Agile Product Hub - Deep Dives

Scrum Master Lighthouse Strategic System Steward


Listen Later

As Agile teams mature, the role of the Scrum Master is too often seen as expendable. But what if that perception misses the deeper evolution of the craft?

In this episode, Matt reflects on the Scrum Master’s journey from ritual facilitator to system steward. Drawing from How to Navigate the Agile Journey as a Scrum Master (Chapters 2, 4, 6, and 8), he explores how real impact often lies not in what’s visible, but in what’s sensed, shaped, and sustained across the system.

Expect a mix of insight and reflection on:

  • How mature teams still benefit from strategic system support
  • The difference between surface-level agility and true sustainable pace
  • Coaching the organisation, not just the team
  • The quiet leadership that holds space for trust, clarity, and coherence

This episode is for Scrum Masters ready to evolve, and leaders who think they’ve outgrown the role. The lighthouse still matters — especially when the waters look deceptively calm.
