Key Factors for Succeeding or Failing with Agile The ‘Link’ Factors for Success or failure are related to the roles within Scrum: • Product Owner • ScrumMaster • Team
Weak links in the Scrum chain cause failure. Product Owner Detached and not involved. ScrumMaster not 100% committed. Team unable to self organize. Scrum by itself does not fail.
Strong links in the Scrum chain cause Success. Product Owner is committed and involved. ScrumMaster is 110% committed. Team able to self organize. Scrum, if the framework is followed, it will succeed.
As a ScrumMaster, you will have to contend with: The tyranny of the waterfall; The illusion of command and control; The belief in magic; and, The era of opacity.
The Zen of SCRUM So simple, anyone can implement it! So easy, all can benefit! So subtle, few achieve transcendent performance … How is it that project manager does nothing, and achieves everything? Interlocking principles emerge product out of chaos Yet when novice removes one Scrum principle -- engine never fires … Who can know why? ScrumMaster must understand deeply and practice rigorously. Only then will team members say, “This experience changed my life!” http://jeffsutherland.com/scrum/2004_08_01_archive.html
