Scrum is an agile framework that, if applied properly, can boost the efficiency of teamwork. It is known to be versatile enough, so it could be applied in basically any sort of productive teamwork, even beyond IT (e.g. bakeries, government organizations, etc.)
However, I’ve never ever seen it being used anywhere else other than in software development, therefore I’ve always been curious if Scrum is actually being used outside of IT somewhere.
The whole 9-5 realm is a joke. To give you an example, I noticed IT bois works on tickets like each email comms are tickets but same is not the case of any other department. If the same was across whole organization, people will be more productive and will be held accountable.
I’ve dealt with many IT managers, product owners etc and have noticed something that these guys are willing to bend over for smallest of things but with other departments managers, there will be a pushback.
