    About this ebook

    Being a fresh Scrum Master, Agile Coach, Product Owner or a Business Analyst can be most daunting when it comes to scheduling and facilitating your first few Agile Ceremonies, especially if you aren't that familiar with the company culture, Agile team environment, and all the involved personalities just yet.

    This book offers you every detail that you need to know to become more confident in your fresh role of an Agile champion. Your people would inevitably look to you for guidance, and expect you to display a certain level of confidence before they can properly follow you, and pay attention to whatever the new process you'd be trying to teach them.

    Among other things, after reading this book you will:

    1 - Understand the importance of a Backlog Refinement session to the overall health of your typical Scrum process, and know how to facilitate two of the main types of Refinements currently practiced on the Agile job market;

    2 - Know how to run an effective Sprint Planning with your team, not skipping any detail that a fresh Scrum Master wouldn't know about;

    3 - Be aware of the methods to keep your Daily Scrum on-point, ensuring that everyone is involved and the session actually serves its intended purpose;

    4 - Be able to explain the importance of Sprint Reviews and learn about the right process to involve Business representatives;

    5 - Learn how to facilitate the two predominant types of Retrospectives - for the team and the Program levels;

    6 - Add a few Agile Energizers and Ice-Breaker games to your Agile champion toolbox, as the methods you could utilize to make sure your workshop attendees remain switched on and alert the whole time.

    While this book was written for those of you who already landed an Agile job of sorts, seeking to improve your knowledge of the ceremonies you'd have to facilitate one way or another, you might not be there just yet and still looking to improve your CV and self-presentation to get hired as a fresh agilist. In that case, I'd be happy to recommend my other book to you - ''Get Hired As Scrum Master' - that will be best suited for your needs, educating you in the areas of the Agile job market, recruitment process, and the variety of related topics.
