Scrum Management: The Agile Practitioners Survival Guide

By Jean-Gael Reboul

Agile can sound simple in theory and become confusing in practice. Where do you start? How do the roles fit together? What should happen during a Sprint, and how do teams turn feedback into better outcomes?

Drawing on practical experience, this guide takes you from the foundations of Agile to the day-to-day mechanics of Scrum.

You'll explore Agile values and principles, compare common approaches such as Scrum, Kanban, Extreme Programming, and Lean, and then work through Scrum roles, Sprints, backlogs, user stories, estimation, ceremonies, reviews, retrospectives, and team coordination.

The book also includes frequently asked questions, reusable templates, and a new practical chapter on applying Scrum without confusing optional local practices with the framework itself.

Whether you are learning Scrum for the first time or helping a team improve its delivery process, this guide gives you a clear starting point and a practical reference you can return to.
