I've noted that you've been involved in translating world-class agile works in Taiwan, including "Zombie Scrum", and worked with Mr. Lee Shi-Qin from the Taiwan Artificial Intelligence Association on this project. Your collaboration led to exploring AI from a Scrum perspective despite initial hesitations due to a lack of expertise in AI. This experience broadened your perspective to evaluate creative outcomes in a new domain not primarily focused on AI.
Within a year and a half of becoming a Certified Scrum Trainer (CST), I have successfully coached 235 CEOs to achieve their Certified ScrumMaster (CSM) certification. Many of them have demonstrated exceptional performance within their organizations, promoting Agile thinking and embedding it into their corporate cultures, thereby creating remarkable Agile success stories. The establishment of the Global Top Agile CEO Award aims to honor these outstanding CEOs, showcase their achievements to the world, and inspire other corporate leaders from around the globe to join the movement.
There are two main reasons I was invited to speak about Agile at the Civil Service Human Resource Development Center. The first reason is that a CEO who is also a Certified ScrumMaster (CSM) was recommended by a section chief, Ms. Chen Meng-li, from National Cheng Kung University. This CEO attended a course at the Civil Service Human Resource Development Center and strongly recommended that the organizers promote such Agile courses, as he believes that civil servants should not be disconnected from the management practices of the private sector.
Agile is easy to learn but hard to master. There are still blind spots that remain irrespective of how long you have been learning agility. Therefore, when I started working on CSM co-training with CST in 2019, I took on the challenge of translating Agile videos of different depths.
