The Professional Scrum Master II (PSM II) course is a deeper, more advanced exploration of the role of the Scrum Master and how they work with their Scrum Team and organisation. The course explores the stances and choices that a Scrum Master will make, all from the perspective of Servant Leadership. This two (2) day interactive course engages participants in exercises to build practices and skills that will enable them to be more confident within their role.
Over the 2 days, students will learn about areas critical to growing as a successful Scrum Master. They'll learn how the principles and values of Scrum help guide Scrum Masters in the decisions they make and how the Scrum Master can help change the environment of Scrum Teams, creating an environment for agility to thrive.
