Product Backlog Refinement: Who's Involved? (And Why!)

#106. You and the Microsoft Business Apps product owner are on Teams going through the product backlog. You two are working on it together because that’s how it has always been done. And yet, when you look back at the last few sprints, you realize that is not getting the desired results.

It’s not your fault; it’s a systemic problem. The problem is that it is incredibly common for only one stakeholder -- the product owner -- to be involved in backlog refinement, but the ideal would be if all the relevant people were there!

If you've been asking yourself who else should be involved in backlog refinement, you’re in good company—most Dynamics 365 and Power Platform application teams need a little help to come up with the answer.
