A Scrum Book


Book Description

Building a successful product usually involves teams of people, and many choose the Scrum approach to aid in creating products that deliver the highest possible value. Implementing Scrum gives teams a collection of powerful ideas they can assemble to fit their needs and meet their goals. The ninety-four patterns contained within are elaborated nuggets of insight into Scrum’s building blocks, how they work, and how to use them. They offer novices a roadmap for starting from scratch, yet they help intermediate practitioners fine-tune or fortify their Scrum implementations. Experienced practitioners can use the patterns and supporting explanations to get a better understanding of how the parts of Scrum complement each other to solve common problems in product development. The patterns are written in the well-known Alexandrian form, whose roots in architecture and design have enjoyed broad application in the software world. The form organizes each pattern so you can navigate directly to organizational design tradeoffs or jump to the solution or rationale that makes the solution work. The patterns flow together naturally through the context sections at their beginning and end. Learn everything you need to know to master and implement Scrum one step at a time—the agile way.

Scrum


Book Description

Dalam merancang sebuah produk baru, orang-orang acap kali membuat gambaran besar dan target yang rencana pengerjaannya dibuat secara sangat mendetail dan terperinci. Sekadar membuat rencana kerjanya saja membutuhkan waktu lama. Sayangnya, yang sering kali terjadi adalah orang-orang terlalu fokus pada detail sehingga menomorduakan efektivitas waktu dan menomortigakan efisiensi biaya. Proses tersebut lambat, tak terprediksi, dan sering kali tidak menghasilkan produk yang diinginkan orang-orang. Demi memangkas semua detail pekerjaan sia-sia tersebut, selama 20 tahun terakhir, sebagai pelatih dan konsultan ratusan perusahaan, Jeff Sutherland tak pernah lelah memperkenalkan metode Scrum ke seluruh dunia. Lewat Scrum, Sutherland berhasil mereformasi sistem basis data di FBI pasca 9/11 dan memuluskan berbagai proyek di Silicon Valley. Kini, Scrum tak hanya diaplikasikan untuk proyek di bidang teknologi saja, tetapi juga di ranah pendidikan, jurnalistik, hingga sesuatu yang personal seperti merancang pesta pernikahan. Hal luar biasa yang membedakan Scrum dengan metode manajemen lain adalah kemampuannya untuk merengkuh konsep evaluasi berkesinambungan untuk menjaring respons dari klien secepatnya, alih-alih menunggu, hingga proyek benar-benar rampung. Dengan Scrum, tak ada hal sia-sia yang akan Anda lakukan. "Revolusioner ... akan menjungkir balikkan asumsi orang-orang terkait bisa seproduktif apa diri mereka ...." -Michael Mangi, Wakil Presiden Senior Bidang Teknologi Interaktif Social@Ogilvy "Jeff Sutherland adalah pakar nomor satu dalam menciptakan tim berkinerja unggul." -Scott Maxwell, Pendiri dan Direktur Pelaksana Senior OpenView Venture Partners [Mizan, Bentang Pustaka, Motivasi, Bisnis, Kepemimpinan, Panduan, Indonesia] Spesial Seri Bentang Bisnis & Startup
