This article is part of our How To Use Yanado<\/a> series<\/em><\/p>\n

In our Ultimate\u00a0Guide\u00a0to Scrum\u00a0Project Management Framework<\/a>, \u00a0we tackled the essentials of Scrum as one of the most popular agile frameworks used by software development teams.<\/p>\n

For Scrum to be performed successfully, you need a collaborative environment, where Scrum team members are actively communicating and reviewing their work against what they commit to accomplish during the iterations\/sprints.<\/p>\n

To make this possible, team members need to understand the big picture.<\/p>\n

This means they must have a clear understanding of Sprint goals and the work required to achieve them.<\/p>\n

\"big-picture\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

If team members don\u2019t understand how their work fits into the team as a whole, it stifles collaboration and cross communication, leaving no room for improvement.<\/p>\n

For better teamwork, a collaboration space is needed. This is where a project management tool comes as a support. The simpler and easier to use, the better.<\/p>\n

There are tons of project management tools out there to run your software projects using Scrum framework. And they all get the job done (more or less).<\/p>\n

But a project management tool can quickly manage you. Sometimes, it can feel like you spend more time working the tool, instead of getting work done.<\/p>\n

All you need is a simple way to visualize and track the work being done during the Sprints in order for team members to stay aligned.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe effectiveness of any tool is the discipline [enterprise-wide] to use it well.\u201d –\u00a0Peter Saddington<\/a><\/span><\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

So let\u2019s see how to make this possible with Yanado.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Step #1 Setting Up A Collaborative Space for Better Teamwork<\/h2>\n

First, your Scrum process needs to be visualized and tracked in one place, accessible to everyone on the team.<\/p>\n

To make one in Yanado, start with creating a separate List<\/em> naming it Sprints<\/em>, as an example.<\/p>\n

Invite users to the List<\/em> to put everyone on the Scrum team (Product Owner<\/a>, Scrum Master<\/a>, Development team<\/a>).<\/p>\n

Next, you need a well structured process to fit into the Scrum framework.<\/p>\n

To do this in Yanado, we suggest you create the following Statuses<\/em> inside the Sprints List<\/em>:<\/p>\n
