Success of a scrum team

May 23, 2022
What does #success look like for you in a scrum #team?
success of a scrum team

... not more #velocity.

Scrum isn’t about making our teams more predictable and it’s not about getting more and more done.

Do I like being part of a team that’s getting through lots and lots of work and being recognised for it? Of course I do.

But have you ever been part of a team that’s worked really hard for months and months building something technically excellent… only for the end result (for whatever reason) never to be used? I have!

Lots of velocity. No value.

... not more #velocity.

It’s natural for management to want our teams to be “more predictable”.

It’s perfectly understandable that stakeholders want more and to want it sooner.

But if we focus on velocity / story points / productivity at the expense of value / building quality in / embracing change / responding to feedback then what exactly are we doing?

That doesn’t sound very Agile at all!

Velocity isn’t ever mentioned in The Scrum Guide, for good reason!

Scrum is a simple framework designed to help organisations achieve their goals and teams to deliver value … not more velocity.
