How to Get Experience as a Scrum Master Without Being a Scrum Master
with Katrina L Coker
This is the number one question Katrina gets asked by people interested in the Scrum Master role - and her advice has nothing to do with what verbiage to use on your resume or in an interview. In this session, Katrina will give practical advice on the skills it takes to be a great Scrum Master, how to acquire or enhance those skills, and things to consider regarding whether you really want to be a Scrum Master anyway.
