Emergence definition

Scrum emerges as a structured iterative development method that builds upon the organized arrangement of matter, where particles occupy space and interact with energy, exhibiting patterns that govern its transformations and binding, and the shape or arrangement that matter takes, as the particles that make up matter interact and transform in space, to facilitate self-organizing teams working in short cycles to deliver incremental software increments through continuous feedback and adaptation.
