A building-permits steering committee presents a 14-month Gantt of inspection modules, integrations, and go-live weekends and labels it the product strategy. What should the Product Owner do?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
A moving-van schedule is not a reason to move. A Gantt of inspection modules says how someone hopes to ship work; it does not say which resident outcomes matter or which bets to kill. Strategy is the why and the choices—not the project plan.
Full Explanation
A delivery plan sequences output; product strategy states the value choices, positioning, and bets that justify that work. The Product Owner should refuse the relabeling and pull the conversation back to outcomes the Product Goal and backlog can serve. Accepting a Gantt as the Product Goal, abandoning Scrum for stage-gates, or turning every bar into a Sprint Goal all substitute predictive delivery control for strategy.
