I am a Scrum Master at a large organisation, in previous roles when doing this, I had a lot more influence over continuous improvement via agile coaching.



Here the Scrum Masters proposals (irrespective on if they have shown them to work) after working with the team are often overlooked in favour of Senior management decisions. Hence, I have been reduced to a delivery management role where I am responsible for maintaining someone elses process.



I plan to stay at the company for an additional year, but have the following questions:



  • Is this normal behavior in large complex organisations? Where SMs + Team have little say in management processes?


  • How can I gain more influence. Ideas are taken seriously based on job title, irrespective on if you have proven something to have worked.


  • I do not like the idea of forcefully adopting other people's processes without having say, should I rock the boat?

  • You should rock the boat. EVERY job in software, from checking to programming to your role, is shitty. In answer to your question "is such pathetic/bad behavior normal practice in software organizations" the answer is YES AND HOW. What you describe is the ubiquitous norm.
