What does a day of a Scrum Master look like? Ok, in this reel I’m not really showing you the full day. It’s just a snippet of a couple of hours I spent with the team. What I’ve done during that morning: ✅ Attended a couple of meetings with the team such as refinement and daily scrum. ✅ Organized a few call for the upcoming days with a few people who I haven’t met yet ✅ Reviewed my 50+ pages of notes and highlighted the key insights ✅ Created a visualized overview of the team structures and org chart ✅ Started my Agile assessment presentation.

    1. I don’t really use an app, I just talk to people 🙂 I also asked for an org chart from the managers, but then drew my understanding of how different teams interact in my notebook and confirmed with the teams

  1. I’m currently at uni doing a placement year as a software developer, but being a scrum master has always been a goal? what’s the best way to get there?

  2. I was recently introduced to this field and am doing beginner research on it…is it possible to do scrum management part-time initially? I have a very good full-time job that I am not looking to quit….yet.

  3. Sorry but is that a camera on the wall? If yes why? Was it required by your employer to have one or personal preference.

    1. The black thingy on the wall is just a wall mount for a light that I don’t use anymore. I should really take it down. Apart from that I only have my main camera in front of me that I actively use.

  4. I love your setup. I have been looking to find a good solution for multi cam settings when I do my remote workshops. But I still need space for my daily scrum master space. Yours looks really nice 😊

    1. Thanks! It took me 2 years to finally set it up in a way that I like. I have all of my hardware setup explained on the website, in the store.

  5. I see a lot of hardware and monitors on your desk.
    Is is necessary? What should I have to make my work most effectice? What would you reccomend to get?

    1. Some of the hardware here is for filming, really. But if you want to appear more professional for your online meetings, having a better camera, microphone and lights can be great.

      I like having two big monitors as I can have several different windows open at the same time. The small monitor in front of me is attached to a teleprompter. So when I am on a call I can look directly into the camera when I speak and I can see meeting participants in the monitor. It’s a great setup.

  6. I liked your video. But I’m feeling very disappointed. I got the certification PSM I on January, but since that time I can’t get a job. I’m Brazilian, Project Manager and I ain’t got any job now. Could you help me how to get a good job?

    1. How have you adapted your resume for the job? Since you don’t have experience, what else do you offer to your potential employer?

    1. Oh, look, another Scrum hater who doesn’t know what he’s talking about. Based on another comment you left, you don’t even attend your team meetings.

    2. As I said above, you have no idea what you are talking about.
      But at least you admit that you have no idea what the purpose of those meetings are and you are unwilling to learn.
      It’s easier to blame “the system” when the real problem is how you are doing it.

      Imagine you go to a fitness instructor because you want to lose some weight and get some muscle. He tells you that you need to exercise 1 hour a day. But as you start doing it, your motivation dwindles. It’s hard. It requires patience and commitment. You don’t have it. 3 months later you complain that you didn’t build any muscle. So your response is: “this instructor is useless, exercising is pointless”.

      Many people who blame Scrum or a Scrum Master for all their problems do exactly that. They are unwilling to do the things right and then wonder why their job sucks.

      And before you say “I love my job, it’s just this stupid Scrum that makes my job hell”. Let me ask you this: do you love just sitting in a silo and doing your thing (like coding all day)? Cause while the company hired you for this skill, they actually expect you to be able to deliver on a higher scale, not just your single task, and that requires you to effectively work as part of a team – this is what Scrum is trying to help you do smoother.

      Damn.. that got long 😂 Sunday mornings, man

    3. @ScrumMastered “like coding all day”. That says everything I need to know. You have no idea what software engineering is.

    4. @ScrumMastered we don’t just sit down at a computer and start typing. You push this idea that programmers are mindless drones. You need us. We don’t need you.

  7. I absolutely love your setup. Slack is awesome. It’s perfect for real time communication
