Mastering Professional Scrum (Addison-Wesley Professional)
Wednesday, 15 January 2020

This book aims to show how to deliver increased value by using Scrum more effectively. Scrum practitioners Stephanie Ockerman and Simon Reindl draw on years of Scrum training and coaching to help you return to first principles and apply Scrum with the professionalism required to achieve its transformative potential. They help you focus on proven Scrum approaches for improving quality, getting and using fast feedback, and becoming more adaptable, instead of “going through the motions” and settling for only modest improvements.
