    How am I going to run this course?

    The instructional methods used to create this course will guide students' transformation of words and pictures effectively through the working memory, so that information and learning are incorporated into existing knowledge in long-term memory.

    By the end of the course, you will have gained a set of techniques and exercises to help you conduct effective Scrum events. This course will focus on what happens once development has begun, to keep things Agile and on target.

    All this knowledge can be used to identify what needs to improve in product implementation and what needs to be adjusted for the product to achieve its desired quality.

    Also, all this information can be used to coordinate the team and the work the team produces. It can also be used to identify work that needs improvement to become more efficient and less wasteful.

    There are many other methods and they all perform well with Scrum as well as with other frameworks, methodologies, or in real life. But in this course, you will see how I conduct Scrum events.

    Are you ready? Let's dive in!!!

  • Getting the Most from this Course4:58

    In this dynamic lecture, we're kicking things off with a bang! Join us as we dive deep into the world of Scrum and reveal powerful learning strategies to supercharge your educational experience.


    What You'll Learn in This Lecture:


    1. The importance of FOCUS in your learning journey.

    2. How handwritten notes can enhance your understanding?

    3. The Two-Column Method for optimized note-taking.

    4. The art of visualizing your goals for motivation.

    5. Applying Scrum concepts in real-world scenarios.

    6. The science of spaced repetition for long-term retention.

  • Introduction to Scrum Events3:09

    Scrum is executed in what are called sprints, or short iterations of work lasting usually no more than 4 weeks.

    A sprint employs four official scrum events also known as Scrum Ceremonies to ensure proper execution:

    1. Sprint planning,

    2. Daily scrum,

    3. Sprint review, and

    4. Sprint retrospective.

    5. And we have The Sprint.

    The Sprint is an event in itself that contains all the work and all the other events that happen during the timeboxed period of development. In this picture, we also have project retrospectives which we will cover later on in this course.

    Let's deep dive into official Scrum Events.

  • Scrum Book Recommendation12:49

    Some students asked me to recommend Scrum books.

    So, I don't want to overwhelm you with too many books.

    Here is just one Scrum Book review.

    I started with this book, and I learned WHAT AND WHY.

    So if it's possible, get this book, read it and then continue with the course. Of course, you can continue without it...

Requirements

  • Recommended but not mandatory: Basic overview of the Scrum framework
  • Everyone can join. I explain everything from the ground up.

Description

Ever sat in a sprint planning meeting that dragged on for hours without clarity?

Or daily scrums that felt like question sessions?

Or retrospectives where the same problems come up every two weeks without any real solutions?

I was...

And here's the truth. It's not Scrum's fault. Your events just aren't being run the way they should be.

Most companies treat Scrum events as boxes to check rather than powerful tools for getting results. Teams go through the motions, sprint planning, daily scrums, retrospectives. Yet their speed doesn't improve, delivery stays unpredictable, and executives question whether "going Agile" is worth it.

There's a better way. And I'll show you exactly how to make every Scrum event drive real business results.

I'm Dejan Majkic, Chief Information Officer and Certified Scrum Master and Product Owner. I've trained 133,126+ students. I also lead Agile changes that delivered 30% better efficiency and 20% lower costs in complex government work. I don't teach Scrum from a textbook, I teach the proven methods I use every day managing 500+ employees under tight budgets, government rules, and people who resist change.

If these methods work in government IT projects (where politics, old systems, and red tape make "textbook Scrum" impossible), they'll work in your environment.

What makes this course different:

Instead of just explaining what happens in each Scrum event, you'll learn how to run them in ways that improve the four Key Value Areas that companies actually measure:

  • Current Value – Run sprint reviews that clearly show the business value you delivered to stakeholders who doubt you

  • Time-to-Market – Run sprint planning that cuts waste and speeds up delivery

  • Ability-to-Innovate – Lead retrospectives that find real improvements, not just surface problems

  • Unrealized Value – Find new opportunities through well-run events

This isn't just about running better meetings. It's about connecting Scrum events to the business results executives care about, customer happiness, money earned, beating competitors, and long-term growth.

Here's the change you'll experience:

Sprint Planning Mastery
Turn vague goals into clear promises that teams actually keep. You'll learn the real-world methods I use to get stakeholder support, manage added work, and set sprint goals that balance big dreams with what's really possible. No more promising too much and delivering too little.

Daily Scrums That Take 15 Minutes (Not 45)
Stop the status-report trap that wastes everyone's time. You'll learn the simple structure that keeps standups focused, finds problems right away, and keeps your team aligned, without turning into mini-planning sessions or complaint time.

Sprint Reviews That Stakeholders Actually Enjoy
Stop boring executives with technical words they don't understand. Learn to show completed work in business terms that prove ROI, show value, and justify continued money. Your stakeholders will start looking forward to sprint reviews instead of dreading them.

Sprint Retrospectives That Drive Real Change
Move past the same complaints meeting after meeting with no improvement. You'll get exercises with step-by-step guides that find root causes, expose system problems, and create real action items. Build retrospectives where teams actually want to join in.

Plus advanced quality methods:

  • Software walkthroughs for design alignment

  • Technical reviews for code quality and knowledge sharing

  • Requirements checks for preventing defects before they're built

Real examples from real changes
Every lesson includes practical examples from complex government IT projects where I've used these exact methods. You'll see how to handle difficult stakeholders, work within limits, overcome people who resist change, and deliver results even when everything isn't perfect.

Perfect if you're:

  • New to Scrum and want to learn from someone who's doing this work daily, not just consulting

  • A Scrum Master struggling to make events productive and prove value to leadership

  • A Product Owner who wants better stakeholder involvement and clearer priorities

  • A team member tired of wasting time in meetings that don't accomplish anything

  • An executive checking out Agile adoption and need to understand what good looks like

  • Preparing for certifications (PSM, PSPO) and want real-world context beyond theory

What you get:

  • 2.5 hours of focused, action-ready video content (no fluff, no filler)

  • 25 practical lessons you can use in your very next sprint

  • Retrospective exercises with guides

  • Templates and checklists you can download for each event type

  • Lifetime access with free updates as Scrum evolves

30-day money-back guarantee. Take the course, use the methods in your next sprint, and see the difference. If you don't find immediate value, get a full refund—no questions asked.

Join 5,390+ students who have changed their Scrum events from time-wasting checkbox ceremonies into value-delivery engines that stakeholders trust and teams actually enjoy.

Your Scrum events can either be the best part of your sprint or the most frustrating. The difference is knowing how to run them properly.
