YDS: Our Product Owner Won't Create a Sprint Goal!
Ryan and Todd discuss a common issue in Scrum where a product owner is unwilling to create a sprint goal. They suggest that it may be due to outside pressure and suggest approaching the problem with empathy and understanding. They recommend understanding the root cause of the product owner's frustration, exploring the possibility of pressure from above, and discussing the benefits of having a sprint goal. Ryan and Tood also suggest that shifting the product owner's mindset may take time and several discussions. They also suggest exploring product goals, which are the longer-term objectives of the Scrum team. ⏩ Join Ryan and Todd for a Scrum.org course: https://buytickets.at/agileforhumansllc Todd and Ryan also co-authored a book - Fixing Your Scrum: Practical Solutions to Common Scrum Problems. 👉 Buy Fixing Your Scrum at Amazon: https://amzn.to/3BMvkcX ✅Subscribe to our Channel to learn more about Agile, Scrum, and Kanban: https://www.youtube.com/agileforhumans?sub_confirmation=1 For more information about Agile for Humans, visit: Community: https://community.agileforhumans.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/agileforhumans Twitter: https://twitter.com/agileforhumans LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/agile-for-humans-llc Website: https://www.agileforhumans.com #facilitation #facilitationskills #ScrumMaster #ScrumMasterTraining #Scrum #ScrumFramework #HowToBecomeAScrumMaster #ScrumMasterCertification #AgileForHumans #FreeScrumMasterCourse #FreeScrumTraining See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

YDS: How Do Flow Metrics in Sprint Planning Work?
The video is about flow metrics in Sprint Planning on a Scrum Team. The speaker is joined by Pratik Singh, Head of Learning and Development at ProKanban.org, to discuss how flow metrics can be used in Sprint Planning. Todd and Ryan mention that many people have debated the usefulness of story points and how flow metrics can be a better solution. They mention that throughput is the most suitable flow metric for Sprint planning as it measures the number of things getting done per unit of time. The conversation also discusses how throughput can replace story points and velocity in Sprint planning. ⏩ Join Ryan and Todd for a Scrum.org course: https://buytickets.at/agileforhumansllc Todd and Ryan also co-authored a book - Fixing Your Scrum: Practical Solutions to Common Scrum Problems. 👉 Buy Fixing Your Scrum at Amazon: https://amzn.to/3BMvkcX ✅Subscribe to our Channel to learn more about Agile, Scrum, and Kanban: https://www.youtube.com/agileforhumans?sub_confirmation=1 For more information about Agile for Humans, visit: Community: https://community.agileforhumans.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/agileforhumans Twitter: https://twitter.com/agileforhumans LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/agile-for-humans-llc Website: https://www.agileforhumans.com #facilitation #facilitationskills #ScrumMaster #ScrumMasterTraining #Scrum #ScrumFramework #HowToBecomeAScrumMaster #ScrumMasterCertification #AgileForHumans #FreeScrumMasterCourse #FreeScrumTraining See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

YDS: Should We Track Business Value as We Would Velocity?
Todd and Ryan discuss tracking business value as a metric similar to velocity. They believe that measuring business value is essential for understanding the success of products and that evidence-based management is a good approach. They also suggest that metrics such as cycle time, throughput, and item age may be more beneficial than velocity. They caution against using perceived business value, the perceived value of a product backlog item, instead of validated business value, which is the actual value delivered to customers. Todd and Ryan suggest that product owners should strive to measure validated business value and that evidence-based management can help in this respect. ⏩ Join Ryan and Todd for a Scrum.org course: https://buytickets.at/agileforhumansllc Todd and Ryan also co-authored a book - Fixing Your Scrum: Practical Solutions to Common Scrum Problems. 👉 Buy Fixing Your Scrum at Amazon: https://amzn.to/3BMvkcX ✅Subscribe to our Channel to learn more about Agile, Scrum, and Kanban: https://www.youtube.com/agileforhumans?sub_confirmation=1 For more information about Agile for Humans, visit: Community: https://community.agileforhumans.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/agileforhumans Twitter: https://twitter.com/agileforhumans  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/agile-for-humans-llc  Website: https://www.agileforhumans.com #facilitation #facilitationskills #ScrumMaster #ScrumMasterTraining #Scrum #ScrumFramework #HowToBecomeAScrumMaster #ScrumMasterCertification #AgileForHumans #FreeScrumMasterCourse #FreeScrumTraining See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
