Explanation

Scrum-of-Scrums is specifically designed to coordinate dependencies, blockers, and integration points across multiple Scrum teams working on the same product - making C the correct answer. It's a scaled synchronization mechanism where typically one representative (often the Scrum Master or a technical lead) from each team attends to surface cross-team impediments.

• A is wrong because Scrum-of-Scrums is team-to-team coordination, not an upward reporting structure for management.
• B is wrong because it deliberately uses representatives, not all team members - bringing everyone together defeats the purpose of keeping the meeting focused and efficient.
• D is wrong because it has no relation to project kick-offs or geography; it's an ongoing ceremony throughout delivery.

Memory tip: Think of Scrum-of-Scrums as a "Scrum between Scrums" - just as a Daily Scrum syncs one team, a Scrum-of-Scrums syncs the teams themselves, one level up.
