Agile Project Management With Scrum Book Club Discussion

Please join us for our Agile Mindset Book Club discussion on the book Agile Project Management with Scrum by Alex Campbell. Danilsa will lead us in a discussion on this book.

We selected this for the next book because we have some participants that are working as Project Managers on agile teams. We wanted to explore a bit in this area early in our new year!

This is available hard copy, or audible. Whether you have a chance to read it, or just want to hear what others thoughts are on it, please feel free to join us on zoom. (Zoom info will show for members that RSVP yes.)

Here is the description:
Are you looking for a tool that can help make work more flexible for your team? Do you want a structured and organized approach in the way your projects are handled? Do you want a more streamlined process for communications and deadlines? If your answer to any of the above questions is a yes, then you have come to the right place. Management is understood in different ways by different people. Economists regard it as a factor of production. Sociologists see it was a class or group of persons while practitioners of management treat it as a process. For our understand management may be viewed as what a manager does in a formal organization to achieve the objectives. It is called bee by Mary Parker Follet: “The art of getting things done through people”. This definition throws light on the fact that managers achieve organizational goals by enabling others to perform rather than performing the tasks themselves. The writer emphasizes on the project management skills with a maiden introduction of “Scrum project management skills”. Author has briefed the differences between management methodology of Scrum project management and other project management methods.
