Currently on pause
Scrum Patterns Singapore
A monthly meetup exploring Scrum Patterns from “A Scrum Book: The Spirit of the Game.” After 26 sessions over three years, the meetup is taking a well-earned pause. The session archive and resources below remain open for the community.
Ran from June 2020 to August 2023. Open to all practitioners with Scrum experience.
Who it’s for
Scrum Masters, Agile Coaches, and experienced practitioners who want to go deeper than the Scrum Guide. If you’ve been working with Scrum and want to understand whycertain practices work in certain contexts — not just what the practices are — this is for you.
No prior reading of “A Scrum Book” required. Pattern links are shared in advance, and each session starts with a crash course.
Session format
90 minutes. 7:00 PM SGT. Via Zoom. “Teaching from the back of the room” — you explore, not listen.
You’ll need: Zoom · Mural or Miro account · Curiosity
Session archive
