Scrum is a process framework that has been used for more than 25 years to manage complex product development and offers plenty of scope for deploying different processes and techniques. Scrum provides insight into the effectiveness of the product management of the development team. This insight gives the team the opportunity to improve. Scrum is being adopted by more and more organizations for product development; it provides clear insight into the progress of the software development and has little overhead. Scrum is based on the theory of empirical process control, or empiricism. Empiricism assumes that knowledge arises from experience and making decisions based on what is known. Scrum uses an iterative, incremental approach to optimize predictability and manage risk.

The Scrum Master has the responsibility to ensure that a development team using Scrum works as effectively as possible. He or she ensures that Scrum is applied correctly and that the team performs optimally. The Scrum Master is a servant leader and is the link between the team and the rest of the organization.
