| Jul 6, 2022 at 14:28 | comment | added | Thomas Owens♦ | @BestAboutMe I don't mean to say to ignore coaching from the Scrum Master. The Scrum Master shouldn't have an opinion here. The Scrum Master isn't the manager of the team. The Developers are self-organizing and self-managing. If the Developers say there is no problem with how they work, then there's no problem with how they work. Similarly, the Product Owner isn't a manager, but may have concerns if they feel the Developers are not maximizing the value they deliver. However, this concern should be toward the group of Developers and not an individual developer on the team. | |

| Jul 6, 2022 at 13:19 | comment | added | BestAboutMe | Thank you Thomas! Maybe I missunderstood something : "You can ignore the Scrum Master since they are more of a coach or guide", if we hire a coach, it is indeed to not ignore his/her feedbacks no? It is in fact a role of a servant but also leader, in my opinion, as a Scrum Master is a part of the Scrum Team, it is not logic to ignore it. | |
| Jul 6, 2022 at 12:17 | comment | added | Thomas Owens♦ | @BestAboutMe Probably. You can ignore the Scrum Master since they are more of a coach or guide. The Product Owner's concern should be about quality and rate of delivery. If they have concerns, they can go to the Developers about these. However, they should not be concerned with the performance of individual Developers. If the rest of the Developers have no issues with this, then there is no issue at all. | |
| Jul 6, 2022 at 12:12 | comment | added | BestAboutMe | Thank you Thomas! Agree 100% with all your answer, I just may say that it is a bit more "delicate" in the context of this team, this is probably not the right place to discuss it in details, but let's ask differently : what to do when the scrum master, the product owner, jira, the product manager..are all aligned to say that there is an issue, and all developers saying : "no issue" ? should we all agree and act as if no issue ? | |
