Agile is a “philosophy” encompassing various methodologies and frameworks. Scrum is a lightweight framework that helps individuals, teams, and organisations create value through adaptive solutions for complex problems. Think of it as a collaborative approach where work is broken down into small, manageable parts, encouraging ongoing experimentation and feedback that fosters learning, improvement, and a steady delivery of value. As an agile framework, Scrum provides a flexible framework that enables teams to easily adapt their workflows by implementing key practices tailored to their specific needs.
