Excellent practice of software delivery in Scrum is an extremely difficult skill to master. Don't expect easy answers, but seek out a rigorous course of mastery. Be wary of those who flatter with easy paths to success and cherish those who challenge your ego.

Step one, and don't ignore this:

This is your first mentor. I recommend reading it once a day for 2 weeks. Ask someone to quiz you on it until you know it back wards and forwards. This is the first form, like when learning a martial art. Think on it deeply and concentrate first on what it says to do. Then just do it. If you have questions, give your sensei the benefit of the doubt and just get good at understanding and executing the basic forms.

After that, explore the "why's" behind the roles, events, artifacts and rules. For reading I recommend:

Scrum: A Pocket Guide

At this stage, it's imperative to find a mentor, someone who has progressed through this "why" stage and can guide you efficiently in this next stage of learning and will help you avoid harmful pitfalls. Look online, in forums, maybe this sub, local meetups, name brand web sites like Scrum.org and keep looking until you find this person. All people will approach this stage of mastery and have the temptation to proclaim, "I've got this!" when they don't. They are on the edge of true understanding and wisdom.

Beyond this is true mastery and expertise. This is where folks tend to write their own playbooks and is beyond the scope of this suggestion. Feel free to reach out to me with any specific questions you may have.
