WHAT CAN POSSIBLY GO WRONG WITH SCRUM? Created by Aurelien
Beraud
None
None
SO WHAT CAN GO WRONG? Purpose of Scrum Planning meeting
Product Owner role Team Empowerment Tribal culture Retrospective Scrum Master role <Insert your own> And much more ...
PURPOSE OF SCRUM
Any process that people use is wasteful, and that includes
Scrum. (Jeff Sutherland, co-creator of Scrum - 2014)
So, what is the purpose of Scrum then? To help
us learn this:
While we learn we should: Follow the rules. Experiment and
make mistakes. Not get discouraged when we fail.
And once we have learned "Agility", then we don't need
Scrum anymore.
PLANNING MEETING
None
If we really wanted to plan and estimate every details,
we would do it like that:
Human being are lousy at estimating, so stop doing it!
Use an abstraction: Story Points Compare stories
Wall estimates
Did you know the planning meeting has two parts? First
part - What? Second part - How? If you forget part 2, you then have a goal but you have no plan at all.
GROOMING MEETING Sounds funny right? Well that is what you
do when you do a grooming meeting!
PRODUCT OWNER ROLE
None
However he often becomes a bottleneck ... so what to
do? Share the vision not the solution. Open communication channels. Delegate to the team.
TEAM EMPOWERMENT
DAILY SCRUM
meeting! The Daily Scrum is a PLANNING
Only the team is supposed to attend that meeting. However
they might need a facilitator help with the self- organization.
SCRUM BOARD Simple and efficient.
But what about ...
or ...
TRIBAL CULTURE
Scrum is asking you to be on stage 4.
So what technique could we use to have people working
more closely together? PAIR PROGRAMMING
Some people go even further: Mob Programming
Level 4 tribe does not stop when you step outside
of the office. So do thing as a team outside of work.
RETROSPECTIVE
Common problems: Not engaging Repetitive Broad non actionable goals No
follow up on actions Disappear when firefighting
None
Structure your retrospective: Set the stage Gather data Generate Insights
Decide what to do Close the retrospective And have a specialist to faciliate it.
Force yourself to keep doing it, especially when under pressure.
The problem you are facing are probably caused by something you haven't identified yet. So take the time for self reflection.
SCRUM MASTER ROLE
Scrum ask for much complex things than what is described
in the Scrum guide. It asks the whole organization to change it's culture and behavior. And that is one of the reason you have a dedicated role to help with the transition.
However: A two days course does not make a good
Scrum Master.
All these problems I have listed are IMPEDIMENTS that the
Scrum Master needs to solve. Do you really think someone can do that as a part time job?
Scrum is about change, however humans don't like change. So
you will need the courage to challenge the status-quo and start doing things differently.
