Synopsis:


Maximizing Sustainable Pace: How Teams Raise Their Own Bar

The core team members on an Agile project are continuously engaged over the life of the project, rather than contributing only for certain phases. The team is also focused on delivering potentially shippable product increments in short time-boxes. Agile product delivery frameworks and the focus on self-organizing and cross functional teams pose a special challenge for the ScrumMaster. How can I help my team to reach a high performance level and maintain it over a longer period of time, without burning out?  Come hear strategies on how as a ScrumMaster you can help your Agile/Scrum team perform at a peak levels over the entire life of the product development effort.
