Description of Presentation: 

New to Agile?  

Would you like to know what it is all about?

How is agile project management different from the way we've always done it?  What are the benefits of changing the way we manage projects?

We'll teach you some of the new terms and approaches, plus how to organize your first project and successfully execute your first Sprint.

Have a Scrum Certification? 

What's better than scrum certification?  Learning how to apply scrum in real world business.  Too many people return to work after becoming certified and cannot apply the concepts to their jobs.  That's why we developed the GSD Scrum Method, to help agile teams plan, execute and meet theirm commitments by applying scrum in the most efficient way possible.
