Compared to Scrum, Kanban is a young work-management method. Anderson best articulated its application to software development, in 2013, in the foundational book Kanban: Successful Evolutionary Change for Your Technology Business, and its adoption hasn’t been as universal as Scrum’s during the early days of Agile software development.

And so if you show up and like you say, “Hey, I want to adopt Agile,” but you know, you’re not familiar with the strategies or Agile governance strategies or such, right? So, you think SAFE, Large-Scale Scrum maybe, although I don’t know that fits in that category, Scrum as a model, XP as a model, and things like that.

They did a great job of getting the message out Scrum and the Scrum certification did a great job of getting the message out. Does it mean that we start Doing Scrum, right? Because those are the things that fundamentally get in the way how we govern, right, how we deal with cross cutting concerns.

I wasn’t around when things like XP and Scrum were invented, but I have been lucky enough to spend time with many of the original signers of the Manifesto. That having weekly planning cadences; daily standups, reviews, and retrospectives would give people a reason to get in the same room and collaborate. Why is it so difficult?

Agile is an incremental and iterative approach for developing software products. The most common small team Agile methodologies are Scrum and XP, maybe Kanban, or a combination of the three.

So we start with culture, maybe we go to practices and then all those teaming strategies and dependencies and governance and metrics and all that stuff that we struggle with all the time will just kind of work itself out. So everybody here, probably a lot of our scrum masters are that way. So think about scrum.
