Why is this Course?
When I started with the role of Product Owner, I failed in my first attempt. Most of my focus was on the on-time delivery and not giving enough time for creating user stories. With consultation from one of the experienced product owner, I started investing 40-50% of my total effort to write good user stories with clear acceptance criteria. That is the single most beneficial task that yield result for me. As a product owner, it not only gave better control over delivery predictability but also the velocity (users stories delivered per sprint) of the scrum team improved. So I created this course to help other Product Owners, Scrum Masters, and Scrum teams.
