Scrum has been around since 1995, for more than two decades. Since the release of the Agile Manifesto in 2001, Scrum gradually become the most applied method for Agile software development. Depending on the source, 70-90% of all Agile teams worldwide say they use Scrum. Can we say we’re Done with Scrum? Or is the key for future success still Scrum – meaning we are not yet Done with Scrum? The key to employing Scrum professionally is creating Done Increments of product, where “Done” actually means “releasable in production.” It might take another two decades to actually get there.

Editor's Notes
- Abstract Scrum has been around since 1995, for more than two decades. Since the release of the Agile Manifesto in 2001, Scrum gradually become the most applied method for Agile software development. Depending on the source, 70-90% of all Agile teams worldwide say they use Scrum. Scrum has been a key tool for teams and organizations to deal with the increased criticality of software. The primary reason for the success is in the people using Scrum to help them manage and create software products, better. In a world where the dependence of businesses and society on software has increased even more, can we say we’re Done with Scrum? Or do we have many challenges in implementing Scrum? As complexity and unpredictability continue to increase? The key for future success is still Scrum – and we are not yet Done with Scrum. The key to employing Scrum professionally is creating Done Increments of product, where “Done” actually means “releasable in production.” This requires professional development, proper practices and standards, cross-functional collaboration, and inner-Sprint feedback loops. It might take another two decades to actually get there. In his session, Gunther Verheyen explores the system called ‘Scrum’, how it has helped, and how it can continue to help through its core purpose, the creation of Done product in a Sprint, or less. Gunther is a longtime Scrum professional. Having worked with Scrum.org, shepherding the group’s Professional series and leading its European operations, Gunther is now an independent Scrum caretaker.

- Scrum in itself is meaningless, unless employed. The success of Scrum is the daily practitioners. Combined scrum alliance and Scrum.org numbers Amazon search on Scrum (not including rugby books)
- VersionOne, the state of Agile survey. If only 58% were combining Scrum and XP…
- Let’s postpone the celebration a while.

- The development organization (or Development Team if none is available from the development organization) The Scrum Team, in a collaborative effort where the result is the common denominator of all members’ definitions The Product Owner as he/she is responsible for the product’s success The Scrum Master as he/she is responsible for the Development Team’s productivity Feedback Scrum.org: If the definition of “Done" is part of the conventions, standards or guidelines of the development organization, all Scrum Teams must follow it as a minimum. The Development Team of the Scrum Team can complement it with elements specific for the product or context. If “Done" for an increment is not a convention of the development organization, the Development Team of the Scrum Team must define a definition of "done" appropriate for the product. A professional organization defines quality. ‘Quality’ is ideally seen as product qualities.
- What the Scrum Guide says: “If the definition of "done" for an increment is part of the conventions, standards or guidelines of the development organization, all Scrum Teams must follow it as a minimum. If "done" for an increment is not a convention of the development organization, the Development Team of the Scrum Team must define a definition of “done” appropriate for the product.” http://www.scrumguides.org/scrum-guide.html#artifact-transparency-done

- Many definitions of Done focus only on development activities, where such activities in themselves hold no guarantee on high quality.
- Done is a great proxy for the state of our craft, for many organizations this is a hope not a reality. And that the state is not as great as we would think it should be…
- About Gunther Verheyen Gunther Verheyen (gunther.verheyen@mac.com) is a longtime Scrum practitioner. After a career as a consultant, in 2013 he started shepherding the Professional series of Scrum.org, while also leading its European operations. Gunther left Scrum.org in 2016 to further his path as an independent Scrum caretaker. Gunther ventured into IT and software development after graduating in 1992. His Agile journey started with eXtreme Programming and Scrum in 2003. Years of dedication followed, of using Scrum in diverse circumstances. As from 2010 Gunther became the inspiring force behind some large-scale enterprise transformations. Gunther left consulting in 2013 to partner with Ken Schwaber, Scrum co-creator, at Scrum.org. He is Professional Scrum Trainer, shepherded the ‘Professional Scrum’ series, worked with Scrum.org’s global network of Professional Scrum Trainers, and is co-creator to Agility Path and the Nexus framework for Scaled Professional Scrum. Gunther left Scrum.org in 2016 to continue his journey of Scrum as an independent Scrum caretaker. In 2013 Gunther published the acclaimed book “Scrum – A Pocket Guide (a smart travel companion)”. Ken Schwaber recommends his book as ‘the best description of Scrum currently available’ and ‘an extraordinarily competent book’. In 2016 the Dutch translation of his book was published as “Scrum Wegwijzer (Een kompas voor de bewuste reiziger)”. When not travelling for Scrum and professionalism, Gunther lives and works in Antwerp (Belgium). You will know how to contact him for a potentially fruitful collaboration.
