Why call it Scrum?
Original idea ... January 1986 product development as a cross-team, holistic approach where the team "tries to go the distance as a unit, passing the ball back and forth“ as they all advance forward … like rugby. 1
1 – Harvard Business Review. January 1986 “The New New Product Development Game” by Hirotaka Takeuchi and Ikujiro Nonaka
Leads to the term Scrum in 19952.
As you advance the product forward you need to have periodic meetings to make sure things are on course - these are scrums.
2 – “Scrum Methodology” paper OOPSLA ‘95 Austin, Texas. 1995 Sutherland and Schwaber
