I cringe when I see such quotes from Sutherland.\u00a0 Much as I respect Jeff, I wonder if he isn\u2019t doing more of a disservice, raising expectations this high.<\/p>\n

The problem with quotes like this is some people will misinterpret this as a *behavior<\/strong>*, such that if we replicate that behavior, we will get great productivity gains.\u00a0 As written, putting the screws to the scrum master sounds like a great idea.\u00a0 What is missing is management at Deere actually does something<\/em><\/strong> with those impediments.\u00a0 They have internalized the thinking, and they realize agility is not a \u201ctech thing\u201d, but cultural changes that affects the organization, all the way to the top.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe ScrumMaster is not at this meeting [retrospective] to provide answers, but to facilitate the team\u2019s search for better ways for the Scrum process to work for it.\u00a0 Actionable items that can be added to the next Sprint should be devised as high-priority nonfunctional Product Backlog.\u00a0 Retrospectives that don\u2019t result in change are sterile and frustrating\u201d –<\/em> Ken Schwaber<\/p>\n
