As a Scrum trainer and coach, I have seen first-hand the struggles that many Scrum Masters face in leading their teams. It's not uncommon for them to feel uncertain about their role, particularly when working with high-performing teams right from the start after getting CSM or PSM certified.

However, the truth is that the role of the Scrum Master is not just about managing mundane tasks, generating tickets and labels in Jira or Rally and burn charts, but rather it is about leading teams to success through the application of effective leadership skills. This book, Scrum Leadership: 5 Levels of Leadership for Agile Success, was written with the aim of providing Scrum Masters with the guidance and tools they need to lead their teams to greatness. The book is based on my experiences, insights, and learnings as an Agile coach and trainer, and it provides practical advice and techniques for leading teams effectively. The five levels of leadership outlined in this book are designed to help Scrum Masters understand the cycle of life within the Scrum team and the importance of developing great leadership skills day by day. From collaborative leadership to results-oriented leadership, this book provides a comprehensive guide to the different leadership styles that Scrum Masters can use to help their teams achieve Agile success.

Whether you are a new or experienced Scrum Master, this book is an essential resource for anyone looking to improve their leadership skills and take their team to the next level. So, dive in, learn, and become the best Scrum Master and Agilist you can be!
