Magdalena discusses her transition from traditional project management to Scrum. In 2008, while experiencing project delays and rapid business environment changes, she discovered Scrum in a project management course, finding it a revelation for addressing these challenges.


Firlit highlights a pivotal moment in her journey: recognizing Scrum's ability to respond to market changes and customer needs, previously overlooked in traditional project management approaches. This realization initiated discussions about adopting new methodologies within her organization.


Her Scrum Master journey involved a professional transformation and a shift in personal mindset and habits. After a few years in various roles related to agile coaching and product management, she found passion and happiness in these new methodologies.


Firlit emphasizes the evolving role of a Scrum Master, stressing the importance of focusing on organizational aspects and value orientation rather than just team-level concerns and basic practices. She discusses challenges in organizational culture and the need for openness to change.


Lastly, she advises aspiring Scrum Masters to focus on the broader organizational context and product ownership, emphasizing the need to understand and respond to complexity, market changes, and technology advancements. She recommends thinking beyond team effectiveness and tool usage to include organizational agility and product outcomes.
