Description
User stories are a critical part of product owner responsibility and agile software development. Why? Because the user story delivers the value to customers directly. But how? That's exactly what we will cover as part of this course.
Why is this Course?
When I started with the role of Product Owner, I failed in my first attempt. Most of my focus was on the on-time delivery and not giving enough time for creating user stories. With consultation from one of the experienced product owner, I started investing 40-50% of my total effort to write good user stories with clear acceptance criteria. That is the single most beneficial task that yield result for me. As a product owner, it not only gave better control over delivery predictability but also the velocity (users stories delivered per sprint) of the scrum team improved. So I created this course to help other Product Owners, Scrum Masters, and Scrum teams.

Instructor
Hello there, my name is Malay Biswal.
I focus on explaining difficult concepts in the simplest form possible.
I don’t like jargon and superficial concepts rather I prefer layman terminology and fundamental clarity.
By profession I am a Wireless Telecom Engineer, Project Manager, Product Owner and by passion an instructor.
I started helping out my friends with the concepts they are not familiar about and within very less time, I need to maintain a schedule to attend all requests.
I realized that I am getting more interest, knowledge and more over I feel contented after each session. That’s the moment, I got my passion!
I have been teaching and coaching for last 20 years (face-to-face and online tutoring mode).
My students include 5 year old kids, school going children, engineers and IT/Telecom professionals.
I love Mathematics, wireless telecom technologies, project management, on-line tutoring and all related things.
In my opinion as long as you do not enjoy learning a subject/topic you can’t master the related skills.
Hence my approach is to learn new things, experiment with it, get to fundamentals and then explain it in layman’s terminology.
So join me on Udemy to learn diverse skills in a unique and simplified way!
