Professional Scrum Master I (PSM I)Scrum FrameworkEasy
A Scrum Team is consistently delivering 'Done' Increments, but the Product Owner feels that the stakeholders are not adequately informed about the product's progress and future direction. Which Scrum Event is the most appropriate for the Product Owner to address this concern?
- ASprint Review
- BDaily Scrum
- CSprint Planning
- DSprint Retrospective
Show answer & explanationAnswer & explanation
Correct answer: A. Sprint Review
The Sprint Review is specifically designed for the Scrum Team and stakeholders to inspect the Increment and adapt the Product Backlog, making it the ideal event for the Product Owner to inform stakeholders and gather feedback on product progress and future direction.
Why the other options are wrong
- B. The Daily Scrum is for Developers to plan their work for the next 24 hours, not for stakeholder communication.
- C. Sprint Planning focuses on selecting work for the upcoming Sprint, not stakeholder communication about overall progress.
- D. The Sprint Retrospective focuses on improving the Scrum Team's process, not external stakeholder communication.
Sprint Review Purpose
The Sprint Review is an informal event where the Scrum Team and stakeholders inspect the Increment and adapt the Product Backlog if needed.
- Occurs at the end of the Sprint.
- Collaborative working session, not a presentation.
- Maintains transparency on product progress.
Memory trick: Reviewing progress with the crowd.
