QuestionQ243

Delivery

A software company is building an accounting software system to sell to customers. The team has worked on the project for six weeks and has strong velocity. A major stakeholder has approached the Scrum Master to request a bi-weekly status report because they believe they are not receiving adequate updates.

How should the Scrum Master respond to this request?

  • A Inform the stakeholder that all updates are provided in the sprint review sessions and encourage them to attend.
  • B Create and update bi-weekly project status reports for the stakeholder who requested the report.
  • C Escalate this to the stakeholder's supervisor because this is an unreasonable request.
  • D Ignore the stakeholder's request and continue working on the project as they have been for the past six weeks.
Explanation

The Sprint Review provides the regular forum in which the Scrum Team and key stakeholders inspect the Sprint outcome, discuss progress toward the Product Goal, and collaborate on what to do next. The Scrum Master should facilitate this stakeholder engagement and encourage attendance rather than create separate routine status reports.
