Scrum@Scale: A Comprehensive Guide

What is Scrum@Scale?
Scrum@Scale is a framework for scaling Scrum across big organizations and large teams. It was developed by one of the original founders of Scrum, Dr. Jeff Sutherland. It converts the whole organization into a Scrum team by creating a 'network of teams' model.

Why is Scrum@Scale important?
Scrum@Scale allows companies to efficiently manage large development effort by breaking them into smaller, coordinated tasks executed by multiple Scrum teams. It optimizes resource allocation, reduces management overhead and improves the project delivery time.

How does Scrum@Scale work?
It works by dividing the organization's resources into multiple Scrum teams which operate independently yet are aligned with the company’s goals. The 'Scrum of Scrums' (SoS) and 'MetaScrum' meetings are central to coordinate and align these teams.

Scrum@Scale practice test

Scrum@Scale is an Agile scaling framework developed by Jeff Sutherland, one of the co-creators of Scrum, designed to help organizations effectively scale Scrum across multiple teams. It focuses on creating a 'fractal' system, where each Scrum team mirrors the processes and practices applied at the organization level. The framework is divided into two main domains: the Scrum Master Cycle, which concentrates on the coordination, coaching, and scaling of teams; and the Product Owner Cycle, which focuses on strategic vision, backlog management, and prioritization. Scrum@Scale allows organizations to maintain the core Scrum principles while scaling and adapting to their specific needs and challenges.
