When the term Scrum moves into Politics and Media

While it is commonplace to see the term “scrum” in either Agile circles or when discussing the sport of Rugby, I have recently noticed that the term scrum is being used in political and media circles more and more (see three recent news articles below).  While I suspect that the usage of scrum is really coming from those familiar with Rugby, I wonder if there are those in the media or politics that have an affinity with those who work in Agile and Scrum related circles?  What do you think?

It would be interesting to see if more and more Scrum and Agile related terms become infused into our political, media, and other lexicon.  In any case, I wish you all a very happy and successful New Year!

Cheers to one and all!

  1. I am studying futures studies and I started to search more facts related to Agile and Scrum from political view. From Marketing side I have had been developing this framework agile marketing since 2009. I believe that in order to fully move to the next level the politics needs to be more agile.
