The situation
In our role as SCRUM-Master we every day carry our branded and sticker personalised paper book always with
us and our notebook for Jira and Confluence. We are prepared for our next agile meeting. Every tab is
opened in advanced. Well done…
But there are always some questions left:
- What did we decide or agree last time?
- Which topics we didn't discuss or fell down last time in retrospective?
- Where can I find my observation about the team dynamics I wrote down?
- Why can't I search for information in my notebook?
This is where this digital tool "Agile Notebook" comes in place.
It basically must:
- Help the SCRUM-Masters to assist in and simplify their work.
- Act as a central point of aggregated information with neither storing sensitive data nor storing them twice.
- Automate time consuming or repeating tasks.

How does it help to coach the team?
- I can make self assessments, resume all my observations and set goals for myself and the team.
- I see historical data about gone sprints, the evolvement of the teams and derive actions from it.
- I have a single place where I can see last sprint goals, action items and decisions we made or team rules and agreements.
- I see meaningful KPIs out of Jira without using Excel sheets, Power BI knowledge or extra coding support.
- I can immediately provide team's KPIs on management demand.
