Conference Description:

A new software process can be an invitation to fundamental change – but can also be an excuse to continue existing ineffective practices and attitudes under a new vocabulary.

The role of Product Owner In Scrum shows both of these tendencies in the field.

• What constitutes effective product ownership?
• What tools, attitudes, metaphors, and skills contribute to excellence in product ownership?
• What can team members and managers do to help product ownership deliver on its promise of accountability, responsibility, and clear communication?

Please join the SD Times Virtual Conference to learn all the answers – and best practices.

The Product Owner is a critical role in Scrum, and it is hard to find a good Product Owner (PO).

Consequently, many fledgling Scrum teams report Product Owner related impediments such as “We don’t have a PO” or “our PO is never available” or “the wrong guy is PO” or “we don’t agree with the Product Owner’s priorities.”

There are a number of things a Scrum team can do to address these types of problem.

The first step is to stop blaming the Product Owner.

We’ll look at some typical “Product Owner problems”, discuss the real underlying problem, and identify concrete actions the team can take to solve or at least mitigate the problem.
