Scrum Mythbusters: The Scrum Master Can't Remove People From The Team
Show Notes

Scrum Masters can't remove someone from the team, right? That would harm trust, it would violate their self-organizing nature. But what if the dynamic in the team is so harmful that it is affecting a team's ability to work. What if Scrum crumbles because of a prolonged and unresolved conflict?

In this episode we dive into one of the toughest myths of Scrum. And by doing so, we explore the essence of what it means for the Scrum Master to be both and servant and a leader.
