Presented at Scrum Australia 2014 in Sydney on the 22nd of October, this presentation focuses on Daily Scrums that are being heavily command and controlled and seeks to provide solutions to both resolving Darth Vader like behaviour but also having a really effective scrum that is not a progress report.

Is there a risk that delivery expectations won’t be met?
