In some teams, the division of work leads to having people who are the "heroes" for some part of the product. This siloing of expertise leads to many anti-patterns, and as Scrum Masters we must be aware of those, and be ready to act and help teams overcome the problems that come with this "hero" anti-pattern.
In this episode we talk about #MobProgramming and the Promiscuous Pairing paper by Arlo Belshee (PDF download).
Featured Book of the Week: Training from the Back of the Room by Sharon Bowman The Scrum Master's work includes training and workshop facilitation.
