www.implementingscrum.com -- Cartoon -- April 8, 2008

Welcome back to yet another week at www.implementingscrum.com.

About a month ago, our intrepid ScrumMaster seemed to have disappeared and replaced with someone who just agreed with everything everyone said (not really a yes man, especially in the cartoon!).

Well.

He is back.

Or. He never left.

So why is he now sitting in a hospital room with an IV unit, talking to himself?

At least he in conscious and alive.

But now he is saying “No.”

Is this a bad thing?

Remember the entire reason for him getting into this position — or at least why we think he did.

He was saying, “No” to a lot of people, and standing up to the Values of Scrum as he envisioned them.

So we have the Scrum Values.

And.

Each person in the world either knows nothing about them, has heard of them, or is choosing to ignore them.

Which person are You?

Where is your Team?

And your Organization?

Do you see a difference between the current “replacement ScrumMaster” and the one we originally started with?

What do we do next?

Yikes. This is a short posting tonight.

Think about it.

Really.

Think.

Sometimes this can be dangerous.

I call it living.

Something I am continuing to learn how to do.

Gotta run!.Please send comments, questions, criticisms, ideas, or whatever here.

You can also enter The Scrum Community to discuss this entry and other Scrum topics. Thank you!
