EXIN Agile Scrum Foundation — Question 49

For the Development Team and the Scrum Master, the Daily Scrum is mandatory. Other roles may only participate without speaking.

What is the most important reason that other roles are not allowed to speak?

Answer options

• A. Because it is not a status meeting for all stockholders.
• B. Because other people speaking would let the meeting run late.
• C. Because the meeting is just for updating the work done.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The primary reason other roles cannot speak during the Daily Scrum is that it is not intended as a status update for all stakeholders, but rather a focused meeting for the Development Team and Scrum Master. Allowing others to speak could shift the focus away from the team's progress and goals, which is not the purpose of this meeting. The other options, while they may contain elements of truth, do not capture the fundamental principle behind the structure of the Daily Scrum.
