#TrueScrumMaster 4: Living the Scrum Values
Scrum Masters are expected to teach the Scrum values to developers, product owners, and those who work with them. But how well do you, as a Scrum Master, live up to these values yourself? In this session you'll assess yourself using a simple sliding scale, which will be introduced in the session.

A spirited scrum master is Feste, the court jester in Twelfth Night, speaking truth to power. She is an Old Testament prophet, leading the people back to their true path, and she is Jiminy Cricket in Pinocchio, sitting on the shoulder of the organisation, its whispering conscience. Historically, there has been no role in an organisation quite like this one.
