Explore why Scrum arose from the belief that software development is not predictable and requires discovery of products, technology, and relationships among people change over time, contrasting with waterfall failures.
Explore scrum's five events and three roles: product owner, development team, and scrum master, and how the sprint backlog turns items into a usable increment from the product backlog.
Explore the five scrum values—commitment, focus, openness, respect, and courage—and how they shape team dedication, sprint focus, transparent communication, respectful collaboration, and the courage to learn and adapt.
Explore the five Scrum events—sprint, sprint planning, daily scrum, sprint review, and sprint retrospective—and how time-boxing, the sprint goal, and the sprint backlog guide planning, execution, and inspection.
Explore the three scrum roles: product owner, development team, and scrum master, and how they collaborate to deliver value via backlog refinement and sprint planning, review, and retrospective.
Learn about the three Scrum artifacts: the product backlog, the sprint backlog, and the increment, and how backlog refinement, sprint planning, and a definition of done ensure a usable increment.
Form a network of talent with two-day iterations, swarming on backlog items via feature maps, guided by open space principles and self-organization to stay in sync.
