Challenges of product owner in a new agile team
summary
Product owner explicitly owns the product and is ultimately accountable for survival, not just backlog grooming. Early phase demands state‑of‑the‑art research, an initial prototype pushed to Git, and tactics to prevent analysis paralysis: checklists, a visual “battle map,” or a single technical lead. Enforce acceptance criteria, collect capacity data, plan only 80% of team time and leave a 20% buffer, require active stakeholders or drop silent ones, and drive releases through prioritized demos to get customer feedback.
