Scrum 101 - Unleashing the theory!

The core of the practice of Agile is the delivery of individual projects; it's where most practitioners start out, and it fundamentally changes the way a project team works together and works with their stakeholders.Scrum is one of the most popular Agile delivery approaches at the moment.  In this APN session, Carolyn Sanders uses one of her recent projects as a way to illustrate each facet of Scrum and how it panned out in real life, from start to finish.This talk is directed at APN members - developers, testers, project managers, PMO managers and CIOs - who are relatively new to Scrum and want to explore the practical detail at the day-to-day level of a single project. The session will end with a Q&A to allow you to explore how Scrum integrates with other parts of the practice of Agile, or dig deeper into how it worked for one team.
