Same Person As product owner and Product Manager Flashcards

Q

Should same person be as po and scrum master

A

It’s generally not advisable for one person to perform both the Product Owner and Scrum Master roles because each role has distinct responsibilities and focuses that can conflict with one another. The Product Owner is primarily responsible for defining and prioritizing the product backlog, focusing on maximizing value and aligning the team’s work with business goals and user needs. In contrast, the Scrum Master is a servant leader who focuses on facilitating Agile practices, coaching the team on Scrum principles, and removing obstacles to help the team work effectively and continuously improve.

Combining these roles can lead to conflicts of interest. For Example ….. ideally, these roles should remain separate to ensure clear accountability, balanced priorities, and a strong support system for the team.
