They do this by helping everyone understand Scrum theory and practice, both within the Scrum Team and the organization.” — Scrum Guide 2020And:“The Scrum Master is accountable for the Scrum Team’s effectiveness. They do this by enabling the Scrum Team to improve its practices, within the Scrum framework.” — Scrum Guide 2020To be able to help people understand Scrum, you need to have a solid understanding of Scrum yourself.
