Target group

Young researchers at the RPTU and the Fraunhofer institutes ITWM and IESE interested in agile project management

Seminar description

Projects increase in numbers and importance since the complexity of businesses and research topics increases. Combine these with uncertainty and highly dynamic goals and classic project management approaches reach their limits. Agile methods such as scrum can help, staying focused and flexible at the same time.

Learning objectives

Participants get to know agile project management with scrum. They gain insight in the several tasks of product owners, scrum masters and the scrum team and understand the typical approach in agile projects using scrum.

Additionally, they learn using Kanban-boards as a method to keep track of numerous tasks – as individuals and as teams in projects and other contexts.

Handout

Participants receive documents in the form of worksheets as well as the presentation for download
