Armond, what’s important is the information that is gathered from a daily standup, not the daily standup itself. If that information is already gathered in an efficient way (such as a small team that works in the same room and openly discusses everything throughout the day), there is no need for an additional meeting. DO NOT confuse my statement with thinking there is no need for the daily standup. If you don’t have a better way of getting the info, the daily standup is the way to go.
Excellent, excellent, excellent video! Not only interesting, but assertive and fun!
There’s just one bad point about it… it has to low volume… i barely could hear it
except raising my speakers volume and hope nobody will nudge me on msn while having the speaker near my ear!
Excellent video! As for all the debates below, folks who have worked with MANY methodologies in MANY environments (including Agile/ Scrum/ AUP) know that any aspect of any methodology may be excluded from the project, provided there is justification for that exclusion, and understanding of the consequences. Scrum is just as adaptable as other PM/ SDLC methodologies, since “The Methodology isn’t the Project”, just as “The Schedule isn’t the Project”.
Hamid,
Could you please address the reasons for dismissing the importance of DAILY scrum meetings?
You do such a great job of explaining Scrum but then pour cold water on, what most people, consider to be a non-negotiable aspect of Scrum: the daily 15 minute stand-up meeting with the whole team.
Sincerely,
-Armond
Generally a good video, but I STRONGLY DISAGREE that daily scrum is optional. Daily scrum meetings are MOST important. Even if you work with remote developers you MUST do it every day (eg via Skype). If you miss it when things are going well, you will be unable to call it when things go off track, then the whole process unravels. Great video, just be sure to do DAILY scrum meetings/calls
To clarify: I am not against burndowns, but saying that burndown chart == scrum is a bit… simplified.
So, without burndown charts, you are not doing scrum? Burndown is a tool. It is not what scrum is about. All agile methodologies are pretty similar in core their core values and methods, since they all are based on the agile manifesto. There are several cases where the burndown does not bring much value.
The burndown is probably the most important new aspect of software development that scrum brings to the table. All of the other concepts are found in a collection of other methodologies. Therefore, burndowns are the most important piece of scrum.
overemphasis on the burndown chart and silly dismissal of the importance of the daily standup meeting.
excellent work mate! that was quick and clear. i had been seeing a few big presentations but it is good to see that you did not miss any important information. good job!
great stuff in a short span
Thank you. very well done..
great video…short..no crap..2 the point..
great tutorial. Thanks!
Though I am a agile team member, I liked the video very much and instatly shared among the team members but we thought that if more information can be provided on SBL (Spring BackLog) and applications can be used for that (Ex: Excel) would be more useful.
The most concise 8 minutes i’ve sat through all year. Great animations, and fantastic vid.
