Reading Emotions in a Scrum Project
Faces as a Compass in Agile Everyday Life
Agile methods like Scrum thrive on transparency. But real transparency goes beyond tickets and boards — it shows in emotions.
Facial expressions often reveal hidden blockers, silent doubts, and unspoken trust long before words are exchanged.
This book offers a practical guide to observing emotional signals in agile teamwork:
- How to recognize uncertainty during Planning
- How to sense disengagement in Daily meetings
- How to read hidden feedback during Reviews
- How to create safe spaces during Retrospectives
With concrete scenes, reflection questions, and microformats for everyday use, this book is aimed at Scrum Masters, Product Owners, and agile teams who want to develop not just their processes, but their human connection.
Emotions are not an add-on. They are the operating system of every agile team.
