Are you the author?

Awesome diagram and I'd love to use that for our projects at work, but would probably get some pushback when management saw the "would make a good dictator", "kicks ass", etc.

If you are, any chance you could make a version with more "professional" descriptions?

Hi Matt. I'm the author. Thanks for the compliments on the scrum diagram. I felt that a little humor would lighten up an otherwise dull subject.

But if the humor causes your management team to have an aneurysm, there are 2 things that you should do immediately:

1) Try printing out the diagram and hand it to the managers that would give you pushback. I take a $20 bet that they will never read the questionable comments to ever object about it. If I'm wrong, email me your address and I'll send you a crisp $20 bill. :-)

2) After waiting a day to confirm my suspicions, bring the questionable comments to their attention. If they do give you push back, it's time you find another employer. This company is focused on the wrong things. My company is always hiring: http://www.axosoft.com/company/jobs

No, I am not the author, but dropping the author an email and asking couldn't hurt - hamids[at]axosoft[dot]com

Thanks for posting this, saved. The video it points to is also looking quite kickass too.
