Prioritizing your work effectively + The goal of stories

As an Agile coach who teaches Scrum practices, I want to effectively teach you how to prioritize your work effectively.

In combination with this workshop I recommend to also do “The goal of stories” workshop as they both give your organization a solid foundation on how to continue forward with your work. When doing this workshop you do not have to have prior experience to Scrum as this will be partially explained during the workshop. If you have experience with Scrum we will spend time using what you have learned on the actual data you have.

The benefits this brings you are:
– Learn what Scrum is and how this will make your organization more effective
– Get guidance on how to talk to your other squad members and give great estimates on the work you are about to do
– Understand the goal of user stories and how to utilize them the right way
– Find out the benefit from sitting together vs writing long documentation requirements through an interactive game.
– Participate in the benefits of relative estimations vs absolute estimations
– Be able to use a technique for estimations using the Fibonacci sequence.
– Plan ahead in time so you know what workload is coming towards your squad.
– Prioritize the work that is most beneficial to your squad or organization vs trying to do everything at once.
– Listen to the way your colleagues think and come to new understandings through interactive games
– Have a personalized workshop based on your organizations needs.
– Have an Agile coach present who cannot only answer Scrum related questions, but also questions how to incorporate this in your Agile transition.
– When there is time left, we can go over practical examples within your organization and apply the theory to practice immediatly.

That is not all

This combo / individual workshop can be ordered again for your specific squad. Instead of getting just the theory, we will go through the data you have OR help you build a way of working to apply the specific skill with actual data from your organization.

Practically how does this service work?

u

Fixed time service

This workshop is a fixed time service. Depending on the size of your team, one workshop can last from 2-3.5 hours. Since this is a combo package, the workshop will be 4-7 hours long.

u

Themes

We can also do this workshop in 2 themes:
– Business casual themed (like any workshop you have ever attended to)
– Dungeons and Dragons themed (like the Table Top Role Playing game)

u

Formats

We can do this workshop in 3 formats:
– Physical on location within your organization
Remote over Teams, Google meet, Zoom, Discord, Slack … any remote calling solution that works for you.
– Physical on location somewhere outside of your organization

Pricing

Generally speaking we have workshop sessions for focused groups. The size I see being chosen the most is 20 people. This means that a large part of the tribe or a larger part of management follows the workshop and decides at a later time to let their individual teams follow the workshop as well where we go deeper into actual specific team examples. A price is negotiable based on the specific requirements the requestor has for this service.

An example I can give you is the following:
20 people, off-site, in another location than your own company building, including food and beverages throughout the day + after workshop dinner + 1 remote 4 hour deep dive retrospective session 1 week after the workshop took place will cost you around 18.000 euro.

This is an example if you would like to do one workshop on a remote location. Companies that are thinking of booking this workshop, consider combining it with multiple other workshops I provide. This leads into hotel bookings we make for you for this multi-day Agile bootcamp. For more details or a custom proposal for you needs, you may contact us.
