The goal of this blog entry is to explain the basic concepts of Scrum in less than five minutes. You learn how Scrum can help a team of developers to successfully complete a complex software project.

"While Scrum's primary goal is organization and project management, Lean is more about optimizing processes in order to quickly produce quality products. It can be your first step toward adopting Agile principles, or it may be something that your team evolves to, when Scrum isn't enough. I invite you to read my team's story, and how we evolved from Scrum to a more Lean-ish development process."
