- Focus on being a Product Owner and the Doing will be easier
We often talk about what the Product Owner Must “DO” – they must own the Product Backlog, they must manage the product backlog and the priorities, they must refine the backlog, they must answer the team’s questions. Let’s focus on what a Product Owner must BE? What are some traits that will help us become effective PO’s?
Based on these traits we will work through how to rate yourself or your Product Owners on each trait. We will see where your PO’s need to focus on to become more effective. We will review what a Product Owner does? What is your PO doing now? How can our PO’s be more effective in creating value in the product, in engaging with customers and stakeholders and in working with the Scrum Teams. We will wrap the talk with a conversation to address questions around the role of the PO.
