Presenters: Ralph Hippolyte, Patrice Petit, Philippe Houssin - Taken from Scrum and High Level Sport Practices - Linking the Scrum approach to high level sport practices. Putting the human factor as the key to success, Scrum highlights the transformation of small successes into permanent improvement. In a constantly evolving world, there is an exponential need for innovation and changes. Today’s context increases the pressure and the stress levels. Furthermore, the increasingly challenging targets create the need for permanent adaptation and round the clock changes. The impact of high level stress leads to burnouts. http://www.agilbee.com/lab/scrumgathering_2012_talent_leadership.html
