We  want  to  re-­‐base  to  the  Scrum  basics  of    

  *  Focus,       *  Alignment,       *  Ar@ul  Making,       *  Self-­‐OrganisaBon,  and       *  Rhythm.    

…  share  our  understanding  of  Scrum  as  a  transformaBonal  container,  unleashing  people's  creaBve  potenBal  to  develop  great  products,  together.    

…  get  back  to  the  heart  of  Scrum,  and  Agile.

Tobias’  Arguments

Page 25: The Soul of Scrum

There  is  no  formula,  no  prescripKon,  no  defined  set  of  steps.  Scrum  does  not  tell  you  how  to  do  Scrum.

Page 26: The Soul of Scrum

Work  is  fun.  We  don’t  require  water  cooler  moments  and  cigare7e  breaks  in  order  to  exercise  our  deep,  human  need  for  conversaKon,  for  interacKon.  In  Scrum  we  live  this  way.  All  day,  every  day.

Page 27: The Soul of Scrum

We  can  stop  being  vicKms  of  process  and  start  being  warriors  of  change.

Page 28: The Soul of Scrum

Self-­‐OrganisaKon   is  anarchic.  Well-­‐funcKoning,   self-­‐organised  teams  will  request  leaders  as  needed.

Page 29: The Soul of Scrum

Catastrophic  change  comes  about  when  people  discover  their  own  truth,  by  pushing  their  own  and  others’  comfort  zones  to  the  limit,  by  taking  risks,  embracing  failure  and  walking  through  fear.

Page 30: The Soul of Scrum

Seed  the  lowest  level  of  the  organizaKon  with  agents  of  passion:  educate  them,  nurture  them,  make  knowledge  available,  have  conversaKons,  share  stories,  laugh,  agitate  and  ask  difficult  quesKons.  Be  unafraid.  Change  will  be  much  slower,  but  it  will  be  real  and  yes,  it  may  well  be  catastrophic.

Page 31: The Soul of Scrum

Agile  is  a  compassionate  form  of  anarchy—a  gentle  movement  away  from  hierarchical,  controlling  structures  toward  collaboraKve,  self-­‐organized  ones.

Page 32: The Soul of Scrum

Our  leaders  are  but  trusted  servants;  they  do  not  govern  (…).  Each  team  should  be  autonomous  except  in  ma7ers  affecKng  other  teams  or  the  organizaKon  as  a  whole.  Each  team  has  but  one  primary  purpose— to  build  an  increment  of  product  in  every  iteraKon  and   deliver  it  to  the  customer  (who  is  possibly  suffering!).

Page 34: The Soul of Scrum

Scrum  is  a  means  to  break  rules.  How  can  we  explain  it  without  rules?

Page 35: The Soul of Scrum

Idea:  Liquid  Scrum

Scrum  as  a  set  of  Choices:  

One  constraint  

Three  Focused  Interests  

A  list  of  opBons

Page 36: The Soul of Scrum

Constrain  the  System

Timebox  of  two  weeks  

"Scrum  only  makes  one  promise:  it  enables  you  to  fail  in  30  days  or  less."  

Scrum  is  not  a  soluBon.   It's  a  looking  glass  for  the  shit  under  the  carpet.  It  gives  us  the  choice  to  do  something  about  it,  or  not.

Page 37: The Soul of Scrum

Focused  InterestsRoles  are  "not  my  problem"  rules.  

We  will  not  win  as  a  team  if  we're  not  responsible  together.

Do  the  right  thing.  

Do  things  right.  

Get  beSer  and  beSer  every  day.
