How Would You Describe Scrum in a Nutshell?

Small, cross-functional, self-organizing teams

Split your work

Small, concrete deliverables

Assign someone to be responsible for the work item list and to sort the list by priority

Assign someone to be responsible for coaching and facilitating the team

Implementation team estimates the relative size of each work item

Short fixed-length iterations (Usually 2 Weeks long, but Between 1 – 4 weeks)

Potentially shippable solutions demonstrated after each iteration

Update priorities in collaboration with the customer, based on insights gained by inspecting the release after each iteration

Retrospective after each iteration
