LeSS in 1 Minute

There are plenty of agile frameworks for scaling, like SAFe or Nexus, but they can sometimes be complicated. If you’re really looking for a simple solution, take a look at LeSS.

LeSS, for Large Scale Scrum, is a Scrum framework for bringing agility to scale. Imagine an orchestra, everyone plays their part. And you just need one conductor to set the pace, to keep things moving forward, and everyone plays in harmony together.

With LeSS, it’s the same thing: two to eight teams work on the same product, in the same sprint, with the same Sprint Goal.

So what sets LeSS apart from other frameworks? Other frameworks tend to add new roles, new responsibilities, new events.
LeSS chose not to do that, and to keep things as simple as possible. You keep Scrum, you just add more teams.

And that’s the whole philosophy of LeSS, doing more with less.

In summary, LeSS is Scrum, with no new roles, no added ceremonies, just multiple teams working within the same sprint and on the same Sprint Goal.
