Explanation

Scrum-of-Scrums is a coordination mechanism designed specifically to synchronize the work of multiple Scrum teams working on the same product, making C correct - representatives from each team meet to surface dependencies, blockers, and integration issues that cross team boundaries.

Why the distractors are wrong:

• A is wrong because Scrum-of-Scrums is a team-to-team coordination tool, not a management reporting ceremony - that's closer to the purpose of a sprint review or stakeholder update.
• B is wrong because only designated representatives (typically Scrum Masters or team leads) attend, not all members of all teams - bringing everyone together would defeat the purpose of having separate teams.
• D is wrong because Scrum-of-Scrums has nothing to do with project kick-offs or geographic scope; it's an ongoing coordination practice, not a one-time event.

Memory tip: Think of Scrum-of-Scrums as a "team of teams" standup - just as a daily standup coordinates individuals within one team, Scrum-of-Scrums coordinates teams within a scaled program.
