A Scrum Master Job Description

I just read an excellent blog post titled, "A Scrum Master Job Description," on one of my favorite blogs, Illustrated Agile. In it, Len Lagestee describes the role of a scrum master from the view of the team and the company, based on their needs rather than a checklist of to-dos.

Here is my favorite part:

Intentionally design resiliency.

• You know how fast the world is changing and the way we work together today may be different tomorrow.
• You understand that your team, because of how quickly things are changing, may be touching the fringe of chaos at times and you are comfortable with this.
• You are a student of many frameworks, methodologies, approaches, concepts,and perhaps, cutting-edge organizational design ideas. This allows you to choose from a variety of techniques to help strengthen your team through the chaos.
