Tolles Training, super Trainer, SCRUM in a nutshell
Marc ist ein erfahrener Trainer und angenehmer Gesprächspartner. Stets auf Augenhöhe und mit vielen Praxisbeispielen hat er das SCRUM-Framework sehr gut vermittelt.
Ich hatte das Gefühl jederzeit Fragen stellen zu können und bin mit der Lernmaterialien für die Prüfungsvorbereitung zufrieden.
Im ersten Anlauf bestanden. Ein gutes Gefühl das neue Wissen in die Praxis zu bringen.
Dankeschön!

An den Interessen der Gruppe orientiert!
Das Training von Simon und Marc war absolut Spitze. Die beiden haben sehr gute Antennen die Stimmung der Gruppe zu lesen und auf unsere Bedürfnisse zu reagieren. Sie schafften es innerhalb eines Tages, dass wir eine Vielzahl von Tools & Methoden selbst ausprobieren und erleben konnten, was und wie die einzelnen Facilitation-Werkzeuge wirken. Außerdem war es zu jedem Zeitpunkt möglich Fragen zu stellen! Am hilfreichsten war für mich die Erklärung der Groan-Zone und wie ich es schaffe mit ihr zu arbeiten, um sie möglichst gering zu halten. Durch die ständige Möglichkeit die Dinge in einem sicheren Rahmen ausprobieren zu können, wurden die Facilitation Möglichkeiten sehr anschaulich! Nach der Schulung fühlte ich mich sicherer im Umgang mit Gruppen und der Moderation von schwierigeren Themen. Ein herzliches Danke an die beiden- ich kann ihr Training nur weiterempfehlen!

Well-structured and very interactive workshop!
I recently attended a two-day workshop on “Scrum Professional Agile Leadership,” and it was excellent. Many thanks to Marc and Simon, the trainers, for their outstanding delivery.
The workshop was well-structured, combining theoretical knowledge with practical exercises. Marc and Simon explained complex concepts clearly and were responsive to individual questions and needs. The hands-on activities and real-world examples were particularly valuable, allowing us to apply what we learned immediately.
Overall, the workshop was highly informative and inspiring. I now feel well-equipped to implement agile leadership principles in my professional environment. Thanks again to Marc and Simon for this great experience!

Scrum-tastic Fun and Insight: Thanks, Marc and Simon!
Marc and Simon, thank you so much! This training was not only fun but also incredibly insightful, delivered in an interactive manner that kept us engaged throughout. The practical application of techniques during the workshop was brilliant. Being able to take on the role of facilitator and receive direct feedback from all other participants was immensely helpful in understanding and refining our skills.
I believe this training is a valuable addition for anyone working within a Scrum framework. I'm eagerly anticipating the advanced Scrum Master training and look forward to seeing you both again soon!

Professional, moving and highly recommended.
In three exciting and extremely interesting days, Marc allowed me to delve deeper into the world of Scrum. His empathetic and flexible approach responded to the different needs of my colleagues and myself. I was not only impressed by the professionalism, the expertise and the side stories, but also by the way Marc conveyed the content in a relaxed, friendly and fun way. In my opinion, Marc is a very good teacher and I can highly recommend his course.

Kurzes, effektives und lehrreiches Training
Simon und Marc ist die Gestaltung des Trainings sehr gelungen. Es war interaktiv, spaßig und lehrreich. Alle Teilnehmer waren sehr freundlich und offen. Besonders gut fand ich, dass es die Möglichkeit gab innerhalb der Aufgaben im Training selbst die Rolle des Moderators übernehmen zu können und in einem wohlwollenden Umfeld eine neue Moderationsmethode ausprobieren zu können. Ich konnte für mich einige neue Methoden mitnehmen und freue mich darauf diese auszuprobieren. Absolute Empfehlung! Danke für das tolle Training!

Marc is a great trainer with exceptional skills in motivating and teaching people. Over the 2 day course I've not only learned the purpose of Scrum and all its components, but I also learned more about myself and how to encourage change in my mindset and that of those around me. The training consisted of a perfect mix of theory, collaboration and reflection. It was a great and fun experience. Thank you, Marc!

Simply awesome class!
Content gets wrapped in methods, that you can instantly use and apply on your own Scrum Teams.
The class is extremely interactive and bases on the knowledge of all attendees.
Even after 2 days of being 8 hours per day in the class, I did not feel tired or exhausted! I really can recommend it to any Scrum Master with the theoretic basic knowledge and somewhat experience! The class will help consolidate and deepen your knowledge.

Developing professional agile leadership
The PAL-E training from Marc & Simon gives you an in-depth insight into various dimensions of agile leadership.
The training presented various topics and perspectives in a practice-orientated way. I found the interactive exchange with the trainers and the other participants especially helpful. In addition to the different levels and approaches to leadership and the challenges, I was impressed by the situational approaches.
With "Agile Maturity" and Evidence-Based Management, I understand even better how I can support my organisation and people with agility.
I can only recommend Marc & Simon's PAL-E training to reach the next level of agile leadership.

Marc held a great training without showing content on ppt. By working out the content in the team I expect to memorize it a lot better than by listening to the trainer.

PSFS Training - Great chance to try something new in a safe environment
On 20 March 2024 I attended the Professional Scrum Facilitation Skills Training with Marc and Simon and can only recommend it to everyone. The location alone is reason enough to do a training with the two of them ;-) But beyond that, it was very impressive to see how a group of strangers can be united by experiencing and actively shaping different facilitation techniques. Over the course of the day, the group worked on a wide variety of topics using new facilitation methods. In contrast to other training courses, here you are not just an active participant but can slip into the role of facilitator again and again and thus try out new things in a safe environment. It was particularly helpful for me to realise that you don't need an infinite number of methods, but that it is enough to have a few methods in your toolbox for a few key situations, which you can then skilfully combine again and again to create an overall concept. This realisation will help me a lot when facilitating retrospectives and I have actually already put one or two ideas from the training directly into practice.

Excellent Course on Facilitation within a Scrum Context
Marc and Simon made the most out of the alloted time with a hands-on approach to facilitation that helped the course attendees gain a better grasp of facilitation within the context of Scrum, working through several excercises that we as Scrum Masters could easily relate to, since we've all encountered them at some point in our career.
The focus on principles over techniques is something that is especially relevant for more experienced Scrum Masters while newer Scrum Masters receive a handy toolbox that can guide them through most facilitation challenges.

Ich kann den Professional Scrum Master Kurs mit Marc bedenkenlos weiterempfehlen.

Highly recommended for anyone seeking to improve his skills as scrum master
The Scrum Master Advanced Training training has been beautifully designed to ensure a balanced mix of theory and practice. Each thematic block promoted the active participation of participants through exciting discussions and exchange of knowledge. The training had a strong focus on interactivity, with group activities, role-playing scenarios, and case studies to reinforce key concepts. Participants were encouraged to think critically, solve team problems, and apply agile principles in simulated environments. In summary, Marc and Simon's Scrum Master Advanced Training is an essential step for any Agile practitioner who wants to further develop their skills. The training offers expert facilitation, practical tools and an appropriate amount of humor and lightness to support the learning process. It empowers participants not only as Scrum Masters, but also as a driving force for change in their organizations. Overall, highly recommended!

Great training for taking your scrum master career to the next level
The advanced professional scrum master training helped me a lot to deepen my Scrum knowledge focusing on Scrum principles, values and empiricism. Thanks to the many practical exercises and the exciting discussions in group, I was able to gain new insights for my work with the scrum team as well as with the organization. I have learned a lot about active listening, liberating structures, setting product and sprint goals, conflict management and methods to support the product owner. After this training, I will focus much more on making the scrum values transparent anf working with the product owner on our goals. All in all, Simon and Marc did a great job. Thank you!

Absolut empfehlenswertes Training mit breitem Blick auf Agile Leadership
Das zweitägige PAL-E Training bei Simon und Marc hat mir wertvolle neue Perspektiven auf Agilität in Organisationen und die Möglichkeiten diese zu fördern und zu entwickeln aufgezeigt.
Insbesondere das Konzept der (team) maturity level und das Zusammenspiel der unterschiedlichen agilen Rollen in der Organisation war für mich extrem hilfreich und hat mir für meine tägliche Arbeit konkrete Ansatzpunkte und Werkzeuge mitgegeben.
Die verschiedenen Konzepte und das vermittelte Wissen wurden im Training immer mit konkret anwendbaren, praktischen Tipps und Methoden ergänzt. Den beiden Trainern ist es dabei gelungen trotz der vielen Inhalte eine durchweg lockere und angenehme Atmosphäre zu schaffen. Durch den ständigen Austausch mit den anderen Teilnehmenden und die gemeinsame Arbeit an konkreten Fallbeispielen konnten wir zudem von den vielen unterschiedlichen Erfahrungen und Blickwinkeln in der Gruppe profitieren, was das Training insgesamt zu einer runden Angelegenheit gemacht hat.
Alles in allem ein uneingeschränkt empfehlenswertes Training!

Advancing my Scrum mastery
I recently completed the "Advanced Scrum Master – Professional Scrum Master II" course, and it has been an enriching experience. This 2-day course for advanced Scrum Masters was a step towards taking my own development to the next level and an invaluable opportunity to expand my knowledge and skills through the help and exchange with great people.
Our trainer, Marc Kaufmann, contributed significantly to our growth through his personal and effective training approach. Marc's method is rooted in the Scrum values of openness and self-management. Rather than inundating us with knowledge, Marc encouraged us to actively engage, maintain open communication and participate in the exercises. It was a truly enlightening experience as we found insights and solutions on our own while Marc skillfully guided us in the right direction.
The course, PSM II delves deep into the stances that define an effective Scrum Master, exploring how they can serve the Developers, Product Owner, and the organization at large. The course equips you with the right tools to have meaningful conversations and apply them to become a better Scrum Master.
During the course, we delved into critical areas that are essential for a successful Scrum Master. This includes understanding how the principles and values of Scrum guide our decisions, how to act as a servant leader and how to support developers and product owners to achieve greater effectiveness. The course also covered techniques for changing the environment to make it more conducive for Scrum
One aspect I particularly enjoyed was the focus on the various stances a Scrum Master can adopt, such as being a teacher, coach, mentor, facilitator, or change agent. Learning to identify and apply the right stance in different situations is a key to success as a Scrum Master.
The course not only provided valuable insights but also encouraged collaboration and engagement among the participants through exercises and group activities. The knowledge-sharing and practical exercises with fellow Scrum Masters were incredibly enriching.
I highly recommend this course to any Scrum Master looking to take their Scrum mastery to the next level. The role of a Scrum Master is multifaceted, and this course equips you with the skills and knowledge needed to excel in helping your development team, Product Owner, and organization.
The trainer, Marc Kaufmann, and the entire course structure were exceptional. Don't miss the opportunity to embark on this journey and improve your Scrum Master know-how and know-why!
Thanks to the course, I feel more empowered and confident as a Scrum Master. I'm excited to apply the principles, techniques, and knowledge gained in this course to further enhance my role and bring greater value to my organization.
Thanks again to Marc and the other participants for the inspiring impressions

Jede Person wurde mit Ihren Eigenheiten aufgenommen und konnte so einen sehr guten Beitrag zur Erarbeitung der Themen hinzufügen. Ich fühlte mich sehr gut auf die Prüfung vorbereitet, was das Ergebnis mit 95 % dann auch sichtlich dargestellt hat. Aus diesem Grund habe ich mit im Nachgang auch zum Professionell Lehrgang angemeldet. Ich würde Ihn jederzeit weiter empfehlen und muss sagen, Sie haben mit Ihm einen sehr guten Mitarbeiter, der sowohl die Themen, als auch das Unternehmen sehr positiv repräsentiert.

Großartiges und nachhaltiges Training
Großartige Trainer die das ganze sehr motivierend als auch auflockernd gestaltet haben ohne jemals in ein Frontal Training abgerutscht zu sein. Man hatte selten 30 Minuten wo man nichts machen musste, weshalb das ganze sehr nach dem Learning by Doing Prinzip stattgefunden hat.
Besonders Hilfreich fande ich die nähe an der Realität, alle Beispiele waren erstaunlich nah an reale Situationen, weshalb ich auch nach dem Training noch einiges im Alltag anwenden kann.
Neben einer guten Vorbereitung auf das Assessment (inkl. kostenlosen Versuch) mit einigen Tipps und Dokumenten für nachhinein, fällt es jetzt leichter Scrum Teams einzuschätzen als auch zu führen.

Agile Führung zum Anfassen
Marc und Simon haben uns in einem sehr guten Training die Grundwerte und Grundlagen Agiler Führung näher gebracht. Das beste am Training war, dass dieses Wissen von den Teilnehmern in praktischen Übung selbst erarbeitet wird. Somit habe ich den Inhalt auch gleich verinnerlichen können und habe gleichzeitig handfeste Methoden, dich ich in meinen eigenen Teams ausprobieren kann.

The Professional Agile Leader training was conducted by Simon and Marc. Both trainers have excellent knowledge and background knowledge about the topic and can convey this in a clear and understandable way. I was able to learn a lot of new things in this course and I am convinced that I can also apply this to my organization in a valuable way.

Good experience
I really like the course. Marc is a great speaker, he knows how to deal with the class and the people in a great way. He always wanted the audience to be comfortable, but at the same time he was challenging with us in a constructive way, which I found excellent. The big sheets he used where very explicit and colorful. The content is very appropriate for a 2-day training. I would definitely repeat a course with Marc.

Sollte jede Führungskraft besuchen
Das Training war sehr wertvoll. Auch wenn ich das Training noch nicht als Führungskraft belegt habe, habe ich sehr viel mitgenommen, was mir später als Führungskraft, aber auch bei der Beratung von Unternehmen, welche agil werden wollen helfen kann. Ich würde sogar sagen, dass dieses Training wertvoll für jede Führungskraft ist, um die Vorteile von Agilität zu verstehen und zu verstehen wie man seine Mitarbeiter so unterstützen kann, dass der Erfolg der Firma größer wird. Die beiden Trainer Simon und Marc machen das Ganze dann noch zu einem kurzweiligem und wertvollem Erlebnis. Ich kann den beiden nur vielen Dank sagen.

An den Interessen der Gruppe orientiert!
Das Training von Simon und Marc war absolut Spitze. Die beiden haben sehr gute Antennen die Stimmung der Gruppe zu lesen und auf unsere Bedürfnisse zu reagieren. Sie schafften es innerhalb eines Tages, dass wir eine Vielzahl von Tools & Methoden selbst ausprobieren und erleben konnten, was und wie die einzelnen Facilitation-Werkzeuge wirken. Außerdem war es zu jedem Zeitpunkt möglich Fragen zu stellen! Am hilfreichsten war für mich die Erklärung der Groan-Zone und wie ich es schaffe mit ihr zu arbeiten, um sie möglichst gering zu halten. Durch die ständige Möglichkeit die Dinge in einem sicheren Rahmen ausprobieren zu können, wurden die Facilitation Möglichkeiten sehr anschaulich! Nach der Schulung fühlte ich mich sicherer im Umgang mit Gruppen und der Moderation von schwierigeren Themen. Ein herzliches Danke an die beiden- ich kann ihr Training nur weiterempfehlen!

I recently attended a two-day workshop on “Scrum Professional Agile Leadership,” and it was excellent. Many thanks to Marc and Simon, the trainers, for their outstanding delivery.
The workshop was well-structured, combining theoretical knowledge with practical exercises. Marc and Simon explained complex concepts clearly and were responsive to individual questions and needs. The hands-on activities and real-world examples were particularly valuable, allowing us to apply what we learned immediately.
Overall, the workshop was highly informative and inspiring. I now feel well-equipped to implement agile leadership principles in my professional environment. Thanks again to Marc and Simon for this great experience!

The practical application of techniques during the workshop was brilliant. Being able to take on the role of facilitator and receive direct feedback from all other participants was immensely helpful in understanding and refining our skills.

Developing professional agile leadership
The PAL-E training from Marc & Simon gives you an in-depth insight into various dimensions of agile leadership.
The training presented various topics and perspectives in a practice-orientated way. I found the interactive exchange with the trainers and the other participants especially helpful. In addition to the different levels and approaches to leadership and the challenges, I was impressed by the situational approaches.
With "Agile Maturity" and Evidence-Based Management, I understand even better how I can support my organisation and people with agility.
I can only recommend Marc & Simon's PAL-E training to reach the next level of agile leadership.

PSFS Training - Great chance to try something new in a safe environment
On 20 March 2024 I attended the Professional Scrum Facilitation Skills Training with Marc and Simon and can only recommend it to everyone. The location alone is reason enough to do a training with the two of them ;-) But beyond that, it was very impressive to see how a group of strangers can be united by experiencing and actively shaping different facilitation techniques. Over the course of the day, the group worked on a wide variety of topics using new facilitation methods. In contrast to other training courses, here you are not just an active participant but can slip into the role of facilitator again and again and thus try out new things in a safe environment. It was particularly helpful for me to realise that you don't need an infinite number of methods, but that it is enough to have a few methods in your toolbox for a few key situations, which you can then skilfully combine again and again to create an overall concept. This realisation will help me a lot when facilitating retrospectives and I have actually already put one or two ideas from the training directly into practice.

Excellent Course on Facilitation within a Scrum Context
Marc and Simon made the most out of the alloted time with a hands-on approach to facilitation that helped the course attendees gain a better grasp of facilitation within the context of Scrum, working through several excercises that we as Scrum Masters could easily relate to, since we've all encountered them at some point in our career.
The focus on principles over techniques is something that is especially relevant for more experienced Scrum Masters while newer Scrum Masters receive a handy toolbox that can guide them through most facilitation challenges.

Highly recommended for anyone seeking to improve his skills as scrum master
The Scrum Master Advanced Training training has been beautifully designed to ensure a balanced mix of theory and practice. Each thematic block promoted the active participation of participants through exciting discussions and exchange of knowledge. The training had a strong focus on interactivity, with group activities, role-playing scenarios, and case studies to reinforce key concepts. Participants were encouraged to think critically, solve team problems, and apply agile principles in simulated environments. In summary, Marc and Simon's Scrum Master Advanced Training is an essential step for any Agile practitioner who wants to further develop their skills. The training offers expert facilitation, practical tools and an appropriate amount of humor and lightness to support the learning process. It empowers participants not only as Scrum Masters, but also as a driving force for change in their organizations. Overall, highly recommended!

The advanced professional scrum master training helped me a lot to deepen my Scrum knowledge focusing on Scrum principles, values and empiricism. Thanks to the many practical exercises and the exciting discussions in group, I was able to gain new insights for my work with the scrum team as well as with the organization. I have learned a lot about active listening, liberating structures, setting product and sprint goals, conflict management and methods to support the product owner. After this training, I will focus much more on making the scrum values transparent anf working with the product owner on our goals. All in all, Simon and Marc did a great job. Thank you!

Absolut empfehlenswertes Training mit breitem Blick auf Agile Leadership
Das zweitägige PAL-E Training bei Simon und Marc hat mir wertvolle neue Perspektiven auf Agilität in Organisationen und die Möglichkeiten diese zu fördern und zu entwickeln aufgezeigt.
Insbesondere das Konzept der (team) maturity level und das Zusammenspiel der unterschiedlichen agilen Rollen in der Organisation war für mich extrem hilfreich und hat mir für meine tägliche Arbeit konkrete Ansatzpunkte und Werkzeuge mitgegeben.
Die verschiedenen Konzepte und das vermittelte Wissen wurden im Training immer mit konkret anwendbaren, praktischen Tipps und Methoden ergänzt. Den beiden Trainern ist es dabei gelungen trotz der vielen Inhalte eine durchweg lockere und angenehme Atmosphäre zu schaffen. Durch den ständigen Austausch mit den anderen Teilnehmenden und die gemeinsame Arbeit an konkreten Fallbeispielen konnten wir zudem von den vielen unterschiedlichen Erfahrungen und Blickwinkeln in der Gruppe profitieren, was das Training insgesamt zu einer runden Angelegenheit gemacht hat.
Alles in allem ein uneingeschränkt empfehlenswertes Training!

Advancing my Scrum mastery
I recently completed the "Advanced Scrum Master – Professional Scrum Master II" course, and it has been an enriching experience. This 2-day course for advanced Scrum Masters was a step towards taking my own development to the next level and an invaluable opportunity to expand my knowledge and skills through the help and exchange with great people.
Our trainer, Marc Kaufmann, contributed significantly to our growth through his personal and effective training approach. Marc's method is rooted in the Scrum values of openness and self-management. Rather than inundating us with knowledge, Marc encouraged us to actively engage, maintain open communication and participate in the exercises. It was a truly enlightening experience as we found insights and solutions on our own while Marc skillfully guided us in the right direction.
The course, PSM II delves deep into the stances that define an effective Scrum Master, exploring how they can serve the Developers, Product Owner, and the organization at large. The course equips you with the right tools to have meaningful conversations and apply them to become a better Scrum Master.
During the course, we delved into critical areas that are essential for a successful Scrum Master. This includes understanding how the principles and values of Scrum guide our decisions, how to act as a servant leader and how to support developers and product owners to achieve greater effectiveness. The course also covered techniques for changing the environment to make it more conducive for Scrum
One aspect I particularly enjoyed was the focus on the various stances a Scrum Master can adopt, such as being a teacher, coach, mentor, facilitator, or change agent. Learning to identify and apply the right stance in different situations is a key to success as a Scrum Master.
The course not only provided valuable insights but also encouraged collaboration and engagement among the participants through exercises and group activities. The knowledge-sharing and practical exercises with fellow Scrum Masters were incredibly enriching.
I highly recommend this course to any Scrum Master looking to take their Scrum mastery to the next level. The role of a Scrum Master is multifaceted, and this course equips you with the skills and knowledge needed to excel in helping your development team, Product Owner, and organization.
The trainer, Marc Kaufmann, and the entire course structure were exceptional. Don't miss the opportunity to embark on this journey and improve your Scrum Master know-how and know-why!
Thanks to the course, I feel more empowered and confident as a Scrum Master. I'm excited to apply the principles, techniques, and knowledge gained in this course to further enhance my role and bring greater value to my organization.
Thanks again to Marc and the other participants for the inspiring impressions

Inspirierend und rüttelt einen auf
Die Schulung war eine der besten, die ich bisher besucht habe. Dadurch, dass die Teilnehmer sichdie meisten Inhalte selbst erarbeitet haben und aus den Erfahrungen anderer schöpfen konnten, hat man schnell Punkte und Ideen gefunden die man verbessern und ausprobieren kann. Ein super Augen Öffner, um aus dem Alltag rausgeholt zu werden.

Ein sehr guter Trainer, der sehr zu empfehlen ist
Mark hat die Inhalte sehr gut vermittelt. Es war die perfekte Mischung, aus selber etwas erarbeiten, Informationen vermittelt zu bekommen, die Inhalte visuell sichtbar zu machen und uns mit Interesse beim Thema zu halten. Jede Person wurde mit Ihren Eigenheiten aufgenommen und konnte so einen sehr guten Beitrag zur Erarbeitung der Themen hinzufügen. Ich fühlte mich sehr gut auf die Prüfung vorbereitet, was das Ergebnis mit 95 % dann auch sichtlich dargestellt hat. Aus diesem Grund habe ich mit im Nachgang auch zum Professionell Lehrgang angemeldet. Ich würde Ihn jederzeit weiter empfehlen und muss sagen, Sie haben mit Ihm einen sehr guten Mitarbeiter, der sowohl die Themen, als auch das Unternehmen sehr positiv repräsentiert.

Scrum Master Workshop at its best
Der zweitägige Scrum Master Workshop war eine außergewöhnliche Erfahrung, die meine Erwartungen übertroffen hat. Der Workshop wurde von Marc geleitet, der eine positive und einladende Atmosphäre schuf. Durch eine gut strukturierte und abwechslungsreiche Gestaltung konnten ich ein tiefgehendes Verständnis für Scrum und die verschiedenen Rollen entwickeln. Marc vermittelte komplexe Ideen auf verständliche Weise und nutzte praxisnahe Beispiele, um die Prinzipien von Scrum greifbar zu machen. Die praktischen Übungen ermöglichten es mir, meine neuen Kenntnisse anzuwenden und wertvolle Erkenntnisse zu gewinnen. Der Workshop war nicht nur eine Vermittlung von Wissen, sondern auch ein Katalysator für persönliches Wachstum. Insgesamt war der Scrum Master Workshop eine transformative Erfahrung, die einen nachhaltigen Einfluss auf meine berufliche Laufbahn haben wird.

Das Training war sehr lebendig.
Die Trainer hatten beide gute Tipps und Antworten bei konkreten Fragen.
Die Einsichten aus der Arbeit mit der Maturity-Matrix und den Delegation-Levels haben bei mir einen großen Eindruck hinterlassen.

Die beiden Referenten waren fachlich und rhetorisch excellent. Die Vortragsart und das Einbeziehen der Teilnehmer war vorbildlich und die Location war wunderbar.
Die Schulung war gut strukturiert und hat alle wichtigen Themenfelder für die PAL-Zertifizierung erläutert.
Lernen muss man am Ende selber. Da kommt man nicht drum rum :-)

Großartiges und nachhaltiges Training
Großartige Trainer die das ganze sehr motivierend als auch auflockernd gestaltet haben ohne jemals in ein Frontal Training abgerutscht zu sein. Man hatte selten 30 Minuten wo man nichts machen musste, weshalb das ganze sehr nach dem Learning by Doing Prinzip stattgefunden hat.
Besonders Hilfreich fande ich die nähe an der Realität, alle Beispiele waren erstaunlich nah an reale Situationen, weshalb ich auch nach dem Training noch einiges im Alltag anwenden kann.
Neben einer guten Vorbereitung auf das Assessment (inkl. kostenlosen Versuch) mit einigen Tipps und Dokumenten für nachhinein, fällt es jetzt leichter Scrum Teams einzuschätzen als auch zu führen.

Agile Führung zum Anfassen
Marc und Simon haben uns in einem sehr guten Training die Grundwerte und Grundlagen Agiler Führung näher gebracht. Das beste am Training war, dass dieses Wissen von den Teilnehmern in praktischen Übung selbst erarbeitet wird. Somit habe ich den Inhalt auch gleich verinnerlichen können und habe gleichzeitig handfeste Methoden, dich ich in meinen eigenen Teams ausprobieren kann.

The Professional Agile Leader training is pretty worthfull :-)
The Professional Agile Leader training was conducted by Simon and Marc. Both trainers have excellent knowledge and background knowledge about the topic and can convey this in a clear and understandable way. I was able to learn a lot of new things in this course and I am convinced that I can also apply this to my organization in a valuable way.

Good experience
I really like the course. Marc is a great speaker, he knows how to deal with the class and the people in a great way. He always wanted the audience to be comfortable, but at the same time he was challenging with us in a constructive way, which I found excellent. The big sheets he used where very explicit and colorful. The content is very appropriate for a 2-day training. I would definitely repeat a course with Marc.

Sollte jede Führungskraft besuchen
Das Training war sehr wertvoll. Auch wenn ich das Training noch nicht als Führungskraft belegt habe, habe ich sehr viel mitgenommen, was mir später als Führungskraft, aber auch bei der Beratung von Unternehmen, welche agil werden wollen helfen kann. Ich würde sogar sagen, dass dieses Training wertvoll für jede Führungskraft ist, um die Vorteile von Agilität zu verstehen und zu verstehen wie man seine Mitarbeiter so unterstützen kann, dass der Erfolg der Firma größer wird. Die beiden Trainer Simon und Marc machen das Ganze dann noch zu einem kurzweiligem und wertvollem Erlebnis. Ich kann den beiden nur vielen Dank sagen.

Does the following situation ring a bell?
You enter a room and immediately get involved in a situation, listen how a problem is described, see a task or read a request.
A single look, a single sentence, a small wink makes you think you perfectly know what is going on.
This blogpost invites you to step back and listen before you act. It provides questioning techniques to help you as Scrum Master, Product Owner, Developer or Agile Leader to stay a little bit longer in the state of "actively do nothing" and listen before you act.
