MM 39 Scrum

Scrum essentially consists of three roles, four events, and three artifacts. The working method is strongly characterized by transparency, review, and adaptation. A Scrum team communicates as a unit with stakeholders inside and outside the company.

The Product Owner is primarily responsible for this external communication. Their main task is to make decisions about the product, the work sequence, and deadlines in consultation with the Scrum Team. The second individual is the Scrum Master , who is responsible for the team's work success—in short, for implementing successful Scrum. They must ensure compliance with the Scrum rules, prevent interpersonal discrepancies, and act as a coach and internal communicator. Finally, the Development Team jointly implements the agreed goals and ensures quality standards. The individual members of the Development Team work closely together across disciplines and facilitate each other's work as much as possible.

Scrum is implemented in so-called sprints. A sprint is a constant work cycle for the realization of an increment. The increment could, for example, be a new software section or (outside of the industry) the planning of a campaign. Within each sprint, there are four events, starting with the weekly two-hour sprint planning session . The product owner presents the most urgent features from his product backlog (see next paragraph) that should be added to the product. These are carefully ranked by priority. The development team then decides independently how many points it can realize, but must proceed according to the order specified by the product owner. In the second

During Sprint Planning, when the development team agrees on which tasks are necessary to achieve the Sprint goals, the Product Owner is only consulted to answer any questions that arise.
