In-Depth: Does Scrum Only Work In Small Organizations?

The Liberators Season 1 Episode 102

A common belief among Agile practitioners is that Scrum works best in smaller organizations. Things are simpler there, and you don't have all those impediments of your typical corporate. Since much of our day-to-day experience is also with smaller to medium-sized businesses, we are also included to believe this.

But is it consistent with the facts? We believe that you should always ground your beliefs in evidence as much as possible. So we explored scientific studies and performed our analyses on data from ~2.000 teams to find out. The results may surprise you, and we take time to try to understand why it's so different than we expected.
