Why is this so hard? Mastering Scrum and Agile
Why is this so hard? Mastering Scrum and Agile
About the Book
If you've worked in tech, or indeed tried to achieve anything using Agile, you may have already asked yourself "why is this SO HARD?!"
Through this book I'll tell you, with a number of entertaining stories, tons of top tips, fun solutions and yes, the odd bit of shouty frustration.
This book doesn't require any prior knowledge of Agile or Scrum, and chapters are structured in such a way that you can dip in and out - you don't need to read them in order. Pretty cool, right?
It's also not a complex (boring), detailed (boring), analysis (boring) of tons of detail (boring) about Agile and Scrum. It's all about making some key points stick, and there's no reason we can't have some fun along the way. Hurrah!
Mark Faulkner has a wealth of experience gained from Scrum teams, Agile delivery and Agile training delivery across Europe. He's a certified Scrum Master (PSMII), and has a proven track record of making complex stuff, really easy to understand.
