Scrum Master
Project Management Professional glossary · Project Management Professional
Definition
The accountability responsible for the effectiveness of the team and the process, impediment removal, and coaching.
Scrum Master in plain English
Imagine a kitchen that plates food every two weeks: the menu (backlog) gets clarified before cooking, the chefs only commit to what fits the shift, and the plate doesn't leave until it meets a shared "done" checklist. Scrum Master is one of the rules that keeps that kitchen from chaos. Hold onto this precise job description: The accountability responsible for the effectiveness of the team and the process, impediment removal, and coaching. On a stem, name whether Scrum Master is about timing, ownership, measurement, or delivery style — then eliminate the answer that borrows a cousin concept from the wrong phase.
