Streamline project management and boost team productivity with a Scrum board tailored to each project's needs.
Let Scrum boards improve your next project’s efficiency and collaboration
The Scrum framework — an Agile project management method — focuses on continuous improvement of a project’s iterations by a small team with set roles.
Scrum teams need a product owner who understands the ideal outcome, a Scrum master who manages workflow, and a team to execute the to-dos. Tracking everything in one place lets everyone know how tasks are progressing.
Add a Scrum board to your Notion teamspace in order to:
Understand who’s responsible for which items
Easily check the status of everyone’s tasks
Monitor their progress toward outcomes
Identify task dependencies to improve collaboration and prevent delays

Scrum and Kanban are two ways to manage projects.
