I guess you’ve all heard about chickens and pigs in Scrum. A client of mine just offered me a new one: The Scrum Hawk. He explains it like this :
“When SCRUM is new to an organization, the first couple of sprints will likely not go as well as planned. At this point, the scrum chickens magically transform into hawks, ready to pounce on the scrum team. “Pouncing” may include attending the daily standup meetings to put pressure on the team.”
Who are these Hawks?
What are Scrum Hawks doing to your new (or not so new) team?
How are they affecting the team?
How do we ground these Hawks and get them to cluck again?
