We provide Digital Development & Project Management Services, Scrum Masters and Product Owners to help organisations embrace an Agile approach to product delivery.
As more and more companies migrate from traditional software delivery methodologies to Agile methodologies, the roles played by the members of those departments changes. In Scrum there are only three roles defined the Scrum Master, the Product Owner, and the Development Team.
One of the biggest and hardest changes to understand is the switch from Project Manager to Scrum Master. Contrary to popular belief, the Scrum Master is not a traditional project manager. That role in Scrum is shared between the Scrum Master, the Product Owner and the Development Team. The Scrum Master instead helps build a bridge between the Development Team, the Product Owner and the business and encourages collaboration, empowerment and self-organisation, so as to enable the most effective delivery.
At Xcite Developments we can provide highly experienced Certified Scrum Masters who are able to lead your development teams in implementing you delivery needs and expectations.
We will work with you to help you implement Agile development processes in your business and explain how they will work and how they will benefit you. By working with you our Agile Consultancy team can help you improve every aspect of your company’s operations not just IT delivery.
We will hold your hands throughout the whole process and can provide onsite coaching and training.
We can provide high calibre scrum teams for projects of all sizes and complexities. This ranges from the provision of integrated multi-skilled teams to the appointment of single scrum masters.
Agile Coaching helps teams grow strong in applying agile practices to their work. It takes time to adopt these changes, so you can’t do this effectively as a traditional trainer who arrives and delivers words of agile wisdom and then makes a quick exit. An agile coach needs to spend time with agile teams to help them to become more aware of their workflow and how to collaborate effectively.
