Join me as I talk to Gunther Verheyen, about self-aware leadership from the perspective of Gunther's area of specialty, Scrum, with an emphasis on humanising the workplace with Scrum.
Gunther Verheyen calls himself an independent Scrum Caretaker on a journey of humanizing the workplace with Scrum. He is a longtime Scrum practitioner who started applying Scrum in 2003. He has published two acclaimed books about Scrum and was the partner of Ken Schwaber (co-creator of Scrum) as Director of the “Professional Scrum” series at Scrum.org.
Gunther created the acclaimed book Scrum – A Pocket Guide in 2013, with a second edition published in 2019 and a third edition in 2021. Ken Schwaber recommends it as “the best description of Scrum available”. In 2020 Gunther published 97 Things Every Scrum Practitioner Should Know; a collection of essays from field experts across the world. Several translations of his work are available.
When not travelling for Scrum and humanizing the workplace, Gunther lives and works in Antwerp (Belgium).
