The IAPM scrum management model

Scrum is an iterative, incremental framework for project management involving the roles of product owner, scrum master and scrum team member. If you want to implement a successful scrum project with

your colleagues, you'll need to know exactly what the specific roles involve. You'll have to be an excellent scrum manager and, ideally, get it confirmed by external certification.
