VisAgi Ireland plays Scrum Builders

Have you met happy developers who are always over-committing in their plans? Or project managers that would like to have precise plan? And you were looking for a game that would open the discussion in a safe manner? We are happy to invite you to play an agile game to explore key agile concepts including value, focus, slack, commitment, respect and openness and to discuss the effects of a wider system on teams. During the game you will be discussing teams and outcomes from both the customer’s and a team member’s point of view.

The game will be facilitated by its designer, John Albrecht. In John’s own words, more details about the game: “Using a metaphorical team of ‘Scrum Builders’ rather than a software team helps tap into a deeper level of thinking with some extra psychological safety thrown in for free. I have found that game works well either with a group or an individual. I have played it with scrum teams, product owners, project managers, an entire project office, groups of managers and leaders to explore and open discussions around the relationships between value and trade-offs between environment and outcome.”
