Explanation

The Development Team is responsible for managing its own work during a Sprint. Scrum relies on self-organization - the Development Team decides how to accomplish the Sprint Goal and tracks its own progress. The Scrum Master facilitates and removes impediments but does not manage the team's work. The Product Owner manages the Product Backlog and sprint goals but does not manage day-to-day sprint execution. This self-management principle is fundamental to Scrum and enables the team to optimize productivity and quality.
