Professional Scrum Master II (PSM II) — Question 190

A Development Team, that has remote team members, typically spends time before the Daily Scrum to setup the meeting rooms and conference calling equipment and tools in order to have their Daily Scrum.
How should the Scrum Master handle this situation?

Answer options

• B. Setup the meeting and tell the Development Team that is how it will be done.
• C. Ask the Development Team members to alternate who is responsible for meeting setup.
• D. Inform management and ask them to solve it.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because the Scrum framework emphasizes self-management and empowerment of the Development Team. The other options either impose control, which contradicts Scrum principles, or shift responsibility to management, which should not interfere with the Scrum process.
