The Daily Scrum is a short, team-owned planning event where Developers inspect progress toward the Sprint Goal and adapt their plan for the next 24 hours. It is not a status report to the Scrum Master. When the Scrum Master conducts a round-robin interrogation, it undermines self-management, shifts focus from outcomes to reporting, and can discourage collaborative planning. Correct practice centers on the work and the Sprint Goal: identify impediments, decide who will pair or swarm, and re-sequence tasks to finish items to the Definition of Done. The Scrum Master’s role is to ensure the event occurs, coach on effectiveness, and remove impediments identified—not to assign tasks or demand status. Visual boards, WIP limits, and concise coordination make the meeting outcome-oriented. This aligns with CAPM’s agile objectives of empiricism (transparency, inspection, adaptation) and flow (finish before starting more), leading to improved predictability and quality without ceremony bloat or command-and-control behaviors.
