“   Scrum is an agile framework for
              completing complex projects. Scrum
              originally was formalized for software
              development projects, but works well for
              any complex, innovative scope of work.
              The possibilities are endless. The Scrum
              framework is deceptively simple.

              …No matter which impetus stops work,
Scrum         Scrum ensures that the most valuable
              work has been completed when the

Define a Scrum Master?

“   The Scrum Master is responsible for
              ensuring Scrum is understood and
              enacted. Scrum Masters do this by
              ensuring that the Scrum Team adheres to
              Scrum theory, practices, and rules. The
              Scrum Master is a servant-leader for the
              Scrum Team.

Scrum         The Scrum Master helps those outside the
              Scrum Team understand which of their
Master        interactions with the Scrum Team are
              helpful and which aren’t. The Scrum
              Master helps everyone change these
Defined       interactions to maximize the value created



                                                    “”
              by the Scrum Team.
