    How Are Companies Implementing Scrum in Their Organizations?

    Scrum is one of the most widely adopted forms of agile project management and has enjoyed a growth spurt in popularity over the past decade that shows no signs of slowing down. The Scrum framework that made a huge impact in the IT and the software development sector is now implemented across many industries such as IT, Government, Telecommunications, Education, Pharmaceuticals, and Military. Both large multinational organizations and smaller businesses are benefiting from the Agile Scrum approach.

    For example, Here is a summary of how iSense Prowareness, a company in the Netherlands, used Scrum in sales to improve the account management and sales processes. Like other client service units, the sales and accounts management at iSense accepted that sales are a random reactive process. Before implementing Scrum, the company faced false belief that sales are inherently random, the unpredicted effect of sales, and had no improvement in the sales activities. So then, iSense sales and account management teams decided to adopt scum internally as their best practice. Since the addition of Scrum to sales teams, the company came across all the issues faced before implementing Scrum, and the company revenue doubled.
