Actual exam question for Scrum's PSPO-II exam
Question #: 18
Topic #: 1
[All PSPO-II Questions]

Which of the following activities should a Product Owner never do?

(choose the best answer)

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B

According to the Professional Scrum Product Owner II certification guide1, the Sprint Goal is the single objective for the Sprint. It is a commitment made by the Scrum Team during Sprint Planning. The Sprint Goal provides guidance to the Developers on why it is valuable to build a coherent Increment. The Product Owner proposes how the product could increase its value and utility in the current Sprint. The whole Scrum Team then collaborates to define a Sprint Goal that communicates why the Sprint is valuable to stakeholders. The Product Owner should not dictate the Sprint Goal, but rather collaborate with the Developers and the Scrum Master to create a shared understanding and alignment.The other options are not activities that a Product Owner should never do, because they are either part of the Product Owner's accountabilities (A, C, D) or may be done in collaboration with others (A, D).Reference:1: Professional Scrum Product Owner II Certification | Scrum.org

Haha, this question is like a Scrum Master's worst nightmare! Option B is definitely the correct answer. The Product Owner should be more like a coach, not a referee.

Wow, this question is a real brain-teaser! I'd have to go with B as well. The Product Owner should be a visionary, not a dictator. Let the team do their thing, right?

This is a tricky one, but I think the answer is B. The Product Owner should guide the team, not dictate their every move. That's just micromanagement, and it's not good for the team's creativity or productivity.

I agree with Melina. The Product Owner's role is to define the Product Goal and the overall product backlog, not to micromanage the Sprint details.

Option B is the correct answer. The Product Owner should never dictate the Sprint Goal, as that's the responsibility of the Development Team.

I think C) Accept work done during the Sprint is also something a Product Owner should never do, as it goes against the principle of self-organizing teams.

C) Accept work done during the Sprint. Come on, how else is the Product Owner going to complain about the team's velocity?

Hmm, I'm going with B) Dictate the Sprint Goal. The team should have some autonomy, right? Unless the Product Owner wants to join the team for a round of 'Scrum Jenga'.

I think D) Establish a Product Goal is the best answer. The Product Owner should be setting the direction, not micromanaging the team.
