One of them is the role of the person responsible for a product, which is –in scrum jargon- called the Product Owner. This first part is about the Product Owners’ tasks, responsibilities and personal capabilities. A second article will ...

Many companies have made the change and proven that it works. But is it easy? No, Scrum is not easy.
