Succeed with Scrum in Even the Largest, Most Complex Distributed Development Projects

This is the first comprehensive, practical guide for Scrum

practitioners working in large-scale distributed environments. Written

by three of IBM’s leading Scrum practitioners–in close collaboration

with the IBM QSE Scrum Community of more than 1000 members

worldwide–this book offers specific, actionable guidance for everyone

who wants to succeed with Scrum in the enterprise.

Readers will follow a journey through the lifecycle of a distributed

Scrum project, from envisioning products and setting up teams to

preparing for Sprint planning and running retrospectives. Each chapter

presents a baseline drawn from “conventional” Scrum, then discusses

additional issues faced by distributed teams, and presents specific

best-practice solutions, alternatives, and tips the authors have

identified through hard, empirical experience.

Using real-world examples, the book demonstrates how to apply key

Scrum practices, such as look-ahead planning in geographically

distributed environments. Readers will also gain valuable new insights

into the agile management of complex problem and technical domains.
