates. I have come away from the course having learnt lots and with some reassurance that I am working my way to be being an efficient Product Owner. Highly recommend.

It is a very good class to structure the knowledge and get the questions, that might be seating in your head after online research of SCRUM, answered.
Jul 28, 2023
Great course! Clear, interactive and useful
Simon explained everything clearly and concisely and talked us through all the key areas we needed to know in order to get a good understanding of Scrum and what is needed to pass the assessment. He was more than happy to answer any questions and was very helpful. I also found the breakout groups and discussion useful for keeping it interactive and fun. Simon pointed us in the direction of practice assessments and resources that have been very helpful in preparing for the exam so far, as has access to our Mural board we worked on during the course.
Jul 28, 2023
Informative and thought provoking course
I had an excellent time attending the PSPO course. Simon was an excellent and engaging speaker who helped and took the time to convey the understanding of Product Owners in Scrum, actively encouraging participation and learning. I would recommend for anyone interested in learning more about the PO role within scrum.
Jul 27, 2023
PSM1 training
I have attended PSM1 training - and this was one of the most insightful courses I have ever taken. Simon was able to start and navigate great discussions, explain complicated concepts and break them down to be relevant and relatable. We left the training inspired and ready to change our team's way of working for the better.

Online PSM1 with Simon Kneafsey
Just completed my 2-day PSM1 course and I am so glad I made the choice to go with Simon for this. As a Scrum Master myself I was expecting to re-learn the fundamentals, which is always useful, but I wasn't expecting to learn as much as I did on new aspects around the framework and the role! It was great to work through case-studies, and have to think about how to apply the theory in practical examples.
Simon's delivery of the course was perfect - so well thought out in terms of format and timing. All the language and visuals used were crystal clear. I will definitely be doing the PSMII and will re-book with him.
Jul 17, 2023
Excellent all round
The instructor, content and learning process were excellent. I would highly recommend this course.

Perfect for my needs
I found the course perfect for my needs, as I am looking to career pivot from marketing and commercial roles into Data Product Management. However, as I learn more, maybe this will tweak…
The course helped me understand what a Product Owner was and how it fitted into an organisation. I was also excited about how Scrum works, and how I can use it in my work life, but also personally.

Fantastic course and trainer
The 2 day virtual Professional Scrum Product Owner course with Simon Kneafsey was fantastic! Very interactive, professional and felt like an 'in person' course although it was virtual. Lots of opportunities to ask questions and clarify learning and interact with the trainer and course mates. Would recommend.
Jun 23, 2023
PSM course
Thank you for a very interesting course. It was conducted in a very interesting way. It allowed for a good understanding of the basics of how Scrum works. I have the impression that due to the enormity of the material, some topics have only been mentioned. Practical examples well illustrating the discussed issues. Which was very important to me. I also appreciate the opportunity to ask questions during the course, thanks to which it was possible to exchange experience with other course participants.

5* agility/scrum
I was looking for the Product Owner course on my own, while my company selected scrum.org's offer for us. I chose Professional Scrum Product Owner certification because of the emphasis on real life scenarios to underscore the theoretical material, as well as my business long term records.
Our instructor, Simon Kneafsey, was the embodiment of this. Excellent training material and presentational style. Course was online, but still very engaging. An agile coach who has walked the walk, his experience shone through.
May 11, 2023

I found the course to be well rounded on the topics that i needed help with, Simon was really great at explaining and providing relatable examples to help secure understanding. The breaks every hour were certainly well received to allow downtime for the brain!

May 10, 2023

May 10, 2023
very well structured and prepared teacher
Simon is an expert and this 2-days course is structured very well in my opinion: well balanced between learning the theory of the Scrum framework, and concrete examples about how to apply it in different scenarios. I benefited also from the discussion exercises when divided in small teams. I am more than happy to recommend this course .
May 9, 2023
Simon was an excellent teacher
Simon was an excellent teacher. I was brand new to SCRUM and he went at a pace I could really engage with so areas weren't 'skimmed over', nor did it drag. The scenarios explained were very helpful along with all the notes and follow up materials. Passed first time around :)

Top Teacher
I really enjoyed Simon's class - he was thoughtful, professional and I felt like I left the 2 days more enthusiastic then when I went in! I felt really prepared for the exam as well, which is a massive testament to him and how much he managed to teach us in a short space of time. I would highly recommend Simon to anyone who wants to learn more about Scrum.

Good course, supportive trainer
Being new to scrum the course was a lot to take in but i felt really supported by my trainer Simon. His style was friendly and informal and put you at ease straight away. He managed the course well, alternating between activities and discussion and the regular breaks helped me to maintain my focus.
Apr 21, 2023
Great Course
Great course! Simon is a very enthusiastic trainer and the course was interactive and well-paced, even for someone with little knowledge of Scrum. The structure of the course encourages a proper understanding of the content more than just learning of theory. There are some useful resources that are provided with the course and I feel well prepared for the formal assessment.
Apr 17, 2023
TheScrumMaster.co.uk - PSM1 course
A very well-crafted class, delivered with energy and enthusiasm.
It brings Scrum to life and clearly explains what Scrum IS and what it ISN’T.
As someone with a few months Scrum experience I learned a lot of new information about the Scrum framework and how my role as a scrum master fits into that framework. As a result of this course I feel a lot more confident in my role and look forward to applying this knowledge to my day to day activities.
Apr 17, 2023

Great interactive class with high involvement
Simon leads the PSM1 class with great interactivity, combining break out sessions with personal experience examples. He provides good insights on Scrum as a method, although I would like to get more practical examples of acting in Scrum master role as team facilitator to ensure the accountability and mindset.
Apr 15, 2023
A great course
Simon is a great teacher. He is clear, gives great examples which makes everything click into place, and the classes are set out perfectly, with plenty of exercises to get you thinking on what you have just learnt, and a great group feeling as everyone is there to learn the same thing. No question is unanswered, regardless if you think it silly or not, and he will explain it to you with an experience of his own, so you can relate it to what you need to know.
Great course, great Teacher
Apr 14, 2023
Great trainer
I was recommended to select Simon Kneafsey for my PSM 1 training and I am really glad that I did.

Highly recommend.
Apr 14, 2023
Great course lead by Simon in detail to give an insight of Scrum world
Simon went through all the scrum methodologies in great detail with real life industry examples which helped me visualize how i can apply these methodologies in my role. The role of scrum Master becomes clearer as the course takes its course on day 2. We worked through scenarios at each stage which helped to embed the role of scrum master. I would highly recommend Simon if there is anyone out there wanting to do a Scrum course
Apr 14, 2023
Passionate teacher makes the difference!

Highly Recommend
Simon delivered the course really well. The structure over the two days really helped me get the most out of the course. I was concerned about how a virtual course would work but Simon broke this down into hour long sessions with lots of interaction/breakout rooms followed by a break before the next session started. This really help keep everyone energised and engaged.

PSM - Top Insightful training!
Simon is a very knowledgeable trainer, he masters Scrum Master theory and creates an open discussions.

Not only that, the training is structured to be very interactive by organizing attendees in groups and doing practice/activities which are very insightful to complement framework understanding. Through a friendly environment you will learn new stuffs. It does not matter what your job is, either you perform as a Scrum Master or simply have growth mindset and tons of motivation, join it!.

I enjoyed the training and would recommend Simon to anyone interested in learning more about being a Product owner as well as scrum in general. The face to face training was great and the food supplied was great.
The only downside for me was developing a stiff neck due to the angle of the chairs to the screen and no tables

Sep 12, 2023
New to product ownership, great course
I am new to being a product owner and had been sent on the PSPO course as an introduction to the role. I was anxious about being so new to the role and being surrounded by people with much more experience and knowledge, worried I'd feel out of my depth. How wrong I was, Simon was fantastic, he broke down each topic in a way that made it easy to keep up and learn. I feel I have been able to take away a lot that can be used to make impactful changes to process in my team.

Simon Kneafsey's Professional Scrum Product Owner I course
I recently attended the Professional Scrum Product Owner I (PSPO I) two day training led by Simon Kneafsey. I was most impressed with the structure, content and pace of the course which covered a range of topics and techniques through instruction and practical exercises, demonstrating real-world applications. Simon shared his extensive knowledge and experience, answered questions and provided valuable resources. I would highly recommend Simon as a trainer.

Highly recommended course
It was a very helpful , interactive and interesting two day training program. Though it was a distant learning program, never during these hours, I was bored or any part of training felt redundant.
It was more like an interactive session and I am really impresses the way Simon conducted it.
Not only did I learnt (from Simon) valuable things about Product owner role but also how can a video session be so interesting .

Super insightful class
Super insightful class.
This is perhaps one of the best online classes I have done. The structure was rely good and never felt too tiered between each break.
The amount that was taught was very well put together in a 2 day time period.
I am a scrum master, but this course has definitely helped me gain confidence in what I am doing and there is so much knowledge here I would recommend this to anyone else.
Simon himself was really god at explaining Scrum & how it works in Product. As well as giving enough information to us about our questions. The break out rooms were great and the activities really helped think about how best to apply scrum in different scenarios.
I have already advised some of my PO's to take his Scrum PO class as I think the way Simon does his classes is 10/10

Great experience on the PSM level 1 course
I recently attended the Professional Scrum Master level 1 course with Simon Kneafsey and was very impressed with the level of interaction due to the course being ran virtually. It combined theory with practical examples which could be applied to your role as a Scrum Master. Simon demonstrated a vast array of knowledge and experience and was more than happy to answer any questions throughout the 2-day course. I recommend this course to anyone wanting to gain an insight into the Scrum framework.
Aug 21, 2023
I participated in the PSM1 course
I participated in the PSM1 course. It was well led and incredibly interesting, thus making it easy to learn. The class is well designed and have a limited number of attendees, encourages discussions and gives a great opportunity to learn from other professionals attending the course.
It really improved my understanding of the Scrum framework and prepared me to take on a new role in my team. I am looking to forward to learn even more!
Aug 21, 2023
A valuable and informative experience
A valuable and informative experience. The course was highly interactive, and dug deep into the various aspects of Scrum and the responsibilities of a Scrum Master. Simon is knowledgeable, an effective teacher, and able to provide many real world examples of Scrum in action.

Scum Master PSM Course review
I've just completed the Scum Master (PSM1) course led by Simon. This was extremely valuable and a great way to enhance my journey into using Scrum . Simon has a wealth of practical experience which he shares to demonstrate the many benefits and some of the pitfalls when introducing Agile and Scrum across a business. Whilst not a typical industry for Scrum adoption (capital equipment product development) Simon shows how Scrum can be applied to this and many other businesses. It was 2 days well spent and I'd highly recommend Simon and this course.

Professional Scrum Master Class - Simon Kneafsey
Professional Scrum Master Class with Simon Kneafsey was one of the best experiences in terms of Training that I already had.
All the Class was very interactive, intuitive, with clear information.
Simon explained everything very clear, direct in terms of what really we need to know. Also with lots of information to guides during the Class and also after.
Aug 18, 2023
Learning curve
It was a great experience to learn the Scrum Master course. The terms used in the Scrum Guides are explained patiently and in depth. The discussions are also a making things which I didn't pay attention.
Thank you for patiently explaining and answering all our questions with examples.
Aug 18, 2023
The course content was really…informative
The course content was really informative and easy to follow. Simon the trainer explained things very well and his knowledge really shone through. It was great that he associated stories to the practices, it really helps to absorb and remember the information better. Great course and would advice an anyone to take it.

Participating in Simon Kneafsey's Scrum…
Participating in Simon Kneafsey's Scrum training course was an enlightening journey. The content was masterfully presented, covering an extensive array of Scrum principles and practices. The instructors exhibited profound expertise and contagious enthusiasm, rendering intricate concepts easily graspable. The incorporation of interactive exercises and real-world instances breathed practicality into the learning process.
Nevertheless, I would like to propose an enhancement. Increasing the inclusion of comprehensive case studies and inviting participants to share their current or past challenges prior to the course's commencement would amplify the personalized dimension of the training. Discussing these challenges during the training sessions would contribute to a more tailored and impactful experience.
This course is an exemplary selection for individuals desiring to immerse themselves in the realm of Scrum and agile methodologies.

Great and useful course that I highly recommend
I just took my first steps in the world of Scrum and PSPO and I am delighted that I choose ScrumMaster.co.uk and Simon Kneafsey as my trainer.
The course was very well structured, and the pace was good for beginners and for professionals that have already been in the spot of a product owner.
I really appreciated the structured information provided and the opportunities for two-way communication, so no questions were unanswered at any point. Overall, a very positive experience. See you soon again Simon!

Excellent, well structured, well delivered course. The two days were really valuable to help me understand the course content and prepare for the certification examination.

Professional Scrum Product Owner Course 1
I attended the PSPO1 course over two days with Simon and loved it. It was really well structured, fast paced but with plenty of rest breaks to keep you going. The course is interactive and you definitely get more out of it if you engage and interact with Simon and the other delegates. I have come away from the course having learnt lots and with some reassurance that I am working my way to be being an efficient Product Owner. Highly recommend.

It is a very good class to structure the knowledge and get the questions, that might be seating in your head after online research of SCRUM, answered.
Jul 28, 2023
Great course! Clear, interactive and useful
Simon explained everything clearly and concisely and talked us through all the key areas we needed to know in order to get a good understanding of Scrum and what is needed to pass the assessment. He was more than happy to answer any questions and was very helpful. I also found the breakout groups and discussion useful for keeping it interactive and fun. Simon pointed us in the direction of practice assessments and resources that have been very helpful in preparing for the exam so far, as has access to our Mural board we worked on during the course.
Jul 28, 2023
Informative and thought provoking course
I had an excellent time attending the PSPO course. Simon was an excellent and engaging speaker who helped and took the time to convey the understanding of Product Owners in Scrum, actively encouraging participation and learning. I would recommend for anyone interested in learning more about the PO role within scrum.
Jul 27, 2023
PSM1 training
I have attended PSM1 training - and this was one of the most insightful courses I have ever taken. Simon was able to start and navigate great discussions, explain complicated concepts and break them down to be relevant and relatable. We left the training inspired and ready to change our team's way of working for the better.
Jul 26, 2023

Online PSM1 with Simon Kneafsey
Just completed my 2-day PSM1 course and I am so glad I made the choice to go with Simon for this. As a Scrum Master myself I was expecting to re-learn the fundamentals, which is always useful, but I wasn't expecting to learn as much as I did on new aspects around the framework and the role! It was great to work through case-studies, and have to think about how to apply the theory in practical examples.
Simon's delivery of the course was perfect - so well thought out in terms of format and timing. All the language and visuals used were crystal clear. I will definitely be doing the PSMII and will re-book with him.
Jul 17, 2023
Excellent all round
The instructor, content and learning process were excellent. I would highly recommend this course.

Perfect for my needs
I found the course perfect for my needs, as I am looking to career pivot from marketing and commercial roles into Data Product Management. However, as I learn more, maybe this will tweak…
The course helped me understand what a Product Owner was and how it fitted into an organisation. I was also excited about how Scrum works, and how I can use it in my work life, but also personally.

Fantastic course and trainer
The 2 day virtual Professional Scrum Product Owner course with Simon Kneafsey was fantastic! Very interactive, professional and felt like an 'in person' course although it was virtual. Lots of opportunities to ask questions and clarify learning and interact with the trainer and course mates. Would recommend.
Jun 23, 2023
PSM course
Thank you for a very interesting course. It was conducted in a very interesting way. It allowed for a good understanding of the basics of how Scrum works. I have the impression that due to the enormity of the material, some topics have only been mentioned. Practical examples well illustrating the discussed issues. Which was very important to me. I also appreciate the opportunity to ask questions during the course, thanks to which it was possible to exchange experience with other course participants.

5* agility/scrum
I was looking for the Product Owner course on my own, while my company selected scrum.org's offer for us. I chose Professional Scrum Product Owner certification because of the emphasis on real life scenarios to underscore the theoretical material, as well as my business long term records.
Our instructor, Simon Kneafsey, was the embodiment of this. Excellent training material and presentational style. Course was online, but still very engaging. An agile coach who has walked the walk, his experience shone through.

I found the course to be well rounded on the topics that i needed help with, Simon was really great at explaining and providing relatable examples to help secure understanding. The breaks every hour were certainly well received to allow downtime for the brain!

May 10, 2023

very well structured and prepared teacher
Simon is an expert and this 2-days course is structured very well in my opinion: well balanced between learning the theory of the Scrum framework, and concrete examples about how to apply it in different scenarios. I benefited also from the discussion exercises when divided in small teams. I am more than happy to recommend this course .
May 9, 2023
Simon was an excellent teacher
Simon was an excellent teacher. I was brand new to SCRUM and he went at a pace I could really engage with so areas weren't 'skimmed over', nor did it drag. The scenarios explained were very helpful along with all the notes and follow up materials. Passed first time around :)

Top Teacher
I really enjoyed Simon's class - he was thoughtful, professional and I felt like I left the 2 days more enthusiastic then when I went in! I felt really prepared for the exam as well, which is a massive testament to him and how much he managed to teach us in a short space of time. I would highly recommend Simon to anyone who wants to learn more about Scrum.

Good course, supportive trainer
Being new to scrum the course was a lot to take in but i felt really supported by my trainer Simon. His style was friendly and informal and put you at ease straight away. He managed the course well, alternating between activities and discussion and the regular breaks helped me to maintain my focus.
Apr 21, 2023
Great Course
Great course! Simon is a very enthusiastic trainer and the course was interactive and well-paced, even for someone with little knowledge of Scrum. The structure of the course encourages a proper understanding of the content more than just learning of theory. There are some useful resources that are provided with the course and I feel well prepared for the formal assessment.

TheScrumMaster.co.uk - PSM1 course
A very well-crafted class, delivered with energy and enthusiasm.
It brings Scrum to life and clearly explains what Scrum IS and what it ISN’T.
As someone with a few months Scrum experience I learned a lot of new information about the Scrum framework and how my role as a scrum master fits into that framework. As a result of this course I feel a lot more confident in my role and look forward to applying this knowledge to my day to day activities.
Apr 17, 2023

Great interactive class with high involvement
Simon leads the PSM1 class with great interactivity, combining break out sessions with personal experience examples. He provides good insights on Scrum as a method, although I would like to get more practical examples of acting in Scrum master role as team facilitator to ensure the accountability and mindset.
Apr 15, 2023
A great course
Simon is a great teacher. He is clear, gives great examples which makes everything click into place, and the classes are set out perfectly, with plenty of exercises to get you thinking on what you have just learnt, and a great group feeling as everyone is there to learn the same thing. No question is unanswered, regardless if you think it silly or not, and he will explain it to you with an experience of his own, so you can relate it to what you need to know.
Great course, great Teacher
Apr 14, 2023
Great trainer
I was recommended to select Simon Kneafsey for my PSM 1 training and I am really glad that I did.

Highly recommend.
Apr 14, 2023
Great course lead by Simon in detail to give an insight of Scrum world
Simon went through all the scrum methodologies in great detail with real life industry examples which helped me visualize how i can apply these methodologies in my role. The role of scrum Master becomes clearer as the course takes its course on day 2. We worked through scenarios at each stage which helped to embed the role of scrum master. I would highly recommend Simon if there is anyone out there wanting to do a Scrum course
Apr 14, 2023

Simon delivered the course really well. The structure over the two days really helped me get the most out of the course. I was concerned about how a virtual course would work but Simon broke this down into hour long sessions with lots of interaction/breakout rooms followed by a break before the next session started. This really help keep everyone energised and engaged.

PSM - Top Insightful training!
Simon is a very knowledgeable trainer, he masters Scrum Master theory and creates an open discussions. He has the ability to breakdown complexity and showing with clear examples what the SM framework is about. Not only that, the training is structured to be very interactive by organizing attendees in groups and doing practice/activities which are very insightful to complement framework understanding. Through a friendly environment you will learn new stuffs. It does not matter what your job is, either you perform as a Scrum Master or simply have growth mindset and tons of motivation, join it!.

I enjoyed the training and would recommend Simon to anyone interested in learning more about being a Product owner as well as scrum in general. The face to face training was great and the food supplied was great.
The only downside for me was developing a stiff neck due to the angle of the chairs to the screen and no tables
