Part 32 in our #scrummaster #interviewquestions series where John McFadyen answers common questions asked of scrum masters and #agilecoaches in interviews and client engagements.  

This is a tricky one because it implies that a #scrummaster acts like a traditional #projectmanager in a #projectmanagement environment rather than as an agile coach, mentor and teacher.  

The interviewer either doesn't understand the role of a scrum master or they are actively looking for someone who will 'drive' results within the #scrumteam so it's a tough one to get right.  

In this short video, John McFadyen explains how a scrum master can work with the #scrumteam to ensure that items are actioned and completed within reasonable or agreed time frames.
