Despite her best efforts, she realized that the team didn’t want to work with a Scrum Master. The situation was compounded by the challenges of remote work during the pandemic. Eventually, Anita made the difficult decision to step away from the team. She emphasizes the importance of seeking external perspectives and approaching situations without judgement. How do you handle a team that resists change, and when is it time to walk away? Listen in to find out!
