Working From Home/Virtual Teams

If COVID-19 is forcing your team to work remotely for the first time, our Working With Virtual Teams series can help! Comprised of 8 lessons with 6 videos, we hope this helps skyrocket your team’s work-from-home productivity.

Downloadable Materials

We strive to create great course materials like useful training manuals, informative lesson texts, and handy quick-reference guides. Most are only offered to our students, but for a limited time, we’ve made some of them free downloadables.

Backlog Refinement Overview

One of the things that I’ve noticed in my coaching of Scrum teams is how difficult it is to do Effective Backlog Refinement. So, I thought I might release a series of short blog posts focused on backlog refinement, what it is and how it works.

For Leaders Only

Excellent leaders are critical to product quality and team productivity, but those in leadership roles face much different challenges than the rest of the Scrum team. For that reason, we’re always developing exclusive leadership resources.

Video Content

If you want to see all our video content, you’ll have to become a student… but don’t worry, our #AskArtisan series and many of our webinars are available to everyone!

All About Slicing

When it comes to product backlog items, bigger is definitely NOT better! We’ve put all our resources about slicing in one place, so that your team can home those skills and slice your way to optimally-sized PBIs.

Product Ownership

Product Ownership has unique challenges that come with the territory, so we have specific materials to help as you take an active interest in creating a product rather than just managing its development.
