"Since 1993 when the first Scrum team increased velocity by 500% in the third sprint I have been helping create hyperproductive teams. It is very hard to do this without expert training and coaching. In fact, the best data on Agile teams show only 42% are successful and the other 58% are late, over budget, with unhappy customers or deliver nothing. Clearly, people have a lot of questions that need good answers to turn these failing teams into a success story. Valerio has completed our Registered Scrum Training Program by spending a week working with me and I know he knows all the tips and tricks for enabling great teams. Reading through this book you will find consistently good advice for tackling some of your toughest problems. I recommend it."
