Bridge the Gap Between Process and Tech

What happens when technical conversations go over your head? The age-old debate asks: "Should a Scrum Master be technical?" While you don't need to be a coder, having technical literacy is a superpower.

This one-day IT for Scrum Masters (IT4SM) workshop is designed to give you a solid foundation in IT and software engineering. We help you bridge the gap between people, process, and technology, allowing you to spot risks earlier and engage confidently in discussions about architecture and delivery .

What You Will Learn

This workshop won't turn you into a Developer, but it will equip you with the structure and language to understand their world. You will learn to ask better questions and foster stronger collaboration.

Core Topics

Using a "curated set of technical topics" combined with your input, we explore :

  • Modern Workflows: Understanding CI/CD pipelines, DevOps, and deployment strategies.
  • Architecture: Demystifying concepts like Cloud-Native, Legacy systems, and APIs.
  • Risk Management: How to spot technical dependencies and bottlenecks before they derail a Sprint.
  • Quality: Understanding code quality and technical debt.
  • Collaboration: How to guide technical discussions without overstepping your boundaries.

A Unique Training Experience: Artful Participation

This workshop is built around the principle of Artful Participation. While we bring deep technical expertise, the specific content of the day is shaped by you.

Whether you are struggling with legacy systems or curious about the cloud, we adapt the agenda in real-time to your learning goals. No two workshops are the same; each session is co-created with the group.
