By your analogy, the purpose of doing Scrum (drills) is to get better at doing Scrum (parading) rather than doing actual work (soldiery things) - which I think pretty accurately sums up my experience with it.
- falcor84 5y agoAs I understand the analogy, the purpose of scrum (and particularly reporting), similar to the purpose of parading, is to demonstrate that you have in front of you a large group of individuals trained to work in an organized, consistent and predictable way. The implication is that if given any other "somewhat similar" task, this group would be able to perform that task in a similarly organized manner too. The choice of what the task should actually be is then left to someone on a higher pay grade.
