During a library catalog agile pilot, every department head claims to be a product owner and forces conflicting priorities into the backlog. What discipline should the BA reinforce?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
If everyone is the product owner, nobody is—and the backlog turns into a wish list food fight. One accountable owner keeps prioritization honest for the library catalog pilot.
Full Explanation
Role discipline requires a clear product-owner accountability for ordering work. Multiple competing “owners” destroy prioritization and dilute decision rights. Reinforcing a single-threaded backlog authority supports predictable delivery without requiring specialist agile certifications.
