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.

    oh how I would love to see scrum applied to cooking:

    “chef, this customer wants their food ASAP! scrum it!”

    chef laughs in everybody wants their food asap

      Line cooking is essentially scrum. Each ticket is a story. They are added to the backlog as they come in and added to the sprint when you start cooking.

        yes, it is.

        the analogies are all there: kitchen team is like your self-organizing team and they have all the things they need to complete the task. it quite looks good on paper, just need to see it in action.
