Scrum Questions Answered AMA Live August

14 More Scrum Questions Answered [August 25]

Did you get a chance to catch the livestream last week?

If not, here is a recording of 14 more questions Agile professionals asked me during the event.

There were some tough ones this time (as any time, really). And I believe I managed to give some great answers. See the list of questions here below with timestamps.

I hope that I was able to answer a question you had and give you some insights ou can implement in your work.

  • 3:11 – Can a scrum master work with multiple teams or one scrum master per team?
  • 6:15 – Can you talk about your path to become PST? How long did it take you to become the PST?
  • 11:38 – How does the scrum master deal with global teams who are working on the same product but on different instances which may cause the product backlog goal to not be aligned because of geographical needs?
  • 16:02 – What is the best way to track/ report analytics for the a. Team b. Management?
  • 18:56 – Is there a difference between the metrics you would track for the team and for management?
  • 21:14 – How does a scrum master help product owners who are from different geo using the same product but are on a diff instances because of geographical needs come up with a product backlog goal?
  • 22:40 – We are using JIRA for product backlog. What’s your recommended tool for product backlog?
  • 25:47 – Tools to help with prioritization and how to prioritize?
  • 32:06 – Are you familiar with mobbing or “ensemble programming”? It seems like something a scrum master would encourage, or atleast support an experiment. What about scrum masters’ ongoing role with mobilizing?
  • 36:04 – How do you create awareness for leadership/ management, that they are creating/ causing an unhealthy environment (no psych, safety, no healthy failure culture, etc) they don’t want to be coached?
  • 40:01 – I completed my PSM – how can I start getting scrum experience? I’m just starting this career journey.
  • 43:11 – How does sprint forecasting work?
  • 47:10 – What’s the best way to break up a feature into user stories for analysis, development and testing?
  • 52:26 – What do you think about one single person being the scrum master of multiple teams, synergy/antipattern?

Next month I’ll be hosting another livestream, so come on over with your questions. And to be sure to not miss it next time, follow me on all of my social media channels to stay posted.
