The personal stories from the author provide all the proof and inspiration you need to start your journey towards happiness.
As a Scrum Master, I am very experienced in applying Agile practices and tools at work to improve team collaboration. When I started reading A Scrum Master’s Guide to Happiness I got inspired to apply the Journey Planner tool for our big challenge at home: buying a new house in a very competitive housing market within the next six months. The visual tool invited my wife and me to discuss our mutual expectations and how we could best collaborate. Such a challenge could easily endanger communication, but the quality of our conversations actually improved! And yes, we also managed to find a new home in time.
I loved reading this book, full of practical tips and exercises. This book is highly engaging and practical and gives you an idea of how to bring more personal and professional happiness to your life. It helps you define, plan, and execute your plans on the road to happiness. This is all done so that you want to grab a paper and do the exercises; it guides you step by step and adds checks and valuable tips.
Herman made this book very personal by sharing his challenges, learnings, and questions he answered himself along the way. This book is a great life companion, a practical guide that not only teaches you about the principles of happiness but activates you towards the realization of it—highly recommended for anyone seeking a genuine and transformative journey toward increased happiness.
