Four years ago, a few of us at 3M Healthy Information Systems took the challenge to implement Scrum to solve an acute business problem. Little did I know that Scrum was destined to be the antidote for all kinds of ills: mistrust, silos, bureaucracy, lack of community and belonging. . . . Every takeaway in The Scrum Fieldbook and I mean every one was like reliving our journey. Scrum is not hard to understand. It s hard to do. Therefore: Decide. Create. Care. Adjust. Repeat. This is the way the good people in our world have made life for all of us better. David Frazee, director, Corporate Research Systems Lab, 3M
