If you are really using Scrum -- and your bosses are buying into it -- try to have a conversation with them about keeping the time and budget fixed. Then, talk about Scope. As you start delivering what you commit to (as a Scrum Team), these questions usually go away. Ironically people hear Scrum and want it better - cheaper - faster and that is not the case. Tough Conversation. Good luck! Hi Gustavo,

I'm from Argentina and I'm tryinig to implement SCRUM (or something like that) in my organization. The question that comes up as soon as i read articles about the Scrum Master Role is this: how do you keep your company bosses and owners quiet regarding the "control" over the times "planned" and "comitted" releases? I know this is not a "scrum question" but it would be great to know how can i manage this situations as a scrum master "ex PMBOK project manager". Thanks Hi, these posts are great.
