Claude, ChatGPT, and other conversational AI tools are quickly becoming a standard part of the Agile practitioner’s toolkit. This session picks up where our Copilot session left off and focuses specifically on Claude — how it differs from Microsoft’s ecosystem tools, and where it shines for Agile work.

We’ll walk through real, hands-on examples: turning a messy meeting transcript into a clean retrospective summary, drafting a sprint review script, generating and refining user stories from a stakeholder conversation, and using Claude as a thinking partner when preparing for a difficult stakeholder conversation.

Learning Objectives

Understand what makes Claude different from other AI assistants and when to reach for it.
Practice writing prompts that get useful, Agile-specific output on the first or second try.
Use Claude to draft user stories, acceptance criteria, retrospective summaries, and stakeholder communications.
Learn a simple workflow for turning a raw meeting recording or transcript into structured, usable notes.
Discuss the boundary between “using AI to think faster” and “outsourcing your judgment.”

Who Should Attend?

Scrum Masters, Agile Coaches, Product Owners, Project and Program Managers, and anyone who wants a practical, low-jargon introduction to using Claude in day-to-day Agile work. No prior AI experience required.

Key Takeaways

A working mental model for what Claude is good at versus what still needs a human.
A small library of reusable prompts for common Agile artifacts.
Confidence to try Claude on a real work task within the next week.
A clear-eyed view of the risks (over-reliance, hallucination, confidentiality) alongside the benefits.
