Explain the roles in Scrum methodology and the different steps and phases of the process. Show the audience what role they play in the process by highlighting where they fall, and explaining how their part is essential. You can choose to use outline icons with thick or thin loops, as well as customize colors to better represent your audience, brand, or project.

Software development is rarely a one-level process. Show your trainees or other audience members how Scrum fits into the process, and what other components are involved. You may modify the labels to match your organization and change the icons to be a better representative of your processes as a whole.

Use Flowchart Diagrams to Explain Stages

Once you’ve explained what spring planning looks like or what Scrum meetings entail, you can utilize icons like these to represent them in your timeline. Whichever style of design you choose, both can be effective at helping you minimize the amount of text on your slides. This will keep your presentations from being overwhelming but will allow you to provide a lot of information in a short span.

Visual aids helps you to explain the Scrum methodology and process in your organization in a clear way. When you use graphical symbols and shapes, you can provide your audience with a simple-to-follow way of of presenting this agile methodology.
