The Declaration of Interdependence – Part 11
Increase Return on Investment
Firstly the Product Owner must ensure that the product achieves a return on investment by focusing effort on delivering value. The continuous delivery of value increases customer satisfaction as well as increasing the return on investment. By delivering incrementally, realising value can be achieved earlier, while identifying and dealing with risk can occur sooner. The Product Owner must prioritise the Product Backlog to ensure that the highest business value features are addressed, therefore enhancing the return on investment.
Deliver Reliable Results
Maximising customer involvement increases the chances of delivering reliable results and agile therefore promotes active customer involvement. The Product Owner must engage the customers through frequent interactions and also encourages a sense shared ownership within the product. The Product Owner represents the customer and is therefore the Voice of the Customer within the Scrum Team. As the Voice of the Customer the Product Owner must portray the customers perspective, while also defining the Product Vision, and providing the acceptance criteria for the prioritised product backlog.
