If you’re a (mobile) startup, you probably know how hard it is to keep everything (and everyone) organised. Developers, testers, marketers, designers, product managers, investors and every other stakeholder have to be constantly communicating, so that all project specifications are understood and internalised simultaneously. This is just an introduction to SCRUM and its multiple benefits.

1. SCRUM
Streamline Your Mobile Product
Development Process

2. WHAT IS SCRUM?

3. An efficient way of improving team
work, communications and speed.

5. HOW DO YOU KNOW
YOU NEED SCRUM?

6. You are not happy with the way your
team performs.

8. Team members are constantly
complaining of an overscheduled
agenda.

10. Everybody is terrified of the next
demo.

12. The final delivered product is not
what you need.

14. Chaos, chaos, chaos.

16. HOW IS SCRUM
DIFFERENT?

17. Planning and decision-making is
done within the team.

19. The team becomes proactive and
energized.

21. There is more flexibility: new features can
be added and tasks can be reprioritized
without altering the workflow.

23. It encourages constant feedback.

25. At the beginning of each sprint, the
team commits to delivering a specific
functionality.

27. At the end of each sprint, the
product owner reviews the shippable
product increment.

29. SCRUM ROLES

30. The Product Owner (PO) manages the
product backlog.

32. The SCRUM Master removes the
impediments that may occur.

34. The Development Team
