Scrum is a useful tool for the creation, maintenance, plan, and execution of diverse products and services. The tool consists of important roles, rules, events, and artifacts that create “a framework within which people can address complex adaptive problems, while productively and creatively delivering products of the highest possible value”.
Scrum Master
The Scrum Master is at the core of project success, They are involved at each stage and helps remove impediments or issues that may hinder success. They are a key promoter and translator of the framework, with a central tasking being to help the scrum team understand the Scrum theory and principles, the scrum practices, rules, and values”. Additionally, one central responsibility of the Scrum Master is maintaining, coordinating, and facilitating communication and /or relations between each of the core and non-core roles.
Roles and their Differences in Scrum Projects
Understanding and applying roles within scrum is central to project success. The roles involved in the scrum process can be categorized into two groups: core and non-core. Briefly, core roles consist of the central and every day involved members of a scrum team, while the non-core roles consist of external persons, organizations, or groups that are interested in or involved in the project but are less hands-on than core members. These roles, and how they are related to the Scrum Master, will be discussed below.
