    Can an inexperienced development team without any senior members can implement scrum?

    Can an inexperienced development team without any senior members can implement scrum?

    Can an inexperienced development team without any senior members can implement scrum? While there's a debate on the necessity of technical excellence for scrum's foundation, one suggestion is to define a clear DOD (definition of done) to unify the team. By revisiting and evolving this definition, teams can incrementally improve and move towards better technical excellence and adopt more Scrum practices. Join us as we delve into this topic, with Todd showing an optimistic viewpoint and a surprising role reversal on our perspectives.

    YDS: Will I Get Fired If My Team Is Performing So Well?

    In this episode, Todd and Ryan discuss what to do if you’re a Scrum Master whose team is performing so well you’re afraid of losing your job. Todd emphasizes analyzing your team under a broader sphere to see where gaps between your team and other teams may be. In addition, Ryan also emphasizes the importance of analyzing your team according to data, product rollout and overall customer satisfaction. Because although some teams appear to function well, it can take only a few sprints to show where the gaps lie.

Great Resource

I stumbled across this podcast via LinkedIn. This has been such a great resource for me as I begin my career as a certified scrum master and project manager. I am looking forward to implement what I’ve been doing for years in a more official and effective way to maximize growth, and this podcast helps answer questions that I sometimes ask myself throughout the process.
