Q

What are the 3 Pillars (Säulen) of Scrum?

A

Transparency
=> emergent process & work must be visible to those performing, as well as those receiving the work

=> One of the jobs of the Scrum Master is to detect incomplete transparency

Inspection
=> timely checks on the progress towards a sprint goal to detect undisirable variences
=> Inspection enables adaptation.

Adaption
=> adjusting a process or materials asap, to minimize any further deviation (Abweichung) or issues
=> A Scrum Team is expected to adapt the moment it learns anything new through inspection

Q

What are the 5 Values of Scrum?

A

Commitment
=> If one succeeds, all succeed; If one fails, all fail

Courage
* need to get out of your comfort zone (tough problems)
* Having a growth mindset

Focus
* Working on what is more important first
* No one can get in the way of the Scrum Team and make them work on stuff other than what has been planned for the Sprint

Openness
* Good teamwork (asking and offering help)
* sometimes admit that the wrong decision was taken and that the team must change the way of working

Respect
* knowing that people are doing their best, giving them autonomy, assuming that they are skilled enough and have good intentions and recognizing that they have different backgrounds, personalities and abilities
