Empiricism

The principle that knowledge comes from experience and decisions are based on what is observed.

Definition

Scrum implements empirical process control through three pillars: transparency, inspection, and adaptation. It suits complex work where more is unknown than known.

Example

Reviewing actual Increment usage data before deciding what to build next.

Exam tip

Inspection without transparency is misleading; adaptation must follow inspection.
