Introduction to the Scrum Project Roles

A 59 Seconds Agile Article

This article provides an ‘Introduction into the Scrum Project Roles’ and looks to discuss the different roles that are involved in an Agile Scrum Project.

Development Team

The Development Team refers to the collection of individuals who work together to deliver the product increments. It is composed of six to nine members, which is large enough to be composed of different skill sets, and small enough to easily collaborate. As such, the team is cross functional.

Everyone on the project works together, helps each other, and shares a deep sense of camaraderie. Unlike traditional development teams, there are not distinct roles like programmer, designer, or tester. Everyone completes the work together.

The Development Team owns the plan for each sprint; they anticipate how much work they can complete in each iteration. They are autonomous and make decisions independently without interference from either the product owner or scrum master.

Unlike a traditional project where the project team’s organization is managed, centralized and leadership style is autocratic and requirements are already fixed in the project plan.

User Stories Applied

A 59 Seconds Agile Book Review

User Stories Applied by Mike Cohn is one of our favourite books on Agile User Stories.
