#2. The Development Team has decided not to have Daily Scrums. What should the Scrum Master do?

  1. Convince them to have Daily Scrums
  2. Order them to have Daily Scrums
  3. Escalate the issue to the Product Owner
  4. Respect their decision, because they are self-organized
  5. Escalate the issue to the senior management

Solution :

1.Convince them to have Daily Scrums(A)

We should always have all the Scrum roles, events, and artifacts, as described in the Scrum Guide.

The Scrum Master is responsible for ensuring that the framework is understood and enacted entirely.

Otherwise, the Scrum Master should train and coach the members, and convince them to do the right thing; s/he doesn’t have the organizational authority to “order” them to do the right thing, because they are supposed to be self-organized. For the same reason, we do not have an escalation system in Scrum.
