## Purpose of the Scrum Guide
We developed Scrum in the early 1990s. We wrote the first version of the Scrum Guide in 2010 to help
people worldwide understand Scrum. We have evolved the Guide since then through small, functional
updates. Together, we stand behind it.
We developed Scrum in the early 1990s. We wrote the first version of the Scrum Guide in 2010 to help people worldwide understand Scrum. We have evolved the Guide since then through small, functional updates. Together, we stand behind it.
The Scrum Guide contains the definition of Scrum. Each element of the framework serves a specific
purpose that is essential to the overall value and results realized with Scrum. Changing the core design
or ideas of Scrum, leaving out elements, or not following the rules of Scrum, covers up problems and
limits the benefits of Scrum, potentially even rendering it useless.

Changing the core design or ideas of Scrum, leaving out elements, or not following the rules of Scrum, covers up problems and limits the benefits of Scrum, potentially even rendering it useless.
We follow the growing use of Scrum within an ever-growing complex world. We are humbled to see
Scrum being adopted in many domains holding essentially complex work, beyond software product
development where Scrum has its roots. As Scrum’s use spreads, developers, researchers, analysts,
scientists, and other specialists do the work. We use the word “developers” in Scrum not to exclude,
but to simplify. If you get value from Scrum, consider yourself included.

As Scrum is being used, patterns, processes, and insights that fit the Scrum framework as described in
this document, may be found, applied and devised. Their description is beyond the purpose of the
Scrum Guide because they are context sensitive and differ widely between Scrum uses. Such tactics for
using within the Scrum framework vary widely and are described elsewhere.

Scrum is simple. Try it as is and determine if its philosophy, theory, and structure help to achieve goals
and create value. The Scrum framework is purposefully incomplete, only defining the parts required to
implement Scrum theory. Scrum is built upon by the collective intelligence of the people using it. Rather
than provide people with detailed instructions, the rules of Scrum guide their relationships and
interactions.

current management, environment, and work techniques, so that improvements can be made.

## Scrum Theory
Scrum is founded on empiricism and lean thinking. Empiricism asserts that knowledge comes from
experience and making decisions based on what is observed. Lean thinking reduces waste and focuses
on the essentials.

Scrum employs an iterative, incremental approach to optimize predictability and to control risk. Scrum
engages groups of people who collectively have all the skills and expertise to do the work and share or
acquire such skills as needed.

Scrum combines four formal events for inspection and adaptation within a containing event, the Sprint.
These events work because they implement the empirical Scrum pillars of transparency, inspection, and
adaptation.

### Transparency
The emergent process and work must be visible to those performing the work as well as those receiving
the work. With Scrum, important decisions are based on the perceived state of its three formal artifacts.
Artifacts that have low transparency can lead to decisions that diminish value and increase risk.
Transparency enables inspection. Inspection without transparency is misleading and wasteful.
