Ryan and Todd look back at a 2006 post by Ken Schwaber, which covers 15 ways Scrum is both hard and disruptive. The eight statement from Ken: "The most serious impediments to using Scrum are habits of waterfall, predictive thinking over the last twenty to thirty years; these have spawned command and control management, belief that demanding something will make it happen, and the willingness of development to cut quality to meet dates. These are inbred habits that we arenβt even aware of anymore." π Video Summary: "The Point of Scrum is DONE" Dive into the challenging yet rewarding path of mastering Scrum with this enlightening episode from the "Scrum is Hard and Disruptive" series.
