The basics of being a ScrumMaster are fairly straightforward: At face value, all a ScrumMaster needs to do is facilitate the Scrum process and remove impediments. But being a great ScrumMaster, one who truly embodies the principles of servant-leadership and helps move a team to the high performance levels possible with Scrum, is much harder and much more elusive. In this audiobook, Geoff shares a collection of stories and practical guidance, drawn from over 10 years of coaching numerous Scrum teams that will guide you on your path to greatness.

Scrum is a simple framework that allows us to complete projects, continuously improve, and get an early return on investment. In my experience as a scrum master, team lead, and software engineer, I saw how easy it is for employees of a fast-moving business to put the scrum rules to one side and destroy the very framework that would help make their daily lives easier. Observing how easy it is to forget the fundamental elements of scrum, I have put together this simple checklist that anyone can use on a daily basis.

Software is increasingly being applied to expand the breadth of operational efficiencies in organizations. Today, software is changing every component of the value chain like logistics, operations, and communications. As was with the industrial automation in the 20th century and its impact on the transformation of design, development, and delivery of physical goods, organizations in today’s fast-paced, ever-evolving software market must have a paradigm shift in the way they develop and deliver their software.

More than ever, the effective management of technology is critical for business competitiveness. For decades, technology leaders have struggled to balance agility, reliability, and security. The consequences of failure have never been greater - whether it's the healthcare.gov debacle, cardholder data breaches, or missing the boat with Big Data in the cloud. And yet, high performers using DevOps principles, such as Google, Amazon, and Netflix, are routinely and reliably deploying code into production hundreds, or even thousands, of times per day.

Competitive job market is becoming saturated with candidates who do not fully understand how modern recruitment for agile roles works - at least in Australia.

This includes plenty of my subjective yet educated opinions on a number of topics surrounding general theme of presenting yourself as the most appealing agile job candidate, providing advice on how to capitalize on your current professional background, understanding your skill gaps and available options, and pivoting towards a Scrum Master role within agile digital delivery as efficiently as possible.

- What requirements apply to Scrum Master role candidates these days
- How to deal with Recruiters and get your application through their initial filter

Brilliant
The author has done an excellent effort in breaking down topics to manageable chunks. Furthermore, the author writes with the Australian Agile Market in mind and states it beforehand. However, from my experience, conceptually the ideas arising out of the Agile Delivery space and ground-level manner in which Dmitri tackles the subject can be applied globally, at least to US corporations. Kudos on a book well thought out and written. I look forward to listening to your podcasts.
