Here's a link to the "The Scrum Guide" in the views of Jeff Sutherland and Ken Schwaber:

It intends to be "The Definitive Guide to Scrum: The Rules of the Game".
Personally, don't agree with it all, but, hey, nothing like having a critical reading perspective, right? ;)

Nice readings & have fun! :)

“Want Better Collaboration – don’t be so defensive”, by James (Jim) Tamm

Great article on collaborative/non-collaborative work environments!

It started with a discussion of research done on chickens and looked at the differences between collaborative and non-collaborative groups of chickens.  In non-collaborative groups of chickens the star performers become the stars by suppressing the egg production of other chickens – they look better because they cause others to be less effective.  He related that to many organisational environments and the behaviour of star performers in companies.

Mind maps - You gotta love them!

Mind maps are a creative and much more interesting way, in my perspective, of taking notes, instead of those boring huge reports that we rarely read again...
