Listen "The Role of Scrum Master in the Advent of AI"

Episode Synopsis


Worried that AI will replace Scrum Masters or Agile Coaches? In this deep-dive, Steve explains why your role is more valuable than ever — and exactly how to future-proof your career by doubling down on the human strengths AI can’t replicate.
You’ll learn:

What AI can’t do: relationships, facilitation, cultural change, coaching, trust-building.
How to prove your value: influence leaders, land small wins, make impact visible beyond ceremonies. 
Meeting tactics that get you noticed: the “listen, note, reflect, approach” loop to unlock high-level workshops.
Career safety through mastery: communication, presence, authority, and facilitation that make you indispensable.

Practical actions:
1. At your next portfolio/leadership meeting: switch off distractions and listen end-to-end — capture stated and unstated problems.
2. Journal your observations, reflect, generate options, then approach a leader with curiosity (not solutions).
3. Run a problem-solving workshop to co-create outcomes and showcase your impact.
