The revised roster of the Scrum Guidance Body after a membership review, reflecting any additions of new members and removals or voluntary departures of existing members.
Key Points
- Produced after assessing who should serve on the Scrum Guidance Body.
- Can add new subject matter experts and remove or accept resignations of current members.
- Ensures governance guidance stays relevant, unbiased, and aligned with organizational needs.
- Changes are documented, communicated, and given an effective date for transparency.
Example
During a quarterly review, a company evaluates its Scrum Guidance Body and decides to add a DevOps lead and a data privacy specialist while removing a retired compliance officer. The organization publishes the updated membership list and notes the effective date so all Scrum Teams know whom to consult for standards and practices.
