Experience gained by other individuals can definitely overcome the lack thereof in other people. Of course there is the question of opportunity cost. Even the team that is able to overcome these weaknesses sacrifices efficiency while investing the resources to address them. On the other hand, newly graduated programmers may be more willing to adapt to a flexible development methodology since they have had less time to harden their opinion about how things should be done. I wonder if the lack of experience can be offset (at least partially) by the willingness to try something new. Agree.

It might take a bit more work from the Scrum Master perspective but it can be done. Good post.
