Why listen to this podcast:

• Scrum continues to be the dominant force in agile/digital/lean startup approaches

• As complexity grows in our world the value of Scrum continues to grow

• If you’re not doing Scrum per the book it doesn’t mean you’re “wrong”, just don’t call it Scrum

• It’s not optional to improve how you work – it’s mandatory!

• Scrum is fundamentally about dealing with complexity and improving productivity

• Digital is about building organisations that are very different and able to take advantage of new technologies with new business models

• Organisations need to move very strongly towards a product mindset and a product structured organisational architecture
