From the first minute Karel entertained us. He created an atmosphere that forced us to think "out of the box". The training opened my eyes to many things. Thank you!
Yuliya Palkovs, BNP Parbias Cardiff

Both days were intense yet engaging thanks to the informal and humorous approach.

Karel obviously loves his work. His passion for the topic is as captivating as his knowledge.

Michiel Praamsma, NN Group
A very valuable training, two days of lectures and hands-on exercises. I applied it in my company right away and changed many processes.
Jiří Bukovjan, CEO & Founder, NOXGAMES

The trainer has a lot of experience from agile transformations of large teams and companies, with insight into Scrum, traditional processes, and also the mindset of developers and managers.

It was great to see a "real life" approach and not just by the book.

Karel is a great professional with in-the-trenches experience from many projects. The training was well prepared, with plenty of tips and materials for the certification exam.
Pavel Martinásek, Product Owner, TecAlliance
Two days full of experience sharing, exercises, and examples that Karel facilitated using the most powerful Scrum tool -- self-organization. We discussed a range of topics and found the best answers, approaches, and solutions ourselves, while getting feedback from Karel.
