you will contact PO or stakeholder (for sure the case will make it easy to solve
the questions)

what is reason for that and make sure both teams understand the
project vision and scope.

Synchronous communication is when people are focused continuously
until the communication is finished. Asynchronous communication is
using a pattern that allows for focusing on something else while waiting
for the other person to formulate a response. Increasing asynchronous
communication is a good place to start.

value quadrant, ..etc.]

in an Agile context. The most common ways of doing this are with an
explicit backlog item, as Acceptance Criteria, or as part of the team’s
Definition of Done.
