Problems With Multi-Team Synchronization
 Can’t say you are “shippable” until fully integrated
 Hardening/stabilization iterations
 “QA iterations” offset from “Dev iterations”
 Integration iterations
 Visibility into problems is clearest at end of iteration
 Resolution may not come for multiple iterations

Decoupling Commitment
 Or else what?
 New Scrum Guide replaces commitment with
forecast
 Scrum Commitment
• Team will get all committed stories to ‘done’
• Everybody else will leave the team alone
 Trust is the flip side of commitment
 Trust is a two way street and requires flexibility
 Handling the unexpected requires negotiation
