Overview

Scrum works in some cases is not designed for all contexts.

Scrum’s foundations is missing what is required to enable it to adapt to the context in which it is being used.

The concept of Scrum is solid. But not all teams are, or should be, cross-functional. And many can’t run in uninterrupted sprints. 

Scrum is immutable for two reasons:

  • It doesn’t include how to tailor it in an effective way
  • Being immutable protects the Scrum brand when people try to adapt it unsuccessfully.

 

This session shows how to enable variation in the Scrum definition to make it easier and more effective to use while avoiding the stagnation that often happens.

Takeaway: learn how Scrum can work for you via simple adaptation to your context.
