(choose the best two answers)

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A, D

https://www.scrum.org/resources/what-is-a-scrum-masterThe Scrum Master serves the Scrum Team by coaching them and the organization how to work empirically, which means using an evidence-based approach to inspect and adapt the product and the process1.The Scrum Master also facilitates Scrum events as requested or needed, such as the Sprint Planning, the Daily Scrum, the Sprint Review, and the Sprint Retrospective2.The Scrum Master ensures that these events are positive, productive, and kept within the timebox2.

The Scrum Master does not resolve every impediment that the Developers run into, but rather helps them to remove or overcome those impediments themselves3. The Scrum Master also does not never intervene in matters of the Scrum Team, but rather balances between providing guidance and allowing autonomy. The Scrum Master is not a passive observer, but an active servant leader who supports the team in achieving their goals.

Surprised that some think the Scrum Master shouldn't intervene at all!

I think autonomy is important, but the Scrum Master should still help.

I’m a bit confused about B. I thought the Scrum Master helps with impediments, but not necessarily resolves every single one.

I practiced a similar question, and I think D makes sense because facilitating events is a key role of the Scrum Master.

I'm not entirely sure, but I feel like the Scrum Master shouldn't resolve every impediment. That sounds too hands-on, maybe C is correct?

I remember that the Scrum Master is supposed to coach the team, so I think A might be one of the right answers.

Okay, I've got this. The Scrum Master's job is to coach the team and the organization on empirical practices, and to facilitate the Scrum events as needed. Resolving every impediment or staying completely hands-off doesn't sound right. I'll go with A and D.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. The Scrum Master is supposed to help the team, but I'm not sure if they should just resolve every impediment or let the team be completely autonomous. I'll have to think this through a bit more.

I'm a little confused by this question. The Scrum Master is supposed to help the team, but the options seem to be a bit extreme. I don't think the Scrum Master should resolve every single impediment, but they also shouldn't just let the team be completely autonomous. I'll have to re-read the Scrum guide to make sure I understand this properly.

This seems like a straightforward question. I'd go with option B and review the capability model from the NA implementation. That should give the APAC team a good high-level overview to scope their priorities.

I've got a good feeling about this one. The requirements make it pretty clear that we need to use an application object to connect the applicants and positions. I'm leaning towards the lookup field approach.

Option D about career advancement seems completely irrelevant here. This is about doing the right thing for the organization, not personal gain. I'd go with B.

I'm a bit confused by the options here. I'll need to review my notes on PIAs to determine the primary objective before selecting an answer.
