43. Sprints? What do you think?
We had 2-day
Sprints. We had monthly Sprints and the
Review was the Pivot or Persevere
Meeting.
It just wasn‘t Scrum.
The learnings were the real
product increments.
Scrum would only be usefull
during scaling.

47. Take Aways
• Get out of the building
• Check assumptions
• Build Measure Learn
• Optimize: learnings / unit of time
• Minimum Viable Product (MVP)
• Enterprise within the Enterprise
• Quantitative metrics don‘t work with a small user base
