Renaming Scrum Master
Renaming the Scrum Master role. On my team, we’re discussing “scrum facilitator” or “scrum enabler.” I asked twitter for ideas and here’s what you all came up with.
Suggestions
- Scrum facilitator
- Scrum coach (Jay Bazuzi: I want to discourage thinking of the role as “keeper of the backlog, scheduler of the meetings.”)
- Scrum leader
- Scrum guide
- Scrum moderator
- Scrum wrangler
- Scrum navigator
- Scrum curator
- Scrum ordinator
- Scrum conductor
- Agile coach
- Flow coach
- Team facilitator
- Team coach
- Team enabler
- Team champion
- Process Guardian
- Value stream manager
- Driver
- Servant leader
- Scrum enabler
- Agility advocate
Personally, I’m liking Scrum Facilitator ™
And if you need a laugh, here are the more fun suggestions:
- Ceremonial leader
- Scrumpire
- Scrummers
- Scrummees
- Scrum diddly umptuous
- Scrum-i-kanban-agilistic-xp-lean-idocious, even though the sound of it is something quite precocious.
- Scrumbag
- Chief Cat Herder
- Head Plate Spinner
- Ringleader of the Process
- Captain Delicious
- S-crummy-licious
