How can Scrum adapt to different team sizes and skillsets?

Short answer: For small teams (3–5): Communication is simpler.

Explain a bit more

Roles may overlap more (e.g., devs test their own work). For larger teams (8+): Consider splitting into multiple Scrum Teams working on the same product, aligned by a Scaled Scrum approach (e.g., Nexus, LeSS). Use communities of practice for specialized skill-sharing. Follow On: For varied skillsets: Promote cross-training to reduce silos. Use pair programming, knowledge sharing sessions, and code walkthroughs. Example: In a team with only one QA, developers start writing automated tests and review each other’s code to balance the workload.

1. Define — one clear sentence (the short answer above).
2. Example — relate it to a project like ShopNest or your real work.
3. Trade-off — when you would not use it.
