The Scrum Master is a servant-leader for the Scrum Team, who helps the team understand and enact Scrum values, principles, and practices1. The Scrum Master also facilitates Scrum events as requested or needed2. The Daily Scrum is a 15-minute event for the Developers to inspect their progress toward the Sprint Goal and adapt the Sprint Backlog as necessary[3][3] . It is a key opportunity for the Developers to plan their work for the next 24 hours and collaborate on any challenges or impediments4. The Scrum Master should coach the team on the purpose and value of the Daily Scrum, and help them find ways to make it more effective and enjoyable. The Scrum Master should also learn why the Developers want to reduce the frequency of the Daily Scrum, and work with them to address any underlying issues or concerns. The Scrum Master should not impose a decision on the team, nor delegate the decision to a vote, as these actions would undermine the self-management and empowerment of the Developers5.
