That is a part of the problem. Scrum is very far from Agile. Scrum introduces processes and tools while the Agile Manifesto [1] clearly states:
> Individuals and interactions over processes and tools
That said, Scrum isn't entirely bad. Its just not what many people think it is. As a tool to change the culture of a company that has been shaped by classical project management methods for decades it is very valuable. But the process shouldn't stop there as Scrum isn't the end, its the start.
So companies which managed to implement Scrum should try to move on to more Agile practices to transform their culture over time.

- srtjstjsj 8y agoThe Scrum process is a set of tools to push individuals into interaction instead of hiding from each other.
- Clubber 8y agoYes, and sets aside a lot of time for them to interact (read not get things done) for no good reason. I need interaction maybe 5% in my week. Anything outside of that is just goofing off. Oh and email works great for that sort of thing (interaction, not goofing off).
