Sprint reviews have long been an important part of Scrum. They exist as a mechanism for collecting feedback on what the team has just built. The product owner then considers that feedback in determining priorities for the next sprint.

A Scrum Master should not be the conduit for all information. A good Scrum Master does not insist that all communication flow through him or her.

In Agile, we can’t fix every problem at once—but we can prioritize, iterate, and continuously improve. Agile fosters adaptability, focusing on delivering value while embracing change. Instead of perfection, we aim for progress, learning from feedback, and refining solutions over time. Small, incremental steps drive sustainable success.

Examples of protecting the team almost always involve protecting a team from an overzealous product owner who wants more, more, more done in a sprint.

Rounding up estimates can help account for unforeseen challenges, uncertainties, or potential complexities. This approach encourages teams to allocate sufficient time or resources, reduces the risk of underestimating tasks, and improves the accuracy of project planning and delivery timelines.
