In this episode of the Scrum.org Community Podcast, guest host Lindsay Velecina welcomes Professional Scrum Trainer Simon Reindl to answer listener questions from his recent webinar, “How do the Scrum Accountabilities Work at Scale – Practical Steps for Delivery.”

Drawing on years of hands-on experience, Simon breaks down Scaled Scrum and portfolio management, explores how many Scrum Masters you really need, and offers guidance on applying frameworks like Nexus, Scrum at Scale, and even SAFe with intention—not dogma.

From structuring teams to improving flow and making value measurable, Simon shares practical insights to help organizations scale Scrum without losing sight of what really matters: delivering value through empowered teams and continuous learning.

Key Topics:

Scaled Scrum and Portfolio Management
How many Scrum Masters? It depends.
Value Stream Mapping to uncover flow and bottlenecks
Using metrics that matter (hint: it’s not velocity)
The art of being a persistent (and sometimes annoying) Scrum Master

Whether you're scaling up or just getting started, this conversation will help you do it with clarity and purpose.
