Scrum theory is the foundation of the Scrum framework, emphasizing key principles like empiricism and empirical process control, which stress the importance of learning from experience. Lean Thinking, guided by five core principles, is incorporated to eliminate waste and enhance efficiency. Scrum operates iteratively, with three pillars of transparency, inspection, and adaptation ensuring effective project management. These principles collectively foster a flexible, value-driven, and continuously improving approach to complex project management.

Scrum values are a set of guiding principles that underpin the Scrum framework and promote collaboration, adaptability, and success in team-based projects. These values include Commitment, Focus, Openness, Respect, and Courage. They serve as a shared compass for Scrum teams, fostering a positive work environment and helping teams deliver high-quality products efficiently.

The Scrum Team comprises several key elements, including developers, a Product Owner, a Scrum Master, and stakeholders. This team operates with agile principles and values, focusing on self-management rather than self-organization, and plays a critical role in product development by combining diverse skills and expertise.

Scrum Events are essential ceremonies within the Scrum framework that help teams plan, collaborate, inspect, and adapt. These events include The Sprint, Sprint Planning, Sprint Backlog, Daily Scrum, Sprint Review, and Sprint Retrospective. Each event serves a specific purpose in promoting transparency, communication, and continuous improvement within the Scrum Team.

Scrum Artifacts are key documents and work items that enable transparency and guide the work within a Scrum framework. These artifacts include the Product Backlog, which outlines the product objectives, the Sprint Backlog, which commits to achieving a Sprint Goal, and the Increment, representing the potentially shippable product increment. The Definition of Done is a commitment that ensures the product meets quality standards. Agile practices are incorporated to optimize these artifacts and drive value delivery.
