Session Title: Agile Teams, from Good to Great
Speaker: David Bulkin

Is your team satisfied with their performance or do you want to improve? If you want to improve attend this session and get answers to the questions below so your team can move from good to great.

• Everyone knows what a standup is, but how many teams execute them with excellence? If you are ScrumMasters do you know how to participate in a standup while allowing the team to be self-managing?
• You have a task board but does looking at a bunch of independent tasks give your team the needed information they need to be excellent?
• Your team knows how to do planning poker, but what are the specifics that make planning poker work better, and what alternatives can you use when you have 100+ stories to create estimates for?
• Your team understands the concept of generalizing specialist and polly skilling, but how can those who aren’t expert learn when everyone is so busy delivering?
• You know a bit about risk management but do agile teams need to worry about risk and how would we manage risk in an agile environment anyway?
