Stakeholders in Scrum

In our 100th episode, we dive into the vital role of stakeholders in Scrum. We explore who stakeholders are—anyone impacted by the team's work, like customers, internal leaders, or other teams—and why they matter. Weak product ownership can lead to building features that miss stakeholder needs, so we discuss balancing their involvement. While we encourage stakeholders to join sprint reviews, we caution against interference in meetings like the Daily Scrum. Transparency and communication are crucial to aligning expectations, and we highlight the product owner’s role in managing requests and saying 'not yet' when needed. Join us as we share tips for managing your stakeholder relationships!
