Have you tried the "focus question" approach? Instead of 3 questions, ask ONE question that changes daily. Monday: What's your sprint goal focus? Tuesday: What's your biggest risk? etc.
@priya_scale Totally agree about the system. I'd add: most SM training programs don't teach actual coaching skills. They teach Scrum mechanics.
The Agile Coach premium is real. I rebranded from 'Scrum Master' to 'Agile Coach' and got a 20% raise without changing what I do. The market is weird.
Been there. My advice: don't call yourself a Scrum Master in the first week. Call yourself an 'improvement coach' or just 'I'm here to help.' The label carries baggage.
