“Man, what a day. Not the worst day of my life, but up there. Top five.”
― Jeff Sutherland, The Power of Scrum

“You aren’t going to fix problems in fifteen minutes—I don’t care how task-oriented you are.” “You’re right; that’s not what the stand-ups are for. They’re to point out problems—or what in Scrum we call ‘impediments’.”
― Jeff Sutherland, The Power of Scrum

“Scrum doesn’t have project managers. Instead, the team is empowered. They’re responsible for the outcome, and they can manage themselves. The classic project manager ‘boss’ of the team isn’t needed in Scrum. The team plans each Sprint based on the priorities of the Product Owner. They divide the work among themselves, make progress transparent and monitor themselves.”
― Jeff Sutherland, The Power of Scrum

“I was the leader of this team. They had faith in me. I had to let go of the worry. Let go of the fear. I could curl up and cry at home. Not here.”
― Jeff Sutherland, The Power of Scrum
