The authors of The Professional Product Owner are professional trainers. In this age, when there’s a mountain of information to learn, wouldn’t it be great if authors incorporate techniques that make learning easier and faster. The authors make learning easier by including stories throughout the book and providing wonderfully designed diagrams.
The book shows how the product owner role works within the Scrum framework. That sounds like a simple concept, yet many companies get the product owner role wrong… this book clearly explains the role. Almost all product owners would benefit from reading the book, and when teams read the book they will have a clearer view of the product development process.
The book stresses this point clear: The only way to bring value to your customer is to release software.
“So if you ever find yourself in a debate between waterfall and agile, there is only one point you need to make to upper management: When do you get value to your customer?”
The answer? When you deliver the software.
