We did an ton of interaction 
and the class took the training to the next level. At the right is a break down of the teams plan that they ran for 2 days.
The course ended with lots of energy. As one person commented “I had fun and learned a lot”.

Scrum Workshop for Busy Teams – Effective Agile Development
The Scrum Workshop for Busy Teams Workshop is a jumpstart for teams or individuals in Scrum and Agile software development.
The main exercise is a team project where the teams work together to create at game to teach Scrum. This team developed a board game similar to “Candy Land” called Scrumopoly.
This course was the equivlent of a 2-day coruse delivered in four evenings. The goal was to help teams wanting to learn about scrum without impacting their schedule. Two guys actually flew up from California to Seattle to take this course. They were able to attend meetings by phone in the day and do the workshop in the evenings.
All of the students in this course had a strong background in the waterfall process on large teams. We had great discussions about how to move an orginization to be more agile. The student’s concsnsus was that the role of Product Owner is critical. I agree 100%. Without a strong and effective Product Owner to create the vision and separate the required from the incidental, teams will build the wrong thing or bild the most important thing too late.
