Topic

ScrumMasters for distributed teams need help. As more corporations offshore/nearshore their development efforts, ScrumMasters bear the burden of facilitating distributed Scrum or Agile without being prepared for its unique challenges. While ScrumMaster Certifications and local user groups do provide guidance, they are often focused on collocated scenarios. In this talk, I will convey my personal experiences of being a ScrumMaster for geographically distributed teams and explain what steps you can take to be successful.
