Why this topic matters

Studying Scrum Roles properly is important because it strengthens your overall understanding of the Professional Scrum Master I (PSM I) certification. Good topic-level preparation makes it easier to answer both theoretical and practical questions with more confidence and speed.

What you need to know

Scrum defines three accountabilities: Product Owner, Scrum Master and Developers.

The Product Owner maximizes product value and manages the Product Backlog. The Scrum Master helps the team and the organization understand and apply Scrum. Developers create the Increment during each Sprint.

For the exam, it is important not to confuse the Scrum Master with a traditional project manager: the Scrum Master does not command the team, but facilitates, removes impediments and promotes Scrum.
