The core role of a Scrum Master is to act as a servant-leader and facilitator for a Scrum team, ensuring that the team can work efficiently, follow Agile principles, and continuously improve. They are not a manager or decision-maker, but rather someone who removes obstacles, protects the team, and promotes effective Scrum practices.
