Pratik suggests that, for us to achieve success in our role as Scrum Masters, we must focus on a single purpose. As Scrum Masters, we can help the teams we work with understand that, and define their own purpose. Pratik also suggests a few questions that we can use to help understand and define that purpose for the team.
In this segment we refer to Vince Lombardi, an American Football coach, and the lessons we can take from his approach to the game.
