Sharing with everyone mindmaps I made using the key takeaways from “The Epic Guide to Agile”

Hi Everybody, I made a couple of mindmaps using the key takeaways from the book “The Epic Guide to Agile: More Business Value on a Predictable Schedule with Scrum”, and would love to share them with all of you. Some of you may have read this book or heard about it. It was published in 2019 and it’s a modern guide on how to use Agile, specifically Scrum, in the most effective way. After reading this book I loved it so much that I decided to make a mindmap to help myself understand and internalize the key information better. There are 4 parts and 30 chapters in the book and the author Dave Todaro provided some key takeaways at the end of each chapter. I ended up making a huge mindmap with all that information so I broke it down into 4 smaller mindmaps, each containing the key takeaways from one part of the book. Here is the book’s Table of Contents (my mindmaps are structured in the same way): Part 1 (Mindmap 1): Understanding Scrum Fundamentals Chapter 1 - Introduction to High-Performance Teamwork Chapter 2 - Scrum's 10 Guideposts Chapter 3 - The Product Backlog Chapter 4 - User Stories Chapter 5 - The Sprint Chapter 6 - Scrum Ceremonies Chapter 7 - Scrum Roles Chapter 8 - The Sprint Backlog Chapter 9 - The Product Part 2 (Mindmap 2): Understanding Agile Software Construction Chapter 10 - Introduction to Agile Software Construction Chapter 11 - Creating a Shippable Increment Requires Team Test Environment Chapter 12 - Managing Source Code Properly Avoids Pain When "Life Happens" Chapter 13 - Automated Unit Testing: The Foundation of Code Quality Chapter 14 - Acceptance Testing: Making Sure Everything Works Together Chapter 15 - Agile Architecture and Technical Design Part 3 (Mindmap 3): Laying the Groundwork Chapter 16 - Here Be Dragons: Preparing for the Challenges You'll Face Chapter 17 - Forming Your Pilot Scrum Team Chapter 18 - Your Team's Path to Excellence Chapter 19 - Creating the Initial Product Backlog Chapter 20 - Estimating the Size of the Product Backlog Chapter 21 - Creating an Initial Schedule Projection Chapter 22 - Splitting User Stories for Increased Momentum Chapter 23 - Final Preparations Before Your First Sprint Part 4 (Mindmap 4): Building the Product Chapter 24 - Determining Sprint Logistics Chapter 25 - Planning the Sprint Chapter 26 - Orchestrating the Daily Work of the Sprint Chapter 27 - A "Zero-Defects" Approach to Dealing with Bugs Chapter 28 - Providing Transparency and Getting Feedback with the Sprint Review Chapter 29 - Driving Continuous Improvement with the Sprint Retrospective Chapter 30 - Confidently Releasing Your Product into Production In this Dropbox folder you will find the 4 mindmaps (in PNG image format). https://www.dropbox.com/sh/jxzxbnb0em8h1x5/AAC-2U2D-bLBnqIv42gx9ztra?dl=0 I also included in the folder the original XMind files that I created (XMind is a desktop and mobile app for mind mapping). This way you will be able to edit the 4 mindmaps to suit your own learning. To be able to do that, I included the XMind desktop app installers for both macOS and Windows in the Dropbox folder as well. Mind mapping helped me tremendously in absorbing the key information from the book, and I'm happy to share these mindmaps with you guys. Hope you find some value from them. Finally, if anyone is hiring, I'm currently seeking a remote Scrum Master, QA Tester or Customer Support Representative job..

Gratefully yours, Qing
