Certified Scrum Product Owner (CSPO) In-Person Training

Lead the Product Journey, from bright ideas to happy customers.

Delivering value isn't just about following a set of requirements or a process. It's about engaging customers, discovering their needs and sequencing work to optimize outcomes rather than just outputs. Product Owners are central to maximizing the flow of value produced by the product delivery teams. Not just in person, but even when the whole team is online and virtual.

If you're ready to learn how to deliver value with Scrum in a fun and engaging way via pragmatic techniques you can apply immediately, this course is for you. From deep study of brain science and adult learning, we've learned what it takes to be effective in -person and virtual environments and avoid "Zoom fatigue."

A great PO skillset spans:

• facilitating & negotiating internal and external stakeholder needs
• translating needs into actionable requirements in the product backlog
• supporting product and project development teams throughout their planning, development and release activities
• ensuring teams and stakeholders exercise frequent feedback cycles to guide future plans
• managing expectations and projections from vision all the way through product release

Such skills are hard to learn via lecture alone - so this workshop is hands-on and interactive. This is no PowerPoint snooze fest. Short presentations cover concepts. Immersive team-based exercises are interwoven into each lesson to get you hands-on practice. Delivered in three half-day sessions, with a brief orientation and closing sessions with the instructor.
