Training and learning don’t have to be a burden. Some suggest that “to learn” is our most basic human need. We strive to develop courses so you have fun learning: flinging, spinning and conducting acts of physical and mental creativity. Our courses are grouped by the following categories:
An effective Product Owner must have a vision for the product and effectively communicate it.

In the years I’ve been transforming organizations, a few requests get me worked up like a two-year old who skipped a nap.

This ScrumMaster schedules, plans and runs the meetings, including the Daily Scrum. His job is to make sure all the […]
