Additionally, the course covers important aspects such as Agile metrics and leadership behaviors, helping Product Owners track progress, drive improvements, and lead teams effectively. By the end of the course, learners will have a thorough understanding of the Product Owner role and be prepared to contribute to the success of Agile projects.
