Scrum Challenge Questions

Time boxing is a the closest thing in agile or scrum that we have to something that is clearly a best practice.
I took your ScrumMaster course last May. What, if anything, do I need to do to keep my SCRUM Master certification active?
Should the notes a ScrumMaster take during the retrospective meeting be publically posted for interested folks to read?
What is the basic building block in applied scrum?
Question on quality forces
We often find ourselves lost in the desirements trying to find the real requirements for our system. Those things which seem required often end up being only desired.
There are a number of things you should do before you can even begin planning. The most important thing you can do is make sure that your Product Owner is prepared,
After a Story is committed to, the Team (with the PO in the lead) has the option to reprioritize the Story list, and the Team takes the next one to consider.

Independent Review On LinkedIn

“Doug led a 2-day Agile foundation seminar for a 14-person software development team at Vanguard which went on to demonstrate productivity and quality gains which changed the way Vanguard looked at software development. Doug's experiences helped management understand expected challenges and highlighted intangibles not found in the standard Agile and Scrum texts. Doug is a great consultant and teacher, and pays particular attention to people aspects of technical teams.” April 28, 2007

Top qualities: Great Results, Expert, Creative

“Doug is quite possibly the most inspiring manager I have ever worked for. His ability to break the problem down and see it in a different way, coupled with his trust of those who work for him, gave us the desire and ability to succeed. The environment he created allowed our team to come up with the most innovative solutions possible in a rapidly changing, highly demanding environment. With the wrong management, it would have been very stressful - with Doug as our manager, it was the most exciting, dynamic working experience I've had. His ability to organize projects into logical pieces, making sure that those interdependencies were handled, made it possible for each of us to be the experts in our own subject matters, while getting the overall job done. His communication skills are fantastic, and he's the sort of person whose engaging personality encourages people to do their best work.” May 29, 2007
