When I talk to my executive clients about their challenges in business, the topic that comes up over and over is innovation. Success is all about innovation, particularly the speed of innovation. Now, why is that?

Today, many people wonder how Musk companies like Tesla and SpaceX can innovate so fast. Musk and other senior executives however have already shared the secret! It’s a 5-step process they call “The Algorithm.” I’m Peter B. Stevens; this is the Agile Minute, and here’s how it works! (Video and Infographic)
Second course with Peter and I enjoyed it equally as first one! Special shout out to Sabine for the hospitality!
I loved the course as I could learn the Scrum basics in an interactive, face-to-face way. Peter is a great moderator and storyteller, which made the learning process very entertaining.
Very motivating and experienced trainer with a wide industry knowledge. A person how can show you how to live scrum and not only know the theory.
Peter is a Scrum Master Coach who brings a deep experience and knowledge to the class. I recommend his class to anyone seeking to enhance their understanding of scrum and improve their project management skills.
Though examples, interactive tasks, and discussion we got to understand the fundamental aspects of a Scrum Team and its processes.
I'd recommend this to anyone that wants to learn the points of Scrum and what makes it work in a company that doesn't have Scrum implemented yet.
I very much appreciated the hands on approach Peter used. To the points examples and tips are very powerful to bring theory alive.
Peter is really aware to the class needs and wants. Scrum is not just for software development, and should be considered for every product driven field.
Peter truly is a trainer like no other.
Peter’s Scrum-Master course was one of the best experiences to understand the concepts and principles of Scrum.
He made sure that the required content is fully understood by the participants with a flavor of humor.
