Summary of Scrum (Jeff Sutherland)
Book Abstract
MAIN IDEA
The conventional way of doing product development is broken. The Waterfall Method
– break a large project down into step-by-step chunks and schedule them on a Gantt chart – doesn't work. Almost without fail, waterfall method projects fall behind schedule, go over budget and run the risk of generating products nobody wants or will pay for when completed.
SCRUM was developed in 1993 as a new and improved way to do projects. It is designed to be evolutionary and adaptive rather than top-down and prescriptive. SCRUM was initially used with great success in the software industry but has now been used successfully in almost every industry across the board.
SCRUM draws on the advantages of the Toyota Production System and the OODA loop used in combat aviation. SCRUM organizes around small teams – the most effective way to work – who prioritize what needs to be done and then run one-to two-week sprints to gain momentum and make everyone accountable. These teams stay organized by holding brief daily stand-up meetings where everyone can share tips, get help on challenges which crop up and be accountable.
"I first created Scrum, with Ken Schwaber, twenty years ago, as a faster, more reliable, more effective way to create software in the tech industry. Scrum is a radical change from the prescriptive, top-down project management methodologies of the past, Scrum, instead, is akin to evolutionary, adaptive, and self-correcting systems. We've used Scrum to build everything from affordable 100-miles-per-gallon cars
