Reactions of the Scrum Master role for the Sprint Review event

Image
The Sprint Review event is one of the main events in the Scrum framework. Unlike other project management methodologies, Scrum requires a regular review of the work achieved. Reference:  https://bvop.org/learnagile/sprint-review/ In this article, we describe exemplary reactions to the Scrum Master role associated with this formal meeting.

Scrum Master answers the questions of their colleagues

When an organization first introduces Scrum to projects, teams may feel insecure about their work. In this article, we present sample answers to the Scrum Master role to other project members such as designers, project managers, and programmers. Question from the project manager Can I keep my current role as a project manager and not participate in Scrum roles? Scrum Master answers: The project management position is generally typical of traditional (Waterfall) project management. If Gergana has to participate in the project, then she is either part of the business (stakeholder) or part of the development team. She can keep her PM function on the Scrum team, but will only be part of the Scrum team if she works on project tasks. But then her main title may not be project manager, because it conflicts with Scrum.  Reference: Professional Scrum Master vs Professional Scrum Developer,  stc-montreal.org If it is part of the stakeholders, it will be communicated with through PO, ie....
