It's not so black and white like that. You could have very good developers on a team with a mediocre "scrum master" or manager, who could conceivably become less productive because of it, despite best efforts to make it work. You can disagree, but I've seen it first-hand.
- Silhouette 9y agoA bad manager can typically do far more damage than any individual member of a team, but IME it's unlikely that people who are good are going to stick around for long if they're being managed by a moron, whatever that moron's oh-so-trendy job title may be. A team of developers good enough to figure out a working process for any given job without management holding their hands has plenty of better options. That aside, surely the more interesting scenario is still the reverse of the one you described: can good management leading average developers get better results from those developers by adopting certain working practices?
