This online event on July 26 is where you can bring your questions or things that you would love to share with the group. Maybe you have a burning question about scaling, forecasting, user stories, or different parts of the Scrum roles? Helen Meek and Benjamin Cooke will use the power of the group to share knowledge and learn from each other. No question is too big or small.
