The old saying for the agile or scrum team is to be close to the work. We hear this a lot, but what does that really mean? Especially if we are a product owner or a product manager trying to understand what problems we want to solve. When we were in the business of discovering the unknown and solving problems, we really need to understand what it is we are actually doing. By developing and practicing the keys or skill sets that I am outlining in these episodes, your practice as a product owner or product manager in the actual space will become really effective.

Season five unbelievable. Everybody needs a good retrospective for the team and I do as well. This episode is for scrum masters, and product owners. In this episode, I’ll share a quick retrospective and insight to the upcoming season 6 of Planet Product Owner. I’ll also recap and summarize a previous episode for the 3 C’s of coaching for the scrum master, Amd finally, I’ll introduce three focus areas for the product owner. Product Owners can have lots of distractions that take away from adding value to their practice, products and ultimately their customers. By narrowing the focus to the things that are most critical to our practice, we can move the needle in the right direction.

This episode will be helpful to agile product managers and product owners when figuring out a plan on how to slice the feature, epic or larger body of work.
One of the challenges I see alot with teams is the never-ending story. The other big challenge is not understanding the scope of testing. We need quality checks that are built in and the agile development team needs to understand a few things about this body of work when they are testing the solution.

One of the biggest things we can do as a product owner, and even as an organizational leader in the agile space is to value relationships over transactions. This episode should be a good one for anyone in agile leadership or execution as it will give some insight to the many challenges that the product owner and the agile development team face day-to-day. Challenges require a strategy to help overcome what we’re facing. Let’s revisit a few strategies that I’ve touched on in the past, but this time through a slightly different lens!?
