Build Your Own Scrum
Build Your Own Scrum (BYOS) is an interactive module designed to connect teams to the elegance of the Scrum process. It has been successfully used around the world by companies including Intel and Expedia, helping thousands of people to do Scrum.
The BYOS suite of exercises build upon each other, interactively reinforcing Scrum essentials. By the end of the program, participants will have developed a thorough understanding of the Scrum framework including roles, meetings, and the process by which a feature makes its way from the Product Backlog, through a Sprint, and out as a shippable product increment.
Build Your Own Scrum can be run in full in around four hours, or as a one-hour mini-module. Read all about it in the official facilitation guide.

What people are saying about BYOS
Build Your Own Scrum is not only an effective tool for collaborative, interactive learning, but it’s also a starting point to deeper discussions about the elements of Scrum which challenge an organization the most. It’s one of the best tools in my coaching and training toolbox.
I was at Adam’s session at the Scrum Gathering, and was impressed by the design of this exercise. Simple and insightful even for people experienced in Scrum. And I expect this exercise could be easily adapted for other processes. Thanks for providing the template.
