QuestionQ418

Delivery

A newly formed project team of 20 people from different functional areas will begin work next week. The team will work on a regulated, tightly controlled pharmaceutical product, but it has no subject-matter expertise.

Which two actions should the Scrum Master prioritize?

Choose two
  • A Schedule a meeting to engage stakeholders to prepare for kickoff.
  • B Schedule a meeting to agree to the goals for all future iterations.
  • C Guide the team to work collaboratively and share learnings.
  • D Organize a sprint planning meeting to define actions.
  • E Organize a meeting to outline roles and responsibilities.
Explanation

A Scrum Master should facilitate stakeholder collaboration when needed, which is especially important when the team lacks the specialized pharmaceutical and regulatory knowledge needed to begin effectively. The Scrum Master should also coach team members in cross-functionality and self-management; collaborative work and active sharing of learning build the knowledge and capability required of the Scrum Team. Scrum uses empirical, iterative planning rather than fixing all future iteration goals in advance, and the team self-manages its work rather than having individual responsibilities prescribed.
