Manage the backlog so it unites the team toward a common goal and communicates progress to customers and stakeholders.
Drowning in a thousand priorities?
You will try out how a compelling product goal helps you separate the wheat from the chaff and focus on what matters.
A "sorted list" is not always the most suitable visualization. We will introduce you to other ways to visualize the backlog – from mind maps to story maps.
You will find out what and how to record in the backlog – formats that work and those that just slow you down.
Is your team slowed down by uncertainties during planning?
You will learn techniques for splitting and slicing large items, so that every Sprint you can deliver something valuable.
Refinement is a team activity. We will help you involve the entire team in backlog management. Yes, even the programmers.
Using User Story Mapping you will identify the smallest version that fulfills key customer needs and allows you to iterate quickly.
How to gain stakeholder support and keep them engaged?
Not all stakeholders are equally important. Map them and prioritize who to have more frequent contact with. PO sometimes stands for Political Officer.
We will show you how to prepare Sprint Review so that customers and stakeholders want to be part of it and provide valuable feedback.
We will show you how to transparently communicate progress toward the product goal and manage uncertainty along the way.

The course was great. Karel is a perfect trainer. Highly recommended!
The training was great, if not the best in recent years. And trust me, I don't throw superlatives around. The trainer was awesome! Real-world examples always make a difference. Thanks Karel!
Karel's approach was very open and professional. He wasn't afraid to answer any question.
I was inspired by Karel's approach to teaching, the way he answered questions, and especially how elegantly he handled some of the trickier topics raised by our group. Great experience, thank you!
The best training I've attended in recent years, interactive, full of real-world examples. Simply TOP! Thanks Karel
I can't remember the last time I enjoyed a training this much. Karel rocks!
A very inspiring and powerful experience with a professional coach, full of fun exercises. I recommend both the training and the trainer.
