This reading path introduces the role of the Product Owner in Lean-Agile.


The Product Owner is the pivotal role in enabling the seamless flow of
development from value to product.
The Product Owner (PO) is the person who connects two key functions and
associated groups of people: the ones who identify what value is needed (the
Business) and the ones who determine how and implement it (development
team).

 To the development team, the Product Owner represents the enterprise


Business value and the needs of Program Level stakeholders, defining and
prioritizing the team backlog.
 To the Business, the Product Owner represents the development team: the
value that has been realized and the needs they have.
The Product Owner is the proxy for the customer, the go between for those
who define value at the Minimum Business Increment level, primarily product
managers, and those who implement value into working software, the
development teams. Seen this way, the Product Owner is like the
transmission of a car.

 The engine of the car is those who define the value. The wheels are those
who implement value.
 The Product Owner connects the engine to the wheels by answering the
development team’s questions about the value they will implement. The
Product Owner is the team’s main source for insights into customer and
stakeholder motivation. The Product Owner helps the team know just what
the end customer or the enterprise is expecting of their products.
 The Product Owner connects the wheels to the engine by feeding back
implementation issues to those who define the value. The definers of value
may be able to redefine it in a way that is simpler or less expensive or
even simply possible to implement. This also lets the definers of value
know when something is going to be delivered later or at higher cost due to
technical difficulties.
