give input for sprint planningmore about stories

(Stereo?)Typically

Things the customers want

Product Owner processes, and churns out stories

I observed that PO’s should

1 Spend less time formalising storiesSpend more time talking with the team.

2 Provide feedback to the team about product knowledge

3 Give feedback to the team on product implementation options

That is ...

Things the customers want

Product Owner and team have lots of conversations

Product owner still prioritizes needs

Team writes stories and scenarios

Team commits, builds and delivers

Not Started In Progress Done

There’s a common thread here

1 Spend less time formalising storiesSpend more time talking with the team.

2 Provide feedback to the team about product knowledge

3 Give feedback to the team on product implementation options

By itself, this may not be a problem

Product Owner deals with lots of diverse information

Customer

Yet, is focused a lot on the team

The conflicting life of a PO

high bandwidth channel

Too much noise to make decisions

too small signal to make decisions

low bandwidth channel

What can the PO do about this?

Don’t stand between the team and the customer,but create context for each conversation
