Scrum

A lightweight framework that helps people, teams, and organizations generate value through adaptive solutions for complex problems.

Defined in the Scrum Guide by Ken Schwaber and Jeff Sutherland (2020 edition current), Scrum is founded on empiricism and lean thinking and consists of the Scrum Team and its accountabilities, events, artifacts, and rules.

Example
