NEW QUESTION 34
Steven is a Scrum Master employed by the engineering department. The Director of Engineering considers using Scrum for a new project but wonders about the value of having all of the Development Team members attend the Daily Scrum. He is concerned that the employees already attend a lot of mandatory company meetings.
What are two outcomes of the Daily Scrum that Steven should explain on why the Daily Scrum is important? (Choose two.)
- A. Through the short, daily alignment of the Daily Scrum the members of the Development Team grow and improve a shared understanding of the most important work to be undertaken in the next 24 hours to achieve the best possible progress toward the Sprint Goal. This daily opportunity to inspect and adapt will enable the Development Team to best tackle any unforeseen circumstances that might otherwise disrupt the team's progress.
- B. During the Daily Scrum the members of the Development Team will inform of problems that are hindering their progress, and for which they have no means to resolve. They will inform Steven as a Scrum Master, so he can remove the impediments and help the team be more productive.

- D. The Development Team members will produce a daily status report indicating how much time was spent working on individual tasks since the last Daily Scrum. The reports will help in discussing how the Sprint went at the Sprint Review meeting.

- E. The Daily Scrum serves for the Development Team to report to Steven, as a Scrum Master, all updates on the assigned tasks in the Sprint Backlog. He can then use the team's updates to plan their work for the next day, making sure that every team member is assigned the right tasks.
Answer: A,B
Explanation:
The Development Team uses the Daily Scrum to inspect progress toward the Sprint Goal and to inspect how progress is trending toward completing the work in the Sprint Backlog. The Daily Scrum optimizes the probability that the Development Team will meet the Sprint Goal. Every day, the Development Team should understand how it intends to work together as a self-organizing team to accomplish the Sprint Goal and create the anticipated Increment by the end of the Sprint.

Explanation
Explanation:
The Scrum Master is responsible for serving the team by facilitating and removing impediments to ensure there are minimal roadblocks in the way of the team. The Scrum Master also coaches the Scrum Team and organization to ensure the benefits of Scrum is realized.
"Removing every impediment for the Development Team" may seem like the right thing to do but by doing it this way, the Dev Team's ability to self-organize would be limited. There are some impediments that will depend solely on the Scrum Master and there will be some that require collaboration with the Dev Team. The former might be working with the finance department to renew services that the team is using. The latter might be lack of skills to make a particular item done. The Scrum Master can coach the team on finding different solutions to resolve the issue.
"Removing impediments" is good. "Removing every impediment for the Development Team" is not so good and sometimes not even possible.
