Managers have two primary tasks: (1) get the people who work for them to take initiative to solve problems and improve their own work, and (2) align the work they do to provide value for customers and prosperity for the company. The manager gets this done by taking initiative to learn and improve, to build processes that enable improvement and problem solving, and to develop subordinates and others through mentoring.
-- John Shook
And that's just the summary... noticed this as the keynote description for the
Lean Manager's Conference.

If I have a manager like that, do I still need a (Certified) Scrum Master?
I think you already know the answer to that question.
