Patterns

Scrum Patterns are the difference between mediocre and high-performing teams. We use a teachback approach to training your learners on the Scrum Patterns from scrumplop.org.

This is a chance for you to get a little 'breather', as this section gives learners a lot of time in their breakout rooms working as a team Point out that Patterns are not a part of The Scrum Guide

Outcomes

  • Learners understand what the Scrum Patterns are, and how they work
  • Learners can speak more deeply to at least one Pattern
