About this episode

This episode discusses the importance of sequencing over prioritization for product owners and teams.

I see teams struggle with the flow of value because they are either bogged down in the stories and tasks or they don't have a candle in the dark room. Hey Product Owner, you have to light that candle and show them the way. If prioritization seems like a never-ending battle or even worse you are prioritizing the wrong backlog - yes - you know the one...Then this episode is for you! This episode is great for product owners, new and old. But not just for you! Agile leaders, scrum masters, dev teams and project managers could probably steal some things from this one. Kickin it old school on this one! www.planetproductowner.org is being updated. The tests are over. Coming soon!!
