  1.   The Scrum Development Team | Agile Scrum Master  Certification - World Of Agile    The Development Team consists of professionals who do the work of  delivering a potentially releasable Increment of “Done” product at the end  of each Sprint. Only members of the Development Team create the  Increment.    Development Teams are structured and empowered by the organization  to organize and manage their own work. The resulting synergy optimizes  the Development Team’s overall efficiency and effectiveness.     What are Development Team Characteristics?    Development Teams have the following characteristics:     ● They are self-organizing. No one (not even the Scrum Master) tells  the Development Team how to turn Product Backlog into Increments  of potentially releasable functionality;   ● Development Teams are cross-functional, with all of the skills as a  team necessary to create a product Increment; i.e. they should have  all skills necessary to complete all work necessary to deliver value to  customers.  ● Scrum recognizes no titles for Development Team members other  than Developer, regardless of the work being performed by the  person; there are no exceptions to this rule;   ● Scrum​ recognizes no sub-teams in the Development Team,  regardless of particular domains that need to be addressed like  testing or business analysis; there are no exceptions to this rule;   ● Individual Development Team members may have specialized skills  and areas of focus, but accountability belongs to the Development  Team as a whole.    

  2. It is really no different from building any conventional team in theory. Key  modifications to this rule are as follows    ● Team members need to collaborate more than conventional teams  since the team is self-managing.  ● There is nobody to tell them what to do and that they have to  release a releasable code every interaction which will force them to  collaborate a lot more  ● Therefore, naturally you will look at team members who are good at  working in teams and have good communication skills.  ● You will need specialists of course, however, you will need more  generalists who are versatile and can do multiple activities e.g. code,  test, if required jump into areas which are not his/her own but need  help etc.  ● You will need highly motivated individuals who can make decisions  and stand by the decisions and commitments and strive to meet the  goals.  ● This essentially means you need to coach the team and trust them  to deliver. Thus they will definitely promote a right attitude.  ● One must remember that they will always not be successful.  Therefore, make it “Safe” for people to make mistakes so long as they  are learning from their mistakes and learning as they go along.    Building Empowered Teams    Key concept here is “Empowerment”. An empowered team is a team which  acts on its own and within. Therefore, Empowerment is    ● Responsibility and ownership and ​NOT throwing rule books out of  the window​.  ● Working independently towards common objective and ​NOT  bypassing​ everyone who say NO  ● The team can understand reasons behind a decision so that they  can apply sound judgement in decision making. It is ​not always  doing the fun part​ of the job and ignoring the rest.  ● It’s about weighing the impact of the decisions on stakeholders and  not freedom to unilaterally make decisions​ that impact others. 

  3. ● It is about ​making tradeoffs​ while making decisions that impact  others.  Therefore “Empowerment” does not mean you throw out the rule book and  do whatever you want.    Development Team Size     ● Optimal Development Team size is small enough to remain nimble  and large enough to complete significant work within a ​Sprint​.   ● Fewer than three Development Team members decrease interaction  and results in smaller productivity gains. Smaller Development  Teams may encounter skill constraints during the Sprint, causing the  Development Team​ to be unable to deliver a potentially releasable  Increment.   ● Having more than nine members requires too much coordination.  Large Development Teams generate too much complexity for an  empirical process to manage.   ● The ​Product Owner​ and ​Scrum Master​ roles are not included in this  count unless they are also executing the work of the ​Sprint Backlog​.    For More Information, Follow the Links below-    Website - ​https://worldofagile.com/  Facebook - ​https://www.facebook.com/Fascinating.World.Of.Agile/  Twitter -​ https://twitter.com/WorldOfAgile  LinkedIn - ​https://www.linkedin.com/company/world-of-agile/  YouTube - ​https://www.youtube.com/c/WorldOfAgile      Tags - ​Scrum Master Certification​, ​Scrum Master Certification Mumbai​, ​Scrum Master  Certification Pune​, ​Certified Scrum Master Training in Delhi​, ​Scrum Master Certification  Kolkata​, ​CSPO Certification​, ​Agile Scrum Master Certification Online​, ​Advanced Certified  Scrum Master Training​, ​DevOps Training​, ​Prince2 Certification​, ​PMP Certification​,​ ITIL  Certification
