Many people think that removing impediments is the primary responsibility of a #scrummaster but that isn't the case. Teaching the team to rely on the scrum master to remove impediments creates a dependency which is the opposite of what a scrum master aims to achieve.  

Instead, the scrum master is looking to create an environment where the team can excel in a creative and collaborative manner. They are responsible for building autonomous, self-managing teams that are hyper-productive.  

John McFadyen has worked with some of the most high-performing #scrum teams in the world. He has worked on some of the UK and Europe's largest, most compex #agile transformations.  

In this short video, John walks us through the primary responsibility of a scrum master and dispels the myth that scrum masters are simply there to remove impediments to the #scrumteam.
