Sh*t bad scrum masters say
I came across this tweet the other day which led me to the website of Adam Weisbart and a somewhat humours video Sh*t bad Scrum Masters say. Seeding the topic the group discussed the following anti-patterns:
- Anti-pattern
- Are they effective? Are they just another monotonous meeting that provides no value to attendees, just a bunch of individuals talking about their own stuff, no one sharing, no one caring.
- Review Jason Yip blog post : Its Not Just Standing Up
- You need more WIP
- I’ll estimate for the team
- We’ll automate the test at the end
- Are they effective? Are they just another monotonous meeting that provides no value to attendees, just a bunch of individuals talking about their own stuff, no one sharing, no one caring.
