Whole Team Accountability in Scrum (video)

Published January 15, 2024
by Stephanie Ockerman

In this 13-minute video, I chat with colleague Ryan Ripley to answer a common question I get about Scrum:

When everyone is accountable, doesn’t that mean nobody is accountable?

Ryan and I discuss:

  1. Why whole team accountability is so important.
  2. Why it does NOT diminish the individual accountabilities in Scrum.
  3. Tips on how to overcome misunderstandings and challenges.
