Scrum Master Supervision

Details:

We Scrum Masters are often confronted with challenging situations in our daily work - in our teams, between teams, with management or other departments. The solution to the problem is not always obvious. Often it is not even in our hands to solve these problems ourselves. Although there is fortunately more and more often more than one Scrum Master in IT departments, there is often a lack of external perspectives, as everyone is part of the system. Consequences can be that conflicts are difficult to solve and the Scrum Masters act beyond their role and thus become overburdened.

What is supervision?

Our supervision group supports Scrum Masters to discuss their cases in a neutral environment and to learn from the experience of other colleagues. In contrast to an expert group, however, where experiences and tips are shared, we work with the psychodynamic approach. This approach, which focuses on unconscious dynamics, promotes emotional and purposeful thinking and offers the caseworker the opportunity to develop new associations and to give new impetus to his or her creativity.

The supervision group is exclusively for Scrum Masters and Agile Coaches who either want to discuss a current case or support a colleague. It doesn't matter if you are a case giver or a participant, everyone learns from this kind of exchange.

Depending on the size of the group, we offer one or two rounds with one case each. Carolin Metzner leads these rounds.

Carolin Metzner is currently training as a supervisor at the International Psychoanalytic University Berlin. For her, the Meet-up is an opportunity to apply knowledge and experience and to practice leading supervision groups.

Please note that supervision is neither psychotherapy nor training. Everyone takes part in the Meet-up on their own responsibility.
