Certified Scrum Master (CSM) – GAQM — Question 34

What is the primary objective of the daily scrum?

Answer options

• A. To share with the team what each member has completed in the Sprint, what each member will work on next, and to report progress roadblocks
• B. To give a status report to the Product Owner on what each member has completed in the Sprint, what each member will work on next, and to report progress roadblocks.
• C. To discuss work details with the team since every team member must attend the meeting
• D. To give a status report to the Scrum Master on what each member has completed in the Sprint, what each member will work on next, and to report progress roadblocks.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The primary objective of the daily scrum is to facilitate team communication regarding completed work, upcoming tasks, and any obstacles, which aligns with option A. Options B and D incorrectly focus on reporting to the Product Owner and Scrum Master respectively, which is not the main purpose of the meeting. Option C, while emphasizing team discussion, does not capture the specific goal of sharing progress and identifying roadblocks.
