Self-Management — Professional Scrum Master I (PSM I) Practice Questions
Self-management in Scrum means that the Scrum Team as a whole chooses who does what, when, and how, rather than relying on direction from outside the team. This is distinct from self-organization in that the 2020 Scrum Guide replaced the term self-organizing with self-managing to emphasize that teams manage not just how they work but also who does what work. PSM I candidates must understand that self-management applies to the entire Scrum Team and that the Scrum Master's role includes coaching the team and organization on this principle.
