ScrumMaster Nicole Forsythe walks us through how the teams in the Iowa Startup Accelerator are using Agile to build their company culture and work effectively. You also get to learn what the word scrummaster means.

"Some people laugh when I call myself a ScrumMaster - 'is that a real thing?'" Forsythe said. "It is - it's very real, it's very powerful, and it's very very fun."

Read more about the partnership with Kirkwood Community College that embedded ScrumMasters in the ISA here: 'Exponentially' spreading agile in the Corridor.
