Scrum Master Certified

It's been truly said and proven since times immemorial that “Time is money”. Any
project’s engineering life cycle comprises of initiation, planning, execution, and
closure. But in today’s fast paced technology environment, one cannot wait for long
times for project deliveries. Till the time you are about to launch or deliver your
product the plan or the technology changes.

Moreover, most of the time while a project is in the development phase stakeholders
either thinks of dropping the plan when it is not progressing forward, or they start
working on new ideas, or they start searching for a better project manager, or
sometimes they keep on holding endless meetings trying to include the changed
requirements, thereby working more extensively hoping that they do not stumble
before reaching the finish line. Also, nowadays, all resources are more expensive than
ever. We constantly stress about deadline thinking about the result to be better. Energy
of the team gets drained out by the time it reaches to the closure of any project.

The above realization has led all the projects to adopt the agile process in SCRUM way.

What is Scrum?

Scrum is the most popular agile framework of today’s times, extensively used in the
software development and software engineering. Scrum is an iterative software
development model that works to deliver useful working software based on customer
priority.

Scrum is a flexible, holistic product development strategy wherein the complete

development team works for the fulfilment of a common goal. They work by
challenging the assumptions of the conventional, sequential approach to product
development. Teams are self-organized and their monitoring through physical co-
location or close online collaboration can be done wherein all team members are
encouraged to communicate daily for improved status visibility and reduce schedule
risks.
Fixed-length iterations are defined which are known as sprints which lasts for one to
two weeks, allowing the team to ship software on a regular cadence. After the
completion of each sprint, stakeholders and team members meet up again to review
and plan next steps. Scrum encompasses a defined and organized set of roles,
responsibilities, and meetings that never change.

 Scrum facilitates more transparency and project visibility.
