by Ashish Kumar, Shijo Paul & Manjunath Rao Scrum is a practical framework to build products, provided you identify, in advance, what to build. However, even after a successful product discovery phase, you may struggle to implement the right way if your product backlog is not up to the job. Garbage in, garbage out — as the saying goes. Managing the product backlog is a full-time and continuous evolution. In this session, we will share simple techniques that can help change what can be an overwhelming and time-consuming process, to an interactive, iterative process that effectively engages team members, customers, and stakeholders. It will teach you how to develop solid techniques to help you build, prioritize, and maintain your product backlog.
