Lavaneesh Gautam, a professional scrum trainer, shares his journey to becoming a Scrum Master and PST with guest host PST Ryan Ripley

Gautam first encountered Scrum while working as a developer/business analyst in a fintech company in 2011. He appreciated its transparency and visual management, which motivated him to become a Scrum Master in 2014.

His interest in Scrum was sparked by the limitations he observed in the waterfall method, particularly its command-and-control culture, which diminished job satisfaction.
