My presentation at Agile Korea 2013, Sept.7
Scrum is a word used in "New Product Development" first by Ikujiro Nonaka. I explained his knowledge creation model, SECI.
1. People as the conveyor of the knowledge
2. Mindmapping for User Interview
Let's break the wall between developers and users!!

17. Quote from the first
Scrum Book
• “Agile Software Development with Scrum” (by
Ken Schwaber, Mike Beedle) starts with the
following quote.
The "relay race" approach to product
development ... may conflict with the goals
of maximum speed and flexibility. Instead a
holistic or "rugby" approach – where the
team tries to go the distance as a unit,
passing the ball back and forth – may better
serve today's competitive requirements.
-- “The New New Product Development Game”

Organizational Knowledge Creation
SECI Model
Sharing and creating
tacit knowledge
through direct
experience
I = Individual, G = Group, O = Organization, E = Environment
Learning and
acquiring new tacit
knowledge in
practice
1. Perceiving reality
as it is
2. Sensing and
Empathizing with
others and the
environment
3. Transferring of
tacit knowledge
9. Embodying explicit
knowledge through
action and reflection
10. Using simulation and
experiments
Articulating tacit
knowledge through
dialogue and
reflection
4. Articulating tacit
knowledge using
symbolic language
5. Translating tacit
knowledge into a
concept or prototype
Systemizing and
applying explicit
knowledge and
information
6. Gathering and
integrating explicit
knowledge
7. Breaking down the
concept and finding
relationships among
the concepts
8. Editing and
systemizing explicit
knowledge

Contemplation in Action:
Indwelling in Actuality with Deep Thinking
“I can see many things
when I see a machine. How
can we maneuver through
that curve? We should do
this, we should do that....
Then I think about the next
machine. We can make a
faster machine if we think
like this, and so on. It’s a
natural progress into the
next step.”

The person(s) who had the first belief, should run through the whole process
As the conveyer of knowledge.
