- 15. A Scrum Master is NOT the team lead! I had to repeat this at least once a day. A Scrum Master is NOT the communicator for the team. Any team member can talk to any stakeholder if they desire. A Scrum Master is NOT the decision maker for the team. New York, USA

- 21. When I've played the role, I have played it as one who is responsible for continuous improvement. So there is the dull bits of calling meetings and the more material contribution of removing obstacles and identifying non-value-adding wastes. It's partly practical work and partly culture work. It even gets into personal interaction coaching sometimes. But all-in-all, about helping the team improve value/effort ratio. Greater Chicago Area, USA Tim Ottinger

- 31. I just wanted to comment from product management point of view that I saw the demo of configuration UI last week for the first time and I was positively impressed where we are at the moment. In my mind this company is now closer than ever in the history to run the product and implement the customer how those supposed to be implemented in 21st century (regarding one of our core historic product) – thanks for that. You have gone a long way and I am sure you will be able to deliver continuing like that. Where we are (May)?

Hinweis der Redaktion
- So, it seems this talk might be useful for many of you.
- Interesting and all great interpretations of the SM role. For me I think of myself as the foundation of the team. Think of a house. The foundation holds everyone (room) so that they can do what they do best. A kitchen to cook in, a bathroom to use, a den to play in, and bedrooms to sleep in. Each room has its purpose as each team member brings a skill. The SM makes sure the Agile team members have their needs met in order to produce a top of the line product that adheres to the Product Owner vision. The SM is a space holder......... How do you think, can you live without a house?
- In my experience the best Scrum Masters combine aspects of arbiter, cheerleader, coach, facilitator, teacher, servant leader and standup comedian; they do in such a way as to eventually make themselves nearly dispensable on mature, performant agile teams by having fostered the team to be largely self-organizing. So yeah, planned obsolescence to a degree...
- Props to @Timothy: A SM has to find a way to talk/listen to each team member and stake holder without the authority of a management title. I find that a sense of humor is essential (i.e., stand-up comedian) because once explored and discovered, people relax and tell their truth. The art form is that everyone is different. I find it easier to 'perform' in front of a large audience compared to a contentious grooming meeting.
- So, 4 years ago I started as a process guy whose first task was to analyze how services are developed. What’s the development process in other words. By getting to know different services, their “teams” I soon realized that process is barely visible, teams(?) are scattered among countrie and the biggest problem was backlogs. Those were either hard to find or hard to understand. However, there was that company wide PLM process existing with also Scum framework inside, which was constantly been improved and I was part of that as well. We basically worked on these processes on paper and delivered trainings to variety of people. But still the real work according to PLM was very siloed.
- Then after around a year or so, new SDU started to form and we started to grow in Riga. I became a manager of process quality in SDU. My main task was to make sure that those processes in PLM that include SDU (Scrum), actually work and are being followed in SDU. But I was more in a paper position and all that quality management lead actually nowhere because I was focusing more on the processes than people.
- Around 2 years ago I was inside one “project” where we were investigating new possibilities of ALM solutions in TFS 2012, including Visual Studio Scrum process template + Urban Turtle - a nice TFS add-on for Agile project management - this was kind of trial to improve toolset as well for SDU and beyond. And then this new platform project was ready to start and came into the picture and somehow I managed to put together these all things, kind of a perfect storm case and AHA moment literally happened - I realised that all is there for Scrum to work, but we are missing the Scrum Master and I moved into that immediately!
- Since I have embraced Scrum and Scrum Mastering in particular, I feel a lot happier at work. I come to work with joy. I do not wait for weekends as some place in calendar to hide away. Why? Because it feels good working with people, it feels good when you see people succeeding. It feels good when people together as a group succeed. Because when people succeed, business succeeds too!
