Scrum theory: why does Scrum work and what are the first principles? How are these different from more traditional approaches and what is the impact?
Scrum framework, roles, rules, and flow: how the theory is implemented in the Scrum using the Scrum time-boxes, roles, rules, and artifacts. How can these be used most effectively and how can they fall apart?
Change: what changes does Scrum change in an organization and what is the best way to make them and take advantage of their benefits?
Increments: A Scrum increment has to be transparent and ready for inspection. What does this mean, what is a “done” increment, and what happens to “undone” work.

Emergent Architecture: Scrum is empirical. What is the impact of empiricism and emergence on complex architectures and infrastructure development?
Scrum Planning: Plan a project and estimate its cost and completion date.
Scrum and Change: Scrum is different. What does this mean to my project and my organization? How do I best adopt Scrum given the change that is expected?
Scrum and Total Cost of Ownership: A system isn’t just developed. It is also sustained, maintained and enhanced. How is the overall cost of this Total Cost of Ownership measured and optimized?
Scaling Scrum: Scrum works great with one team. It also works better than anything else for projects or product releases that involve hundreds and thousands of people dispersed over the globe. How is this best done and managed?
Scrum Master: What is the role of the Scrum Master and how can it best be performed?
