Scrum-the fable of "chicken" and "pig"

Scrum strictly distinguishes between the two types of people: Give the project owner the power to complete the necessary work and ensure the project is successful;If there is no responsible person, there is no right to impose unnecessary interference on the project.

These two types of humans are vividly called "pig" and "chicken" in scrum ". "Chicken" is a bystander. This originated from an old joke: a chicken and a pig walk along the road. The pig said, "Do you want to cook a restaurant with me ?" The pig thought for a moment and replied, "Okay, I'm happy. What name do you want to name a restaurant ?" The chicken replied, "ham and eggs !" Pig paused and hesitated and said, "After thinking twice, I decided not to open this restaurant with you. Because I have to devote myself to it, and you are only involved ." In the scrum method, the above distinction is very important, it is related to the principle of full scrum visibility. Always differentiate the responsible person and give an idea.

In the operation of agile projects, the scrum master needs to control the scrum process and strive to protect the team from external interference. If there are too many "Chickens" in the project (senior project leaders, people with various stakeholders related to the project, etc.), it will be difficult for the project to succeed.
