This paper shows how Scrum project management practice can be described using Essence kernel and language which has recently been adopted as an official Object Management Group standard for creating and enacting software engineering methods. Practical benefits of using Essence as a common foundation for defining software engineering practices are demonstrated. These practical benefits include the ability to compare practices, assess potential gaps, make needed practice improvements, and assemble select practices into a coherent method to benefit the project team. In addition, by providing practical checklists, as opposed to conceptual discussions, the Essence-powered practice becomes something the team uses on a daily basis. This is a fundamental difference from traditional approaches, which tend to overemphasize method description as opposed to method use
