# Empirical management with Scrum

A framework for complex product development using transparency, inspection and adaptation in short cycles.

 Framework · Technology and product


## Core concepts
  Product Goal: a shared longer-term direction
 Sprint Goal: the objective of a cycle
 Definition of Done: a shared quality standard for the increment
 

## Application
 Use this framework to agree goals and completion criteria in product teams able to review results regularly.


## Limitations and jurisdiction
 Scheduling events alone does not produce autonomous collaboration or results. Emergency work and external dependencies require additional operating arrangements.


## Editorial perspectives
  Protect the goal: examine how changes affect the current cycle.
 Incorporate learning: use review evidence to adjust the next priorities.
