I joined Regional Scrum Gathering Tokyo 2021 held on 6-8 Jan.
https://2021.scrumgatheringtokyo.org/
It was an amazing event, organized as a mixed style of online and onsite this year. I enjoyed it a lot from the online. I watched many interesting sessions. Even after the event, we gathered on Discord to watch the recorded videos and have a talk.
At the event, I talked about rethinking Scrum from a Japanese cultural perspective.
I have been working for Rakuten, Inc. for more than 10 years introducing Scrum to many teams. Last year, I was supporting a guy from oversea who joined the company at that time, he asked many questions to me and we talked a lot everyday.
Answering his questions, I gradually understood his idea. It was totally different way of thinking for me. At the same time, I also understood how I think based on the Japanese culture.
From that experience, I found the Japanese people may have a different perspective for Scrum. That's why I had this talk.
In the session, I talked about
- Does Scrum look the same from Japanese culture and another culture?
- Why is it so challenging to adopt Scrum in Japan?
- Rethink Scrum
I'm glad if you enjoy my session video. I hope to join it onsite next year :)
