Scrum has no brain
Dramatic title, I know.
The point I wanted to make is that in more traditional software development, you would have a scenario like the human body. There would be the eyes which send signals to the brain, the brain which interprets these signals and controls the arm, which controls the hand, which makes the product.
Now, though, we have Scrum. There is no central lump controlling everything.
There are still eyes, arms, and hands. But, the hands are not told what to do. They decide for themselves what to do, based on what the arm says is possible to do. And so on up the chain.
Scrum has no brain.
And yet, the very point I’m making is that scrum practicioners are blessed with the opportunity and requirement to think for themselves.
