Chris Mann Certified Scrum Professional® and Agile Coach

Scrum is the most popular framework for agile software development worldwide. I have experience in the implementation of the Scrum framework and in training the software team, the scrum master and the product owner since 2009. Thorough preparation the implementation with a little theory and, above all, a lot of practice for those involved is mandatory. Inexperienced teams in particular run the risk of developing their own Scrum too early, without being able to assess the consequences. Scrum cannot come from a book or can be learned in a video. As an external Scrum Master, I help the Scrum teams run through the first sprints or I'm available to the customer as an embedded scrum master for a longer period of time. I always strive to share a lot of my knowledge and experience with the customer teams.

The transitions from the Scrum framework to project management are fluid. Whenever possible, I recommend to distance yourself from "classic" project management and to switch to Agile PM, as it is the ideal complement for agile development. Agile PM lifts the relationship between manufacturer/customer and manufacturer/supplier to a partnership level. Regular feedback, short development cycles and tight connections between all those involved are essential for this.
