Congratulations, it's your first day on the job as a #scrummaster and you're probably super excited about all the opportunities that lie ahead of you.  

Your #productowner and #developmentteam have probably been working together for some time before you arrived and they should have an established way of getting things done so don't worry about walking in day one and having to change the entire organisation.  

You can take your time, embed yourself in the team, and start to develop your influence and credibility within the organisation.  

So, what do seasoned and experienced Scrum Masters do differently to newbie scrum masters and how can you learn from them?  

In this short video, John McFadyen walks us through the difference between experienced Scrum Masters and those who have just set out on their apprenticeship journey.  

John has worked on some of the highest performing #scrum teams as both a Scrum Master and #agilecoach. He has also worked on the coalface of some of the UK and Europe's largest, most complex #agiletransformations so he knows a thing or two about high-performing scrum masters and agile coaches in high-pressure #agile environments.
