ScrumMaster : Right Action — PSM1 #8
#8 . Which of the following is a right action from the Scrum Master in response to a Product Owner who has problems managing the Product Backlog?
- Ask the Development Team to help the Product Owner understand the dependencies among items to be used in ordering them
- Help the Product Owner order the items
- Extend the Sprint, so that the Product Owner has more time ordering items
- Ask the customer to order the items instead of the Product Owner
Solution :
Help the Product Owner order the items
Explanation :
“The Scrum Master is supposed to know the tools and techniques, and to help everyone in that regard. However, it’s only about helping, training, coaching, and consulting, rather than taking over.”
Remember that we’re not supposed to have dependencies (at least not many dependencies) among items; so, dependencies are not a basis for ordering the backlog. The only basis is the business value.
