Scrum, derived from the game of rugby, embodies the core principles of collaboration, adaptability, and transparency. It empowers teams to embrace change and deliver high-quality products through iterative and incremental development. At its heart, Scrum values individuals and interactions over processes and tools, customer collaboration over contract negotiation, and responding to change over following a plan.
