Overcoming Communication Hurdles with Scrum

The Scrum framework is widely used as an agile methodology for businesses. However, despite the large number of certified professionals worldwide, achieving true agility still requires assistance.

Specialization can hinder communication, especially when groups have many roles and titles.

It is better to start a task after completing it at the end of a Sprint to save valuable resources, effort, and time with no outcome. A team relying on heroic actions to meet deadlines must be fixed, as it leads to burnout and prevents continuous improvement. It is crucial to avoid moving from one crisis to another and focus instead on logical, ongoing progress.

Other team members can suggest changes, which the leader can accept or reject based on their quality and usefulness.

The programmers should have the final say in deciding which features to build.
