Hello and welcome to the Dealing with Uncooperative and Difficult Scrum Team Members course.

It is not uncommon to come across people at the workplace that can make your job more complicated than it has to be. These individuals are disrespectful, damaging, or just reluctant to work as part of a Scrum team.

When you’re a Scrum Master, dealing with such individuals gets much more challenging. As you have no formal authority over them, it is more likely that you will face resistance and challenging behavior.

In this course, you will find several strategies you can use to deal with aggressive, uncooperative, difficult, and dominant Scrum Team Members.

I will show you some great ways the Scrum Master can help deal with such people, even if the management supports such behaviors.

You will understand what the Scrum Master can do if all his efforts fail in this regard.

If you already have to deal with this kind of situation, this course is for you. If you are just starting your Scrum career, I’m pretty sure that sooner or later you will also encounter it.

I have even had a situation where management tried to address it, it worked for a while, and then the difficult person reverted to their old style. 

This course will help you in this ongoing battle.

Why take this course?

  • This is the Scrum Masters TOOLBOX – tools you can use in your work.
  • Be prepared to apply these strategies to your team and become a confident Scrum Master.
  • Understand the difference between different types of “problem-people” and how to deal with them.
  • Learn from a Product Owner and Scrum Master who applies Agile practices daily.
  • Learn how to apply strategies from the ground up with a focus on quality.
  • You have nothing to lose, allow yourself to learn something new and powerful.
