Facilitated by Ami T.
A new quarter is a good time to reset, especially when teams have drifted into habits that look busy but no longer feel truly agile. Ceremonies may still be happening, boards are moving, and velocity gets discussed, yet people are not always aligned on what Agile and Scrum are meant to achieve.
That is why our April 2026 Agile103 session, “SAgile & Scrum Refresher (Q2 Kickoff),” is built as a practical reset for teams, leaders, and practitioners who want to start Q2 with more clarity and better working habits.
Why a refresher matters at the start of Q2
The Agile Manifesto still anchors the conversation around customer value, collaboration, and responding to change. Its core values and principles remain a useful reminder that agility is about mindset and outcomes, not just ceremonies or templates. Atlassian also frames Agile as a flexible, iterative approach centered on collaboration, continuous delivery, and adaptability, which makes a refresher especially valuable when teams feel overloaded or overly process heavy.
For organizations working at scale, SAFe adds another layer. The Scaled Agile Framework describes Essential SAFe as the simplest starting point for Agile Release Trains and emphasizes Lean Agile principles as the foundation for coordinated delivery. This event will help participants reconnect Scrum level practices with broader team and program level alignment.
What we will revisit in this session
We will revisit the fundamentals that often make the biggest difference when practiced well, including clear Scrum roles, healthy team collaboration, and purposeful ceremonies. Atlassian’s Scrum resources highlight the importance of distinct roles, effective ceremonies, and continuous reflection, while PMI’s Agile resources reinforce that agility is about adaptability, not blind adherence to one method.
You can expect practical discussion around:
- How Scrum roles should support ownership and flow
- How Agile teams build trust and cross functional collaboration
- Where scaling practices help, and where they add unnecessary complexity
- What teams can adjust now to make Q2 more focused and sustainable
Related materials will also be available in the Agile103 Resources Library and you can revisit earlier sessions through the Agile103 Event Archive.
