My way to Certified Scrum Professional

-
In the next lines I am going to show you my way to Certified Scrum Professional (CSP).
A year ago, I was at a point where I really wanted to go deeper into the agile mindset. I had a good running team with respectful pace and mindset, but I had the claim to help my organisation to go further in the agile way. In my mind I had a naiv picture of a workplace where all employees are happy stressfree and care about each others in very professional attitude and high quality work. Sounds good, doesn't it?
I believe very strong, that the agile movement could make the world a better workplace. If you have satisfied and intrinsic motivated employees you will receive a high quality work in the manner of craftsmanship.
So I where looking for an further education in agility. In the "normal" education institutes like universities there where no possibilitiy to strenghten your maturity in agile. So I found the further education offer of TheScrumTeam.
Modules for Prozess, Product, People, Quality, Organisation and OpenSpace where exactly what I had looked for.
It was one of my best decisions I have made. During the last year I transform from a believer to a maker. I am not just believe that agile is good, I had know the power and reputation to do so and this makes me very happy. I have know the possibility to help my organisation to produce less waste and quality and customer focused products. We have to do so. The world is moving faster, and we have to prepare us for disruptive changes even in our old and dusty insurance industrie.
During this education I personally changed from only be a ScrumMaster to an influencer. Not only this several days of education brings you to that change, also lot of books that I have read, and still have to read. Further is a great community of agile enthusiasts in the world, where you can get inputs.

Another part of the education was to start a community project. We decided to address the human part of agile. In our project ascrum.blospot.com, we collect some excercises for minfulness. If you are at that point to also bring in mindfulness in your daily business you will gain even more focus and empathy in your team.

All in all it changed my life. To see the work to be a part of your life.

My mission
Make the world a better workplace, be professionell and respect your own and your collegue.

Hi ScrumMaster's Have you ever ask yourself what really matters for your Job? Where you should have Focus on? What is expected from this role? I have made some experience I would like to share with you. This experience are based on my own work with different teams, but also from books like Scrum Mastery from Geoff Watts, Whitepapers from Barry Overeem and other inspiring articels on the web. My way to Certified Scrum Professional did also have Impact to this. Maybe there are some ideas you can benefit from. Idea Proportions in the following picture are not choosen at random. You-Team-Organization-Community. In this order I see the responsibility in the role of a ScrumMaster. You have to be ready for this Job, then you can bring your Team to success and out of your success you can help the organization to become better in agility. After all, the community is thankful, if you share your experience with others, so the agile movement can grow. You  - ScrumMaster is in the Cente

ScrumMaster - ThatMatters Most important for a ScrumMaster is to look after himself. For you it will be essential to live what you belief in and hold the flag upright. You have to be agile, not acting agile. Working on your facilitator, teacher, mentor, leader role and striving for excellence. It is hard work, because of the diversity, but in my opinion the most complete role you can have. How you can do that? Read books, follow the world agile leaders, conferences, local community and most important experiment with your idea, inspect and adapt. For this, change your flight height to see more in the hole context, what is going on in your team and with yourself. If you read further, your will find the most important things in my opinion, that matters to you. There are more points to look after, belief me. Picture Description Be Authentic means, not lying to yourself. I feel this as a very central aspect in the work of leader roles. Spec

What Scrum Master do, when they do not master Scrum

I am already had a similar post , but here I want to go for more options for the Scrum Master. In the meantime I came to another view to this theme. Where ends the Scrum Master role? Generally you can say, that if you do Scrum with perfect self organized teams, with high level of Agile mindset there is no more need for a Scrum Master. Everthing is mastered by the Team and Product Owner. The team organizes their dailies, do the retrospective to continuous adaption. The Product Owner do his job properly and organizes the Sprint Review and Sprint Planning 1. Responsible for Sprint planning 2 is the team. What do you mean? Where is the place for the Scrum Maser role? If a Scrum Master do his job well, then he is digging his own grave. But should not that fact be the driver behind the Agility. When a Scrum Master reach this point then he achived the highest Scrum Master Maturity (and could check all points of Great Scrum Master ). He is only needed punctually in the team. So to answer
