A SCRUM Master is a facilitator in the SCRUM framework, which is used in agile project management. Their primary role is to ensure that the SCRUM team follows the principles and practices of SCRUM, helping to improve team dynamics and productivity. They remove obstacles that may hinder the team's progress and promote a collaborative environment. In addition to facilitating meetings like the daily stand-up and sprint planning, the SCRUM Master also serves as a coach for the team, guiding them in self-organization and continuous improvement. They act as a bridge between the team and external stakeholders, ensuring clear communication and alignment on project goals.
