Dude where's my backlog?! Amplifying Product Owner effectiveness

Duration 60 minutes

"Sergey, I just uploaded the backlog to the server, sorry it is so late, but I have had too many things to do."

"Thanks Janet, I looked at the backlog and we have many questions on these items, some need a lot of clarification. I don't think we can get through all these questions in the 2 hours we have with you tomorrow. Can we get more time?" "Sergey I will be there for the 2 hours but then I am travelling, and after that I won't have overlap with you timezone for the week..."

Will Sergey ever get good user stories in his backlog? Will Janet ever find the time to write those stories and get team feedback?

While Scrum is great for the team, it is silent on how the Product Owner should work. Yet the product owner's work, good user stories, are key to a successful sprint, and a successful project.

Robin Dymond will present techniques to help your remote product owners. These techniques will help them organize their work, create transparency, and improve their focus. Like a Scrum team need tools to help them self organize and get to done every sprint, a product owner can be much better with a simple set of tools to manage their work and collaboration with the team. Come and see these techniques in action during this lively and example filled presentation.
