  • Cross-functional, self-organizing teams: scrum teams differ from traditional development teams. The paradigm and character of cross-functional and self-organizing teams promote flexibility, creativity and productivity. Teams choose how they can best produce their work and have all the expertise required to be able to do that, without depending on others outside the team.
