Nexus Product Backlog is refined

How Planning
is Done in
Nexus?

6. The Scrum Teams pick out the
items from the refined Nexus
Product Backlog which can have
stories, tasks, business initiatives
or epics.
Each Scrum Team adds these
selected items to its own Sprint
Backlog.

7. 6 While each team maintains its
own sprint backlog, The Nexus
Sprint Backlog is formed that has
all the team's selected product
backlog items to enhance
visibility in the work being done
At the end of the sprint planning
there is a Nexus Sprint Goal that
aligns with the product goal and
describes the purpose that will
be achieved by the Nexus during
the sprint

8. Execution
1 Sprints last from 2-4 weeks.
Nexus Daily Scrum is done when
each member from the scrum
team meets with the Nexus
Team. All scrum teams have
their respective scrums with the
Nexus Team.

9. Retrospective
Activities
A Nexus Sprint Review is held at
the end of the sprint in which all
the scrum teams meet with the
Product Owner and review the
integrated increment. Scrum
teams do not have their own
sprint reviews. There is only one
collective sprint review in which
the integrated increment is the
subject.

10. 2 There is a Nexus Sprint
Retrospective which is a
collective retrospective of the
solution that has been built and
any points of improvement are
discussed with the entire nexus
and the scrum teams. The Nexus
Team and the scrum teams can
have their individual
retrospectives.
