Book Description

The COVID-19 pandemic altered the way teams work, turning remote work into a common practice for Agile teams that were originally founded to be co-located, leaving teams to grapple with remote and hybrid setups. The Agile mindset, however, remains the standard for effective teamwork, and this book integrates distributed work into your Agile and Scrum Values. Advanced Distributed Scrum will guide you in harnessing the talents of global team members and overcoming the challenges of working across geographies.

Renowned Agile coach and educator Kelley O’Connell distills 25+ years of experience into this concise guide. The book begins by establishing the foundational principles of distributed Scrum, highlighting the unique roles and responsibilities within hybrid and remote environments. You’ll gain insights into the challenges faced by distributed Agile teams and explore how to cultivate a strong remote team culture, improve communication, and effectively manage conflicts in a virtual space. Finally, you'll put remote Scrum practices into action to maximize the outcomes you're aiming for.

By the end of this book, you’ll be equipped to lead and nurture high-performing distributed teams, facilitate remote ceremonies, implement remote-friendly CI/CD pipelines, and create team norms that drive engagement.
