Scrum is a lightweight framework that helps individuals, teams, and organisations generate value through adaptive solutions for complex problems. Created by Ken Schwaber and Jeff Sutherland, Scrum is the world's most widely adopted agile framework — used by over 58% of software organisations globally and across banking, healthcare, e-commerce, and government sectors.
Scrum breaks complex work into short focused cycles called Sprints — typically 1 to 4 weeks — and continuously inspects and adapts based on real feedback. This allows teams to deliver value early, change direction quickly, and improve continuously.
| Aspect | Scrum | Traditional |
|---|---|---|
| Planning | Adaptive — evolves with learning | Predictive — planned upfront |
| Delivery | Incremental — value every Sprint | Sequential — value at end |
| Change | Welcomed — competitive advantage | Resisted — formal process |
| Customer | Continuous — every Sprint | Minimal — start and end |
| Team | Self-managing, cross-functional | Hierarchical, specialised |
