Scrum Mythbusters: Story Points are required in Scrum
Show Notes

Why do we estimate work in Scrum? Are Story Points the best way to do this? And what about #noestimates? In this episode we address the myth that Scrum requires all work to be estimated in Story Points. In the process, we already explore what the purpose of estimation is in Scrum, and how it is very different from plan-based approaches.
