Haha, I can just imagine the Scrum Master trying to explain self-management to the old-school managers. Good luck with that!

D sounds tempting, but the team is new to Agile. They need some guidance to understand the principles before adapting the practices. B is the way to go.

I think the answer is B. Explaining the benefits of self-management is the best way to help the team understand the change. We need to guide them, not just force Scrum on them.
