Scrum isn’t about best practices.
It’s about exposing uncomfortable truths so we can inspect and adapt.

The question is:
Are we using Scrum to evolve—or just going through the motions?

Developers who hide behind tech debt aren’t “moving fast.”
They’re digging a hole they’ll have to climb out of later.

Speed without direction is just chaos.

A Product Owner treating the backlog like a spec list isn’t “managing scope.”
They’re avoiding accountability for value.

If the work isn’t producing value, what are we doing?

A Scrum Master who won’t challenge poor practices isn’t “servant-leading.”
They’re letting the team fail slowly.

That’s not facilitation. That’s abdication.

The three accountabilities in Scrum aren't suggestions:

The Scrum Master ensures Scrum is applied effectively.

The Product Owner maximises value.

The Developers deliver a Done Increment every Sprint.

If one breaks down, Scrum collapses.
