cindyfsolomon We're representing traditional product management view, but not the scrum product
owner perspective #prodmgmttalk -4:10 PM Jul 11th, 2011

cindyfsolomon @lancedknight says product owner is NOT the customer, the product manager
is #prodmgmttalk -4:11 PM Jul 11th, 2011

imusicmash @prodmgmttalk PM in scrum, amongst other non-scrum related activities and roles, has
the role of being product owner. #prodmgmttalk -4:12 PM Jul 11th, 2011

people?#prodmgmttalk -4:13 PM Jul 11th, 2011

cindyfsolomon Welcome @imusicmash @Beta_Boy Today's questions are athttp://on.fb.me/qxBWAi on
Q1 #prodmgmttalk -4:13 PM Jul 11th, 2011

rcauvin Product owner role includes more tactical responsibility, day-to-day prioritization. Still customer
proxy, though. #prodmgmttalk -4:13 PM Jul 11th, 2011

ErikaLAndersen Product owner single wringable neck of project, prioritizes requirements...
See http://bit.ly/AvDJ #prodmgmttalk -4:13 PM Jul 11th, 2011

ProdMgmtTalk Acc to @lancedknight - Product Owner & Product Manager could be the same person
depending on the size of the company #prodmgmttalk -4:14 PM Jul 11th, 2011

VFigatelix @brainmates @wapolanco @ProdMgmtTalk and do we have 2 b experts in#agile 2 be a
customer? #prodmgmttalk -4:14 PM Jul 11th, 2011

rcauvin @nickcoster #prodmgmt & product owner are different roles w/ some overlap. Can be played
by the same person. #prodmgmttalk -4:14 PM Jul 11th, 2011

StacyLeidwinger In my org I am both - it is tough but reality of our size @nickcoster Do we assume
that the PM and ProdOwner are 2 diff people #prodmgmttalk -4:14 PM Jul 11th, 2011

ProdMgmtTalk Absolutely not acc to @lancedkninght RT @VFigatelix - we have 2 b experts in #agile 2
be a customer? #prodmgmttalk -4:15 PM Jul 11th, 2011

imusicmash @nickcoster no, I think PO is just one of many roles a PM has. Should be same person
except perhaps in large co #prodmgmttalk -4:15 PM Jul 11th, 2011

wapolanco Some orgs have a business analyst in #agile who plays the role of prod owner. Further
clarifies reqs, manages comm, documents. #prodmgmttalk -4:16 PM Jul 11th, 2011

http://bit.ly/pYa8yx #prodmgmt #agile #prodmgmttalk -4:16 PM Jul 11th, 2011

ProdMgmtTalk @imusicmash A PO needs to be available for prioritization but Prod M needs to be out of
the office seeking customer input #prodmgmttalk -4:17 PM Jul 11th, 2011

wapolanco @imusicmash @nickcoster Size of the org shouldn't matter. Ideally should be two diff
people #prodmgmttalk -4:17 PM Jul 11th, 2011

cindyfsolomon Q2 If a product manager is acting like a product owner in scrum, do they have time to
interview customers? #prodmgmttalk -4:17 PM Jul 11th, 2011

rcauvin @imusicmash Possible to also perform the strategic responsibilities of #prodmgmt, but demanding of
time. #prodmgmttalk -4:17 PM Jul 11th, 2011

nickcoster imho ProdManager and ProdOwner Should be 2 diff people that work closely together. Just
saying. #prodmgmttalk -4:17 PM Jul 11th, 2011

StacyLeidwinger @imusicmash I disagree it should be same role - PO's must be more day2day where as PMs
can spend significant time in the field #prodmgmttalk -4:17 PM Jul 11th, 2011

VFigatelix RT @nickcoster: Do we always assume that the ProdManager and ProdOwner are 2 diff
people? #prodmgmttalk -4:18 PM Jul 11th, 2011

brainmates Agree but its an ideal RT @wapolanco: @imusicmash @nickcoster Size of org shouldnt matter.
Ideally should be two diff people #prodmgmttalk -4:18 PM Jul 11th, 2011

rcauvin Q2: As I mentioned previously, PO is tactical, #prodmgmt more strategic. Time consuming to
perform both roles. #prodmgmttalk -4:18 PM Jul 11th, 2011

cindyfsolomon RT @rcauvin: Q2: As I mentioned previously, PO is tactical,#prodmgmt more strategic. Time
consuming to perform both roles.#prodmgmttalk -4:19 PM Jul 11th, 2011

MacMyDay @wapolanco @imusicmash @nickcoster But practically it will usually be one person with two
hats. #prodmgmttalk -4:19 PM Jul 11th, 2011

imusicmash Has anyone seen the role of a business analyst or 'jr. owner' as go-between PO and
engineering? #prodmgmttalk -4:19 PM Jul 11th, 2011

can't set accurate priorities #prodmgmttalk -4:22 PM Jul 11th, 2011

wapolanco A2: Difficult to succeed @ both roles. Orgs save $ w/one body but at what cost? If 1 person, then
reduce prod scope. #prodmgmttalk -4:22 PM Jul 11th, 2011

Backlog Mgr or Backlog Owner. #prodmgmttalk -4:41 PM Jul 11th, 2011

responsibility lines. #ProdMgmtTalk -4:53 PM Jul 11th, 2011

ProdMgmtTalk Acc to @lancedknight POs should not have P&L responsibility. Product Managers

rcauvin Missing from this discussion: how #prodmgmt & PO must coordinate for iterative feedback loops that
inform requirements.#prodmgmttalk -4:55 PM Jul 11th, 2011

ProdMgmtTalk Acc to @lancedknight - Each company needs to find their own
way... @ErikaLAndersen @jidoctor #prodmgmttalk -4:55 PM Jul 11th, 2011

nickmuldoon RT @rcauvin: @nickmuldoon Good point. #prodmgmt as single point of contact w/ prospects is not
necessarily the best model. #prodmgmttalk -4:57 PM Jul 11th, 2011

nickcoster RT @rcauvin: Missing from this discussion: how #prodmgmt & PO must coordinate for iterative feedback
loops that inform requirements. #prodmgmttalk -4:57 PM Jul 11th, 2011

imusicmash We're hiring a PM (who can also be PO) reporting, analytics, data viz background a must. Please pass
on http://bit.ly/i9LqYM #prodmgmttalk -4:57 PM Jul 11th, 2011

cindyfsolomon Acc to @lancedknight re:@StacyLeidwinger Ken Schwaber, Scrum founder, disagree w/key to agile
is 1 person & title has to go #prodmgmttalk -4:57 PM Jul 11th, 2011

StewartRogers Slide to easier tactical activities. RT @ProdMgmtTalk: Q5: What are the downfalls of the PO and PM
being one and the same? #prodmgmttalk -4:58 PM Jul 11th, 2011

rcauvin @imusicmash Buckingham & Coffman say hire people based on talent, not so much for
experience. http://bit.ly/dAitdw #prodmgmttalk -4:58 PM Jul 11th, 2011

ProdMgmtTalk Final words fr @lancedknight - This debate must continue... Each company needs to define this for
themsleves #prodmgmttalk -4:58 PM Jul 11th, 2011

MacMyDay @saeedwkhan @stacyleidwinger And Backlog Manager sounds a bit dodgy + might not really say all
about the role #prodmgmttalk -4:58 PM Jul 11th, 2011

2011http://pcampmelbourne.com/ #pcampmelb #prodmgmttalk -5:00 PM Jul 11th, 2011

saeedwkhan @stacyleidwinger bcuz 1 person almost never 'owns' priorities. Scrum needs to acknowledge
that. PO is a bad role title #prodmgmttalk -5:01 PM Jul 11th, 2011

MacMyDay @jidoctor It's probably because we all have different organisational setups, but yes it's
interesting #prodmgmttalk -5:01 PM Jul 11th, 2011

ProdMgmtTalk Thanks guys. Great chat. Speak next week. #prodmgmttalk -5:01 PM Jul 11th, 2011

reorgco RT @rcauvin: @saeedwkhan In a healthy org, there really is no single person who owns the product.
The team owns it. #prodmgmttalk

cindyfsolomon Please blog about your insights from today's talk - summarize salient points from your
perspective or choose 1 issue & rant! #prodmgmttalk -5:08 PM Jul 11th, 2011

reorgco RT @nickmuldoon: I see the PO as a facilitator not just a conduit. The team needs to communicate
with the customer to understand. #prodmgmttalk -5:09 PM Jul 11th, 2011

saeedwkhan Thx all for good discussion and thx to @aircanada for delayed flight that let me participate
