Scrum is a simple framework that allows us to complete projects, continuously improve, and get an early return on investment.

Author note: "I write this text as a certified scrum master with experience in international blue-chip companies dating back to 1999. That experience includes leading projects for the BBC, General Electric, Oracle, BSkyB, HiT Entertainment (responsible for Angelina Ballerina, Bob the Builder, and other titles that you love watching with your kids or siblings but won't admit to) and Razorfish. These roles have all involved leadership on a wealth of mobile, Internet TV, and web software projects. I have played the role of scrum master and, in the earlier years, of team lead and technical lead. I have had the privilege of running projects and rolling out working practices in market-leading organizations from start to finish."

If you want to improve your ability to deliver a scrum project, then this audiobook is for you. The book does not give you magic-wand techniques but instead focuses your attention on:

• Where you should go to understand the fundamentals of scrum
• What mind-set will give you results
• How to leverage scrum to get the best results

The techniques are right under your nose, but many do not even notice them.
