• In fact, some misuses are so common they even got their own nicknames!This course will shed some light on various nicknames and terms used by the Agile community.

• You will learn about Fragile Agile, TrAgile, WaterScrum, ScrummerFall, WaterScrumFall, Cargo Cult, Zombie Scrum, Dark Scrum and more.Sometimes controversial, sometimes insightful, I will give you information (as well as my own biased opinions) on the most common mistakes and failures, discuss what they mean in practice, and how to avoid them in your own work.The course is meant in a lighthearted way, so please do not get upset if you recognise any of the faulty behaviours or practices in yourself or your team.

• The idea behind inventing those names is not to put labels on or criticise other people’s work but rather to raise awareness of the common issues experienced by Agile teams and help them overcome those issues moving towards a more successful and sustained adoption of Agile.Who this course is for:Agile and Scrum practitioners of any levelsAgile Scrum and how NOT to do it by Kate N, what is included (Content proof: Watch here!)Introduction2 lectures3 minWelcome to the course!Meet the instructorThe power of words7 lectures28 minGetting startedA quick disclaimerWhat’s in a name?The gameRunning sprintsSit-down standupsVocabulary – final noteFragile Agile4 lectures17 minFrAgile overviewPartial adoption (e.g. Lipstick Agile)Cargo Cult AgileTrAgile (e.g. Cowboy Agile)Water-based Scrum5 lectures14 minWaterfall vs Agile overviewHybrid approaches overviewWater-Scrum-FallScrummerFallWaterScrumOther forms of non-Scrum4 lectures20 minZombie ScrumCargo Cult ScrumDark ScrumScrumButSummary of the course1 lecture6 min A one-page summary diagram 05:38 Final Quiz0 lecture0 min Final quiz for the course 8 questionsInstructorKate N PhDKate NMy background includes consultancy, product management, academic teaching, scientific research, and technical support roles.
