Agile & Scrum: Jak na efektivní řízení projektů

The terms "agile" and "scrum" are connected with the field of project management. If you are interested in more effective work in a team, then learn how to achieve it with modern methods.

The scrum process is one of the most frequently used processes of the agile methods. It is based on teamwork, feedbacks, and transparent communication within a team and a company. It means that an assigned project is needed to be divided into separate functional parts solved individually. The parts called "sprints" are solved systematically, and each is given enough time to be dealt with. All sprints are evaluated at their end. Then it provides an opportunity to explore problems quickly, react and eliminate said problems, and take necessary steps to complete the task.

Agile and Scrum are in contrast to the traditional methods based on stereotypes in management. However, this process isn't supposed to be the goal of a project but only an effective way to achieve the project goals.

Our workshop is focused on bringing new methods in project management and breaking the stereotypes in teamwork. Agile and Scrum processes can help your team to be more effective, flexible, and successful.
