Applying Flow Metrics for Scrum

Learn about Applying Flow Metrics for Scrum

Supercharge your scrum using the power of flow metrics.

Is your team answering the same three questions at the Daily Scrum but not seeing any work move? Are you overcommitting to every sprint and stuck with endless carry-over? Do your retrospectives feel like the same conversations with little impact?

Then your Scrum Team needs Flow Metrics! In this course, you will learn how to leverage four simple data points to help your Scrum Team break the cycle of endless status and move towards informed decisions, accurate planning, and actionable improvements.

Applying Flow Metrics for Scrum will teach you not only how to identify how much work to plan but also how to accurately forecast when individual work will be done in a Scrum Team’s context. Predict delivery, deliver on time.

Learning Outcomes

After the course, learners will be able to:

  • Leverage metrics for accurate Sprint Planning
  • Use forecasts in Daily Scrum to organize around work in progress
  • Track progress toward critical dates and deliverables
  • Identify opportunities for measurable team improvements
  • Tools for Product Backlog Item refinement to increase flow

Who Should Attend

The Applying Flow Metrics for Scrum course is for anyone who wants to leverage data to improve their Scrum practices. This includes developers, testers, Scrum Masters, Product Owners or leaders who want better transparency into the health and performance of their team.

  • Application to Scrum Events (Sprint Planning, Daily Scrum, Sprint Review, and Sprint Retrospective)
  • Flow Analytics: Cumulative Flow Diagrams (CFDs), Scatterplots and Monte Carlo
