[CLOSED] Win a copy of Scrum by Dr Jeff Sutherland

Win a copy of Scrum by Dr Jeff Sutherland - Win! Scrum by Dr Jeff Sutherland What does it take for the All Blacks to win a test match? It all comes down to the set piece, go forward ball from the scrum. Similarly, efficiently orchestrated set pieces can make all the difference in the business game. In his latest book, Scrum – a revolutionary approach to building teams, beating deadlines and boosting productivity, Dr Jeff Sutherland outlines how every organisation, whatever its size, can come to grips with delivering a product or service on time and on budget. Used by companies including Google and Amazon, as well as hospitals, the US military and even the FBI, Dr Sutherland’s Scrum approach is designed to define precisely what a business is seeking to achieve, how to prepare the right team for the job, and how to monitor progress until completion. Scrum is filled with real world case studies, such as the FBI’s attempts to digitise its records. The organisation’s first attempt failed after four years and more than $400 million spent. Just over a year later, the FBI unveiled a functioning system at less than a tenth of the first project’s cost and employing just a tenth of the staff. Backed by practical examples, the Scrum approach is intended to change how we think about the fundamentals of successful management and how to get things done, however everyday or ambitious, however small or large an organisation may be.
