Modern automotive engineering is extremely complex. A new vehicle can take 2-4 years to develop, with an estimated cost of delay of about $2 million per day.

What connects you to Scrum? What of Scrum frustrated you the most so far? What has proven to be the strength of Scrum the past 20 years? What should be the focus of Scrum the upcoming 20 years?

Let’s say you asked your team members and colleagues to share their top picks for summer reading. What’d they suggest? Here’s a list is full of inspirational gems.
