Successful ScrumButt: Learn to Modify Scrum Project Management for Student and Virtual Teams Paperback

Have you ever seen a promising project get abandoned right when it seemed like it was getting ready to launch?

An Introduction to SCRUM Project Management helps you avoid this common occurrence and highlights the key techniques for maintaining enthusiasm for a project across its lifetime. Scrum is a project management methodology that, when applied faithfully, will increase the rate at which your project is completed, the enjoyment your team has while working on the project, and the return on investment of the project, whether it's time, money, or what's being invested.

This book includes instructions for using Assembla, and activities to introduce people to scrum and practice scrum activities. Soft skills sections help readers to understand not only the action to be taken and the principle, but also how to effectively communicate with others regarding scrum practices, particularly problem solving.
