-There are three roles in Scrum: Team(s), Product Owner, and ScrumMaster. This latter role is NOT a project manager in any traditional sense. The ScrumMaster is a process coach -- someone who is a master of the Scrum method and helps the teams and product owner apply it and maximize value with it.
+There are three roles in Scrum: Team(s), Product Owner, and ScrumMaster. This latter role is NOT a project manager. The ScrumMaster is a coach and teacher (to all others in the organization) of the Scrum framework and how to obtain value with it, a team-builder, and a servant to help others  -- someone who is a ''master of the Scrum framework'' who helps the self-managing Team and the Product Owner apply it and maximize value with it.

-Agile management is as radically different from traditional project management as agile processes are different from traditional methodologies. Rather than plan, instruct and direct, the agile coach facilitates, coaches and leads. This person is called a ScrumMaster in the Scrum agile process to denote the difference and remind the person filling this role of the new responsibilities. Accepted participants learn how to be a ScrumMaster and how to make a development team, a product group, or an organization agile. Exercises, case studies, and examples used to bring home the realization of how to be a ScrumMaster instead of a project manager.
+Agile management and its implications for a new organizational design are radically different from traditional project management and organizational systems for development. Rather than plan, instruct and direct, the ScrumMaster teaches, observes, facilitates, serves. And the organization is based on self-organizing/managing principles and empirical process control rather than command-and-control, and defined processes.

-* Agile and Scrum Overview
+* '''Agile Overview''' — Agile product development frameworks aim to increase flexibility or agility in the development organization, and thereby enable business agility. They emphasize increasing transparency, inspection, and adaption, and flexible workers. By far, Scrum is the most popular agile framework, with good reason. We examine some of the big ideas.
