Agile and Scrum practices have become very popular, but there is a great misconception of what "doing agile" or "doing scrum" really means. I bet when you think of either of these terms you never think of the phrase "mushy stuff," but this is a term that is pulled from the often quoted history of the Agile Manifesto. This book is a set of tools and practices to help those starting, building, or adding to, their journey as a Scrum Master. This resource isn't just a collection of information pulled from other sources, but my experience of becoming a scrum master. After getting a certificate as a Project Management Professional (PMP) and then starting at a startup and trying to implement common PMP methods, I was quickly told from my developers, if I wanted to stay, I better learn scrum. Two years getting a PMP certificate turned into a mad dash to learn how to become a Scrum Master. Inside, you will read about how to practice agile in context and learn how to use it to create amazing teams that can produce amazing products.
