Inspired by Sharon Bowmans’ Training From the Back of the Room's 6 trumps, this session will explore how Brain Science can keep Scrum Events live, active, and worthwhile.
To get the most out of the Scrum Events, I tried a lot of things. I experimented with formats and setups, did Facilitator training, and looked for interesting games and Sprint Retrospective formats. But I never looked further than that—until I did the Training From the Back of the Room and was intrigued by how the brain works in a training and learning setting.

Learning more about the human brain, I figured out that one could also use Brain Science to keep Scrum Events alive and worthwhile. For example, research shows that our brain 'disconnects' after 10 minutes when nothing changes. In a training setting, you would use this knowledge to change the setting regularly or to make short exercises or chunks of information. In a Scrum event, you could also use this knowledge.
How? That's what we will explore during this session.

In this session, you will learn about neuroscience and how to use it to activate your brain and make your Scrum Events alive and active. Bring your Brain!
