Nexus Framework for Scaling Scrum, The: Continuously Delivering an Integrated Product with Multiple Scrum Teams (The Professional Scrum Series) 1st Edition
Purchase options and add-ons
Today, organizations want to scale Scrum to ever larger and more complex projects, driving the benefits of agility throughout the enterprise. But most conventional solutions to scaling agility have added complexity and deviated from the principles that make Scrum so attractive. The Nexus Framework for Scaling Scrum introduces a better approach, reflecting the authors' many years of applying and scaling Scrum in multiple industries.
Three leading Scrum.org experts introduce the Nexus Framework, showing how it enables smooth integration among multiple Scrum teams, as well as highly-effective collaboration with non-Scrum teams working on the same project. Drawing on their immense experience, they explain what Nexus is, how it works, and how it solves agile scalability problems that have bedeviled organizations for years. Next, they offer start-to-finish guidance for applying Nexus Framework principles throughout your own organization. You will walk through forming a Nexus, organizing work in a Nexus environment, managing and enabling a Nexus, and much more―all you need to succeed with Scrum in even the most challenging global projects.

Nexus is the “official” Scrum.org framework and this book is the book that goes well with the official Nexus™ Guide.
An excelent companion!
So why only 4 stars? There were several areas with typos that should have been caught and in a textbook, that should be scrutinized a bit more. These were small and scarce but still think should be found in editing, it didn't make the book unreadable by any means though. My biggest reason is because there are numerous diagrams and graphics in the book that were designed with color but printed in black and white. Had these been printed in color, it would have helped visual learners like myself.
Overall, it's a great book and well worth buying.
With this evolving team case, you can learn more about how to apply Nexus to complex issues. For those who want to pass SPS certification, it is recommended that you read this book.
It can help you to deal with dependencies working with multiple teams while you are working out to evaluate from component to feature teams.
PS:
In too many cases, first the author set the stage how the 'best teams' perform if the point he is about to make about Nexus gets done properly. And then Nexus triumphs (which may or not, it all depends from how bad is the economy, how easy is to replace workers etc - worst is the economy more chances are to succeed, better it is, employees rather quit than face humiliation in scrambles or bad deals to start with ).
E.g The below sentence: "The joy of getting things done, together, is the best motivation a team can experience." which within 12 years applying scrum I never have seen this, or such kind of motivation. Indeed the best motivation is individual financial compensation and the title within the team which Scrum doesn't even recognize. It's exactly the same motivation which make hundred thousands of H1bs leave their own countries and start working in a foreign one. Once Scrum gets introduced , fraction among the team members grows exponentially while the management enjoys it so much - seeing human nature at best competing for little tiny things that hurt them more rather than getting into a healthy environment... well, it is all different subject I agree, and the author should have stayed out of it, or at least not sugar it up...
