Scrum Master Helper Suite

We have come to you with a suite of three apps that will help improve the lives of Scrum Masters everywhere . We are quite delighted that we could bundle all three ideas together to take care of the body (healthy meals via Chef4TheWeek) ,the mind (via Daily Stoic Meditation) as well as the daily work (via Scrum Master Assistant).

The Scrum Master Assistant app will help in the day to day job of the Scrum Master. The app suggests a daily tip to improve upon any of the skills required to be a good Scrum Master. The app will display the current sprint event dates and times .Based on the previous sprint retrospective feedback it will suggest to you an improvement plan that the Scrum Master can use for this current sprint, always keeping in mind that the Scrum Master plays the role of a Facilitator,Coach,Mentor,Trainer,Counsellor or Change Agent. And if in any doubt the ChatBot plays the role of a senior experienced Scrum Master who can always answer questions and give advice. Give it a try here : link

The second app Daily Stoic Meditation will help the Scrum Master use Stoicism as an effective tool for personal growth as well as for becoming a better leader . This philosophy promotes personal responsibility, self-control, and self-discipline. By modeling emotional resilience, leaders can inspire their teams to remain calm and focused in the face of adversity, and to work together to find solutions to complex problems. Stoicism also promotes a willingness to learn from mistakes and to embrace failure as an opportunity for growth. And as such it goes hand in hand with the Agile Principles and Scrum Values. Even well-known personalities like Bill Gates are said to leverage stoicism. Our app Daily Stoic Meditation encourages you to take a moment to reflect on the daily affirmation and Stoic Thought of the Day to inculcate these values and philosophies. And if in any need of help use the Stoic-HelperBot to chat with some of the greatest Stoic Philosphers like Marcus Aurelius, Epictetus, Zeno or Cleanthes. Give it a try here : link

The third app Chef4TheWeek will help organize our Scrum Masters home-life much better. By planning nutritious, seasonal meals which fit their dietary requirements all within the weekly budget this app will help keep our Scrum Leader in tip-top shape. Challenges that were faced when building this app was that we dont have access to the up-to-date prices or current date to figure out the current season in the users location and hence we were working with data that the model had available to it.

Going forward the plan is to expand on these Apps in the following manner:
For the Scrum Master Assistant app: 1) Integrate calender and Jira dashboard links for sprint tracking and smart scheduling. 2) Using AWS Lex and Polly to interact via voice commands during meetings to automate common tasks like taking minutes or scheduling meeting or even creating Jira Tasks . 3) Have separate tabs per team to help out Scrum Masters who would be playing the role of a Servant-Leader in different teams . Maybe in the future also develop a sister app tailored to the Scrum Product Owner role too .

For the Daily Stoic Meditation the next logical step would be to find a way to add music or video streaming for meditation music.

For the Chef4TheWeek app it is currently limited by not having up to date price data for ingredients so this limitation must be overcome as the next step.
