Everybody wants to Scale Scrum. So you have a couple of Scrum Teams that are working in adjacent areas and you're starting to face some challenges in delivering value in a coordinated integrative way. This is more or less the time you started searching for "scaling agile" "scaling scrum" and exploring your options.

When people first look at the Scrum framework, they often see the roles and the events first. They see only the structure of Scrum; who wears the hats and when. But Scrum and the Agile methodologies it builds on are so much more. Scrum is a great example of a motivation framework. And that makes sense.

Scrum has been around for a while, they say. The Scrum Guide holds the definition of Scrum, they say. The first, official version of the Scrum Guide was released in February 2010. So, how was Scrum defined before 2010 then? What else happened along the road to the way that Scrum is defined and represented?

These six essential traits are indicative of Scrum coming to life. Every case of Scrum is unique.

“Scrum” is a phenomenal subject – i.e. if you are familiar with it. As an Agile project manager, I have seen my fair share of so-called “Scrum Masters” and “Agile Experts” claiming to be masters of their craft. The truth, however, is that they don’t know a lot of things about Scrum and Agile. Introduction – Why Scrum?
