Implementing Scrum: Balancing Agility with Structure with Mike Lyons - Part 2
In Part 2 of this episode with Mike Lyons, we dive into the practical realities of implementing Scrum. We explore the importance of understanding the concept of “lowercase-a agility,” the relationship between a team’s maturity and agile success, and when it's appropriate for mature teams to adapt Scrum practices. We also issue a word of caution—while some modifications to Scrum can enhance delivery, skipping all steps can leave teams questioning why their Scrum efforts are falling short.
What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
- Lowercase-a agility: What it means to be flexible in your agile approach without strict adherence to rules.
- The Role of Team Maturity: How the maturity of a team impacts their ability to succeed with agile frameworks.
- Adapting Scrum Practices: When experienced teams might skip or modify steps while still delivering value.
- The Risk of Over-Adapting: A warning about cutting too many corners and finding yourself wondering, “Why isn’t Scrum working?”
