Introduction to Scrum – Part 9
Scrum Principles
The principles for both single scrum master projects and those with Chief Scrum Masters for larger projects, programs, and portfolios are similar. The primary differences are around scaling the principles.
Team collaboration takes on a different level of scalability and management by the Scrum Master with larger program and portfolio opportunities. Managing team activities across multiple work streams requires that Scrum Masters collaborate across the program versus having a single stream perspective. Scaled Agile introduces an even larger enterprise component to the delivery of projects using Scrum Masters as domain specialists to guide teams within the more expansive nature of program and portfolio delivery.
Large Scrum programs expand the principles of Scrum by:
● Creating self-organizing teams with Scrum Masters who manage interdependencies
● Specialization in scrum team delivery may require a Scrum Master with similar capabilities
● Stronger definition of guidelines and processes to ensure consistency and
Coordination with the leadership of the Chief Scrum Master to create coordinated releases
Ceremonies
The value of ceremonies in an Agile Scrum project are paramount in obtaining the benefits of the framework. The ceremonies that are consistent for both single and enterprise are:
● Backlog Prioritisation
● Sprint Planning
● Daily Stand Up
● Sprint Review and
● Sprint Retrospective.
