Agile Mindset

Correct Answer: Work with the team to review estimates and help improve their sprint planning process

The correct answer embraces an Agile mindset by focusing on continuous learning, improvement, and collaboration. The wrong answers suggest non-Agile strategies that do not promote adaptability, self-organization, or sustainable pace.

Correct Answer: During the next sprint planning meeting

The Agile mindset values flexibility; however, changes to priority or scope should be addressed at the next sprint planning meeting to avoid disrupting the current sprint. The wrong answers are either too restrictive or go against the principle of adapting to changes.

Correct Answer: Emphasize the value of adaptive planning and promote the benefits of iterative progress.

The principal responsibility of a Scrum Master is to drive the Agile principles in the team and make sure the team understands and follow those principles. The answer 'Emphasize the value of adaptive planning and promote the benefits of iterative progress.' is the best possible answer as it is inline with the Agile mentality. A Scrum Master should encourage the team to plan adaptively, respond to changes swiftly and understand the benefits of iterative progress. As for the rest of the answers, 'Dictate the work priorities for the team.' is incorrect because dictating work contradicts with the Agile principle of self-organizing teams. The response 'Ignore the issue as it doesn't impact the Scrum Master's responsibilities.' is not the correct approach, as a Scrum Master should always address such issues and guide the team in the right direction. Lastly, 'Advise the team to work overtime to meet their deadlines.' is not a healthy practice for Agile teams, as Agile principle emphasizes on sustainable development.
