This is the third post in a series related to the Zen of Scrum presentation available on SlideShare.net.
In the previous post I wrote about Scrum's five values. Now it's time to list the roles, events and artifacts defined by Scrum.
Some of the things associated with Scrum is actually XP practices and not dictated by Scrum at all, though they have become de-facto standards and considered best practice by many.
While most people know about daily scrums, sprints and poker planning, and others only associate Scrum with post-its scattered on a whiteboard, few are aware of the five Scrum values. Do you know them?
This is the second post in a series related to the Zen of Scrum presentation (available on SlideShare.net). In the previous post I wrote about the agile manifesto where the five values are rooted.
Zen values simplicity, so does agile development. Zen means introspection, a key component of Scrum as well. Additionally, Zen is the attainment of enlightenment: very similar to the feeling when you first get agile.
As promised, here's the first post in a series about the free presentation Zen of Scrum available at SlideShare.net. (It is also available as PDF here.)
Why did I name the slideshow Zen of Scrum1? In addition to the things mentioned above, Zen is a state of complete awareness where you are in perfect tune with your surroundings, ready for anything. This is a goal of Scrum, too: you should always be prepared for, and welcome, changes.
