SCRUM and AGILE Development







Scrum is a way for teams to work
together to develop a product.
Product development, using
Scrum, occurs in small
pieces, with each piece building
upon previously created pieces.
Building products one small piece
at a time encourages creativity
and enables teams to respond to
feedback and change, to build
exactly and only what is needed.
