This guide helps you stay on your guard, providing very practical tips for identifying when you have become a Zombie and how to stop this from happening. A must-have for any Zombie Scrum hunter.” --Dave West, CEO, Scrum.org “Barry, Christiaan, and Johannes have done a magnificent job of accumulating successful experiences and sharing their inspiring stories in this very practical book. They don't shy away from telling it like it is, which is why their proposals are always as useful as they are grounded in reality.” --Henri Lipmanowicz, cofounder, Liberating Structures Millions of professionals use Scrum. It is the #1 approach to agile software development in the world. Even so, by some estimates, over 70% of Scrum adoptions fall flat.

The power of serving with agile project management: Why becoming the Servant Leader for your SCRUM team is the best decision you can make today If you buy the Kindle or paperback version, you will get the audio version for free! This publication is a bundle that contains 2 books: Agile Scrum Crash Course: Discover How to Get the Professional Scrum Master Certification PSM1 and Boost Your Team's Effectiveness With Agile Project Management Servant Leadership: Learn the Most Effective Soft Skills to Become a Servant Leader and Guide Your Team to Success Self-serving, autocratic, dictatorial leadership is so last century. If organizations want to move up in the world, they have to abandon the old leadership methods. These methods consist of strict hierarchy, allowing little to no room for the employees to grow within the company, and the value of human labor is driven to the lowest. This is the era of servant leadership. Renowned for its radical approach to leadership, the servant model can impact human satisfaction in any company, therefore increasing its productivity. Putting people in the first place, a servant leader deflects attention from himself and empowers every member of the team. By empowering others, the leaders find their power and become an authority. This fits totally with the Agile principles and values, and SCRUM is the best framework that you can use to help your team to accomplish great results, becoming a SCRUM master: the Servant Leader for your Agile team.
