A Team Leader that has taken a 180-degree turn.
From now on, everything you've learned about Team Leadership will be challenged by agility. It is very likely that you will soon work, if you are not already doing so, under the agile framework most sought after by companies and most popular worldwide: Scrum.

Under Scrum, you will no longer be the one who determines the work to be done or the assignment of tasks.
You will focus on two team attributes that are opposite to what has been done before Scrum existed, which makes them counter-intuitive. These attributes are multi-functionality and self-management.
You will work serving the Product Owner, the Developers, and the Organization, ensuring the fluidity in their work removing organizational impediments, which provide a healthy Scrum implementation.
In your day-to-day, you will work on Sprints, which are fixed periods to build and deliver Product Increments to be reviewed with your stakeholders and learn from their feedback.
In the meantime, you should be aware of the purpose, dynamics, tools, and anti-patterns for each of the Scrum meetings, such as Sprint Planning, Daily Scrum, Sprint Review, and Sprint Retrospective.
Your role is fundamental in each and every one of these Scrum meetings. You will be the facilitator, and you will be responsible for overseeing the process by which the other team members will make collaborative decisions.
And your responsibilities do not end here; you should also facilitate refinement activities with a large part of the team and stakeholders, groups of people who generally think very differently, to generate agreements and shared decisions.
DAdditionally, great Scrum Masters learn this new way of leading by being of service and knowing all about Scrum, adaptive control models, evolutionary product development, and facilitation. Still, they also pay close attention to unlearning many forms of leadership that become impediments to successfully implementing Scrum.
All those learnings and unlearning are awaiting you within the Scrum Master certification.

Upon completion of this Scrum Master certification course
You will understand Scrum and its alignment with Agility so that you have a clear understanding of the values and principles to promote. And, incidentally, not have a slip-up.
You will identify the rights and responsibilities of each of the Scrum roles: Scrum Master, Product Owner, and Developers to start implementing Scrum on the right foot and avoid a mix-up of roles that are seen so often.
You will learn about personal experiences that I have gathered throughout my twenty-plus years of working with Scrum regarding fundamental subtleties of the Product Owner role and its collaboration with Developers.
You will be able to describe, like few others, the adaptive control patterns behind the Scrum framework that make it the way it is.
You will know the purpose and dynamics of Scrum meetings and, just as much and more importantly, the anti-patterns you must pay attention to carry out a healthy Scrum.
You will have an above-average level of understanding of the meaning of transparency, inspection, and adaptation and the role they play in Scrum’s efficiency.
You will communicate the importance of the ‘Definition of Done’ and its differentiation concerning what is commonly known as Acceptance Criteria of the work to be done.
You will have the ability to identify when a team has a healthy Product Backlog and not. You will also have the ability to implement appropriate corrective measures.
You will differentiate facilitation from coaching so that you can identify, depending on the situation, when to use each of these disciplines to get the most out of them.
You will identify the most essential attributes of Servant Leadership and the main difference from traditional leadership.
The truth is that this course exceeded all my expectations! On one hand, since I had been told about the course while it was being taught in person and how it was great using that modality so I had my doubts of how it would be in a virtual format and so many hours too!!! And the truth is the way Martin handles breaks, the breakrooms with teammates and allies, the use of Mural, and how well-detailed all the activities were, made the course fun. In regards to the course content, I loved learning more about when to use Scrum or not and how Scrum generates value compared to a traditional methodology. I thought that only Scrum artifacts, roles, pillars, etc. were going to be covered but I leave with a lot more! Thank you!!!
