Agile

1. Individuals and interactions over processes and tools 
2. Working software over comprehensive documentation 
3. Customer collaboration over contract negotiation 
4. Responding to change over following a plan 

scrum: set of sprints.

Lean practices:  Eliminate waste.

focus more on next than later

focus more on what is rather than what should be

Agile Thinking:

Speed and flexibility

A way of being best you can while managing change in a transparent cooperative manner.

Scrum:

·         A product owner creates a prioritized wish list called a product backlog.

·         During sprint planning, the team pulls a small chunk from the top of that wish list, a sprint backlog, and decides how to implement those pieces.

·         The team has a certain amount of time — a sprint (usually two to four weeks) — to complete its work, but it meets each day to assess its progress (daily Scrum).

·         Along the way, the ScrumMaster keeps the team focused on its goal.

·         At the end of the sprint, the work should be potentially shippable: ready to hand to a customer, put on a store shelf, or show to a stakeholder.

·         The sprint ends with a sprint review and retrospective.

·         As the next sprint begins, the team chooses another chunk of the product backlog and begins working again.
