What would perfect look like for a single team Scrum?
“Perfect is that the Scrum Team independently delivers
the most valuable feature into the hands of the
customers at least every Sprint without delay.”

25. 25
What would perfect look like for multiple team Scrum?
“Perfect is that all teams can independently deliver any
feature at least every Spint and change direction
without delay or additional cost.“

How does 1 team coordinate?
How should multiple teams coordinate?

There is no coordination Role?
That is perfect.
No, so do not put such a role in the design…
because once it is in the design, it will be used.
