Mission

At Scrum Professionals, we are catalysts for change, empowering organizations and individuals to thrive in a rapidly evolving world. With trust as our foundation, we prioritize autonomy, mastery, and purpose in our work with clients and within our own organization.

• People First - we express our leadership through the relationships we build with people: our clients, our community, the society we operate in and our team. These relationships define our success and measures our impact
• Relentless & Radical Innovation - We view the world as a playground for innovation. From the work we do for our clients to how we shape our organisation, we continuously seek creative ways to deliver greater value
• Embrace Uncertainty & Change - We are here to remind the world that human beings are made for change, and that it is only by confronting uncertainty that we grow and unlock our full potential. We embody this philosophy in our work and leadership

Practices

To achieve our mission and to make our principles concrete, we are guided by the following principles:

• Leaders in Scrum - We believe Scrum is the most effective way to help organizations create meaningful change.
• Ambassadors of Scrum Facilitators - Our organization is a living prototype of our vision, which we own and build together.
• Driven by People Value - We measure success through the value our clients, community, and society experience.
• Challenge the Status Quo - We are change agents. Change is our strength.
• Financial Health Supports Personal Growth - While we are idealists we are also realists. We balance well-being with financial sustainability, leveraging innovation to maximize value while prioritizing the well-being of our team.

History

Scrum Facilitators was born in 2020 when Chee-Hong Hsia and Jasper Alblas, both seasoned Professional Scrum Trainers, started collaborating in the Netherlands. They sought to compete with larger training brands by uniting under a single banner. Over time, they invited other independent trainers to join them, steadily expanding the team and their network both nationally and internationally.

As their collaboration deepened, together with Ziryan Salayi, they encountered recurring challenges in their consulting work: high-potential individuals constrained by bureaucratic systems and external hires lacking essential attitude and skills. This inspired the idea of building an organisation offering holistic, people-first solutions grounded in autonomy, mastery, and purpose.

In 2023, this vision culminated in the founding of Scrum Professionals, an organization integrating these principles into every aspect of its operations, from hiring to daily activities.
