Agile Scrum and how NOT to do it

There are many ways companies routinely misuse Agile Scrum. In fact, some misuses are so common they even got their own nicknames!

This course will shed some light on various nicknames and terms used by the Agile community. You will learn about Fragile Agile, TrAgile, WaterScrum, ScrummerFall, WaterScrumFall, Cargo Cult, Zombie Scrum, Dark Scrum and more.

Sometimes controversial, sometimes insightful, I will give you information (as well as my own biased opinions) on the most common mistakes and failures, discuss what they mean in practice, and how to avoid them in your own work.

The course is meant in a lighthearted way, so please do not get upset if you recognise any of the faulty behaviours or practices in yourself or your team. The idea behind inventing those names is not to put labels on or criticise other people's work but rather to raise awareness of the common issues experienced by Agile teams and help them overcome those issues moving towards a more successful and sustained adoption of Agile.
