Description

The rules and practices for Scrum -- a simple process for managing complex projects -- are few, straightforward, and easy to learn. But Scrum's simplicity itself -- its lack of prescription -- can be disarming, and new practitioners often find themselves reverting to old project management habits and tools and yielding lesser results. In this illuminating series of case studies, Scrum co-creator and evangelist Ken Schwaber identifies the real-world lessons -- the successes and failures -- culled from his years of experience coaching companies in agile project management. Through them, you'll understand how to use Scrum to solve complex problems and drive better results -- delivering more valuable software faster.
Gain the foundation in Scrum theory -- and practice -- you need to:


• Rein in even the most complex, unwieldy projects

• Effectively manage unknown or changing product requirements

• Simplify the chain of command with self-managing development teams

• Receive clearer specifications -- and feedback -- from customers

• Greatly reduce project planning time and required tools

• Build -- and release -- products in 30-day cycles so clients get deliverables earlier

• Avoid missteps by regularly inspecting, reporting on, and fine-tuning projects

• Support multiple teams working on a large-scale project from many geographic locations

• Maximize return on investment!
